    If the Gallagher brothers can make amends and do their thing again, why can’t PJ and Dave A do the same?

    Sounds like a possible full album’s worth of Soundgarden material on the way. If they have decided on a vocalist to tour with guessing Matt is going full Soundgarden.

    I assume retire from touring. Cant see him doing the Foos as some others have suggested, that wouldnt make sense.
    This is my thought as well. He spoke a lot about how hard touring is for drummers after Taylor died. I’d imagine he just wants to relax and work on smaller projects.

    Very curious to see how they go about finding the next person. They don’t strike me as a band that would pull in a hired gun only for touring, rather would prefer a full on new member

    Didn’t the band always say they are done if Matt left? I hope that’s not the case.

    Wow. Stunned by this. Pittsburgh 2025 was the end of an era. 

    Thank you, Matt. For everything. You will be missed.

    Pretty stunned, I’m 25 years old so he’s the only drummer of PJ I’ve ever known. Going to be very strange for a bit with someone else back there

    That's a bummer.  I wasn't a huge fan of his drumming style for PJ, but respected the dude as a person and answering the call when the band needed him.

    Only drummer I’ve seen live.  Wish Matt the best and nothing lasts forever.  Fortunate to see Matt’s final shows in Pittsburgh.
