    I don't know that it's necessarily trolling....some people are just really ingrained in how they view the things they love that they don't want them to change or evolve. kinda like still not being over Dave A not being in the band. 
    To be fair, just ~10% of this thread is negative towards Josh. The other 90% is from people who like this move.

    Check out 'Omission'. John and Josh making some magic here. 
    Yeah that songs great. Loved John and Josh together, it’s too bad they no longer speak with each other.  Ataxia is another one of their projects worth checking out if you haven’t already. Josh is on drums and they play with Joe Lally, bassist of Fugazi whose also incredible.

    From GuitarWorld:

    how long do you plan to tour with Pearl Jam?

    “I have a slightly unrealistic/pompous bet with myself that I would be able to put out a record every year. So, I’m in year three of Pluralone’s existence, and I’m dangerously close to losing that bet and not having a record out this year. But the clock isn’t up yet. I’m trying to make as much music as possible under my own little solo moniker. And then whatever Pearl Jam has on the calendar. 

    “For the foreseeable future I’ll be with them, since it’s still in support of the Gigaton album. I’m by no means a member of Pearl Jam, but I’m definitely committed to touring this next cycle. They’ve been so welcoming, and they’re totally conscious and supportive of my music and my solo work.

    Same here. At first I was cool to the news but after seeing the Encore shows I am really interesting in seeing him in the mix in an arena setting with it being open in the back of the stage and not in the shadows.

    Thanks for sharing. It's a little disappointing to know that I may have almost gotten to see Jack play a song with PJ at Ohana. I kind of thought that was a possibility going into it. Not that the article says that was going to happen, but it sounds like it was as possible as ever. Cool article though. 
    words seem so out of place.

    This thread is still going? LOL

    He was awesome with them last weekend and it just adds another layer. I truly do not understand why people have such an issue with him being on stage. If I were a betting man, I'd say get used to it....I imagine he'll join them for the rescheduled dates as well.
    I thought that it was made clear that his most important role was playing dominoes with Mike?

    It might be blasphemy, but the guys elevated without MC to a level I haven’t seen in years. Not MC fault, or that Josh is better, but it lit a fire that I think the entire audience felt.

    I was surprised when they played way past 11pm. That’s usually a hard curfew during the week. But tonight’s show didn’t end until almost 11:30pm.

    Well one thing is for certain, whoever made the final call to get Josh on board playing live with the band, it was a masterstroke on so many levels.

    7:30 show usually means 11:30 curfew
    7 = 11
