What is this PJ you speak of? I thought it was impolite to speak of the dead.
Oh for goodness sake stop it. You’ve been posting the same message a hundred times now. If I were the band and read that crap I wouldn’t even bother to go back out
I’m sorry I can’t come up with anything new. Kinda like the band lately huh? Poor guys. Maybe when they do, I will. As long as no ones feelings are too hurt. We can all be better.
Avocado/Riot Act-esque politically charged album in the spring + a bigger than usual american tour with a "vote for change" theme.
I think it will be an active 2020 - US-wise.
Is pearl jam still a political band?
They will be in 2020. BOOK IT
Sweet!! Nothing more exciting then catching a rock show with people who have been voting for 20+ years to be reminded to vote.
That's a fair point, but don't underestimate the younger fans who are coming into their own and discovering PJ for themselves. I was really surprised and refreshed at the number of millennials that I saw last year at the Home and Away shows (actually rocking out and often recognizing deep cuts in addition to obvious hits)
I totally get why people feel like Pearl Jam is laying dormant in terms of new music being released as well as the hopefully forthcoming remaining 10C Holiday Singles/DEEP Magazine issues, but to call a band that played 7 (if I'm counting correctly) massive Stadium shows just last year, not to mention raising 11+ million dollars to fight homelessness in their hometown, all while making innumerable contributions to local charities and causes along the way, not "active" might be just a shade misleading. Like most of us, I miss the regular rotation of album-tour-album-tour cycling that used to come back around every 3 years or so. But these guys all have families now, not to mention lives of their own. They've certainly paid their dues and then some with the amount of music they've given us thus far, so if they want to slow-roll it now I have no problem. Definitely frustrated about the Holiday Singles, but if I'm being honest, they've haven't exactly been punctual with those even at the height of their activity. I remember seeing Ed at the Cobb Center in Atlanta in '09 in June and even then he joked about how he promised they were going to get around to releasing our (as of then) still unshipped 10C singles.

Is there a comparable of a band slowing down in their 50s without mentioning it's by design? 26 shows in 40 months is a dramatic slowdown, despite that great run of 26. Well stadium shows are not exactly great.
Compare their recent touring output to other top rock acts...u2 foos metallica etc...no comparison.

Is PJ still a band? I never thought I’d write this.
Yes. STOP FUCKING SAYING THIS SHIT PEOPLE!!!
God damn.
I love this band. But let’s call it the way it currently looks, which is that they are not a working band. Something is not right, we don’t know what but the silence is deafening. If it’s just an extended break, if it’s the end, they can say it I’m sure. It just seems like no one is interested or they are out of ideas where to go with it next and rather than sort it out they are just letting it sit idle until if and when they figure it out. I wish them well and if they do come back at some point I’ll be waiting eagerly to see what’s next.

So, not a bad idea to remind people.
Is there a comparable of a band slowing down in their 50s without mentioning it's by design? 26 shows in 40 months is a dramatic slowdown, despite that great run of 26. Well stadium shows are not exactly great.
