    MFC is a gentleman and a scholar.
    I can attest to the former. 
    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer

    Anyway, I still love MC and wish him the absolute best, but it's unfortunate to hear that he really didn't seem stoked to be in the band anymore.
    This.
    I tend to think he was just over it and wants to do his own thing.  The guy has been in the band for 27 years playing a lot of the same songs night in and night out.  I do think they scaled back the set lists over the last few tours because of him, but I think they did it for all members.  Jeff has admitted to not being a huge fan out touring, the band has cancelled and postponed shows due to Ed's voice being out, sickness, Covid, etc.  The guys are are all 60+ at this point.  I also wonder if Matt thinks he's "just the drummer".  He hasn't had a ton of creative input on most albums (at least not acknowledged)...he's been replaced due to illness a couple of times...  again, maybe he want's to do more creative stuff.  I dunno.
    I love Matt and am sad to see him go, but I'm happy for him.

    Wow. That was rough. I love Matt,  l miss him and know he’ll do great with all his future work. I love Ed and his chattiness at shows, it’s entertaining, inspiring, and makes me feel close to the band in a FAN way-no delusions. I love PJ, I’ll go see them no matter how long or short their shows are. Also, if they did short shows, the cost would go down, their tickets already lower than many other high ranking bands. All the love to our PJ community ❤️

    In lieu of Soundgarden's upcoming induction in the Rock N' Roll HoF and months just accepting MFC will no longer be the drummer of PJ, my wife and I came up with a t-shirt idea for Matt F'ing Cameron. Would love to know what y'all think.

    ^ So apt! An end of era for PJ, and an end of an era for pop culture... I'd like to see a yellow variant as well:
    Athens 2006 / Milton Keynes 2014 / London 1&2 2022 / Seattle 1&2 2024 / Dublin 2024 / Manchester 2024 / New Orleans 2025
