    Just my two cents but objectifying women seems like the exact opposite kind of thing this band represents.

    Your hearts are in the right place but I think there are better and more noble ways to support this charity (or any charity).

    Yep.

    I'd love a "pearl jam with cats" calendar
    Please stop objectifying cats

    cats AND dogs...or just dogs lol ;)
    its a good idea...pets superimposed onto the stage, pets with expressions/actions that match song lyrics w/ the lyrics "behind" them, pets in PJ pj's, pets with expressions that match funny pictures of the guys...ive seen memes with these themes so its totally doable...how about a PJ meme calendar? Or as suggested, fan art. I have seen some beauties out there!

    Scooter is an awesome name! Our cairn terrier is named Gertie Lee. She'd be a good candidate for Ms.December.

    Yeah a pets Calendar would be really cool! And Gertie Lee is a great name as well!!
    We used to list our pets with our last name.. Til Pfifer Tomsen ( the GSD) got a Credit card offer in the mail! Lmao. We quit doing that after that! But still it was funny!

    Would the modern version of the band really have an issue with this? I mean, Ed married a model, after all.

    I don't know - I'm just going by their music/lyrics, stances on various issues, what I've read and seen over the years.

    The rest of it, including to whom they're married and why, is none of my business and respectfully suggest it have no part of this discussion.

    Well if people are going to suggest that the band would have an issue with it, I think context is important. I'm not trying to violate the "don't discuss the personal lives of the band", I am just saying that a calendar that isn't nude people doing it to feed their kids, I don't know if it falls into the same category, that's all. People do calendars like this all the time in good taste and for good causes. Men and women.

    Has anyone from Wishlist Foundation seen this thread yet?! Please produce more Team McCready shirts.

    I'm sure that the 12 women who would volunteer for this project are in fact beautiful and interesting, but I wouldn't be interested in buying your calendar.

    Having said all that, I'm pretty sure this whole thread was started as a wind up... but certainly interesting to read what folks have to say about the topics at hand (Ewww... pun X_X )

    Another idea could be a calendar with photos of the Fan portrait project. I mean, they were taken at the WL preparties anyways. But maybe Tanya has already planned her own calendars?
    Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue! http://community.pearljam.com/discussion/148993/please-pearl-jam-consider-a-vinyl-benaroya-hall-re-issue

    If it is done in good taste I don't see what appeal it would have. We all see fully dressed, tastefully beautiful people every day, why do we need a calendar?
    If it is done in bad taste it would be appealing aesthetically but unappealing morally. Seems like a no win!
    Cats and dogs! Lol I know some rabid PJ fan has a picture of a cat sleeping on a shelf, hanging loose and just about to fall off. Slap some lyrics next to it "Comatose with no fear of falling" Boom there's your January!

    Where's the "oh no you didn't!" thingie?

    Liking some of the ideas here. Cheers to collective creativity.

    (by the way, as I'm slightly buzzed this afternoon, morteton's avatar completely threw me off and I thought, the fuck? Don't remember posting that :D)

    I guess we have a different view on what constitutes good taste. Lol

    Hahaha well I am not claiming a cat calendar is particularly tasteful, but more so than a pin-up calendar!
