From Jack Irons to Matt Cameron
Hi there!
"04/98 - Jack Irons leaves PJ; Matt Cameron (former Soundgarden drummer) is enlisted"
is what TFT says in its "concert chronology"...
Concerning Jack and Matt and this period I've got two (general) questions - probably discussed somewhere else, which I can't find...
1.
Does anyone exactly know which circumstances lead to the quit of Jack?
I read about 'health problems' (his back?)...
2.
Are there any infos about the rehearsals with which Matt became a working member of the band? Do you have interviews or comments about the rehearsal, when and how they did take place? As a fan but as a musician too I'm pretty curious...
Any help?
Thanks in advance.

I am pretty sure the thread you are referring to about Jack leaving because Ed was mad he didn't do enough writing was a joke.

I have also heard--again without published sources--that Jack was in need of some sort of reprieve due to psychological issues. Time with his family would be a concern at that point, too (assuming this was a related cause).

My friend was going to see Eddie last night. Since he was in Vegas, I gave him 5 Grand to gamble with. I told him I wanted it all to go on Black. Bastard! PhillyCrownOfThorns-11-2-12
This is what I heard also... except its called Bipolar now.
I think they made a good choice and I like how diverse their albums have been because of the drummer changes......
just another thing I love about Pearl Jam.......
I agree. Every period has its own character, but Matt's my favourite drummer, too. Jack's style for example brought a new mood into the improvs - "Porch" and "RVM" sound more "chilly" in their middle parts than before, where Dave used to bang and crash like a bastard - which I often like but not all the time -, but then I miss the dynamics that Dave brought into the jams ... I think Jack wasn't that 'able', he is a 'worker', like a locomotive - reliable but sometimes a little ... well, boring ... ... to me, Matt is like the perfect mixture of a very heavy drummer who does not sound like a show-off ... more, he brought rhythmical diversity into the band's songwriting and jamming... the quality of the "RMV"- and "Porch"-jams has grown so much over the last years ... IMO the band has artistically grown with Matt like they never did before ...
Amen, well said
