    This band just won’t take a breather and I love it. Awesome 
    I am finally getting around to reading Dave's book. It is great. Reading it, I can definitely see how much he loves being on stage and performing. I mean he didn't even take a break when he fell of the stage and broke his leg. He had the doctor come on stage with him and hold his ankle in place while he finished the set.

    Some really funny stories, also enjoyed reading it. 
    Yes. There are. I went to his Storytellers show when he was in NYC. He told a lot of stories from the book. It was a great show.

    imo it's better on audiobook. dave is the reader.

    What's the thoughts on the cryptic posts they've been putting up?

    New album? Announcing Lil Hawkins as their drummer? Full tour dates?

    Wasting Light is a masterpiece. They went downhill with Sonic Highways, Concrete and Gold, and Medicine At Midnight.
    I understand sonic and medicine, but I really don't understand why Concrete and Gold didn’t stand out to more to people. 
    I think it's their most underrated album

    Digging it. Bittersweet. Hard not to envision Hawkins absolutely crushing this song live.

    When they announce more shows to support the new album, I guess we are going to see them. My wife, who has never expressed any interest in going to see them live, recently told me she wanted to see them when they tour around us again.

    I.... love.... it.... can't wait for the rest!
    And I agree that audiobook with Dave reading Storyteller is much better

    This was a really nice way to wake up.  Super stoked! Ordered the white vinyl!

    btw... they must of recorded this a while back for it be pressed on vinyl for June 2.  Also 24.99 for vinyl in 2023 is pretty amazing.

    Just listened to the single. Sounds great. 

    We have any idea who's on drums?

    There was a rumor about Matt Cameron having been seen at or around their studio, but I'm skeptical... I feel like Dave will be doing the drums in the studio right now... unless they've figured out a permanent replacement for Hawkins.

    my guess is Dave. 

    I find the new song kind of "meh". But we'll see after multiple listens. 
    Hugh Freaking Dillon is currently out of the office, returning sometime in the fall
