    Thus book is like Chinese Democracy.


    At least Tool fans are going to be happy.

    Storyboard designs from the video production. Sadly this image is not one of the past anymore. Neo Nazism and murderous fascism and race hate is on the rise around world. Another 20 killed yesterday in El Paso by a white power extremist. This has to end. We need to evolve beyond these hateful philosophies and the politicians who daily spew racism and hate to gin up their followers and cling to power.

    So is he basically releasing the book page by page on his facebook or what's the deal?  Won't need to buy the damn thing by the time if it ever comes out.
    He said he's waiting for the band or maybe just Eddie to approve something
    I get that, but why would I buy the book if I can just look at his timeline for free is what I'm saying?
    Why buy vinyl when you can listen on Spotify for free?

    Well, why go to a fine restaurant, when you can just stick something in the microwave? Why go to the park and fly a kite, when you can just pop a pill?

    The Suicidal Businessman model sheet. Judging from the rumbling's in Wall Street and around the world, he may have some company coming up in the near future...

    Hi folks, happy Sunday to you all. Here's a glimpse of the new proposed cover to our book, 'Pearl Jam: the Art of Do the Evolution". The final proofs went out to Eddie and the band a few months ago. Once we receive their comments or hopefully, sign-offs, we can finally go to press. 'Finger's crossed.

    GREAT NEWS! 

    We just received a note from the Band's attorney that they have approved ALL the images, layouts and text for "Pearl Jam: the Art of Do the Evolution" so we are now ready to ROLL!! 

    It's been a long haul for me so fully understand and respect all of your patience in waiting for this long delayed book to finally hit the market. 

    I'll be speaking with the publisher today or tomorrow to lock down the expected publishing dates and when I have them confirmed, you will be the first to know. 

    Now it's time for a stiff, celebratory drink. Cheers!

    PS Here's the band's choice for the cover. They picked this one out of the 5 different comps we presented to them. It's not my personal favorite, but I do dig it a lot and it's entirely appropriate for the book and video.

    And what I also like is that the cover layout from Robbie Robbins uses images designed by three of the key artists who contributed to the video. The Bleeding Whale was designed and boarded by Jim Mitchell, the "Shotgunned Yield Sign" was designed and boarded by Young Ki Yoon, and Death Girl was designed by Brad Coombs. It's nice to see all of their work on the cover.

    Me too.  And it’s clear why the band picked it. It’s got the album logo on it.

    And it’s letterboxed like everything else Yield related.
