    27 new posts today and it’s a Gigaton debate? Where the 2026 rumors at?
    We dont have any lol - go ahead and kick one off I'll definitely be right there with you.

    For me, Seven O'Clock is better live than on the album.  And there's this part in Never Desination in the bridge where Matt Cameron and the guys bring on a serious Police vibe.  MC sounding like Stewart Copeland in there.  Love that section. 
    Never Dest and Thank God For the Bomb by Ozzy sound similar

    I traveled to Orlando to play golf before Xmas.  Got paired up with a nice couple for a morning 18.  They did not mention any 2026 PJ tour rumors.

    Thread integrity dude.  Let’s keep it to the rumors.

    I was here a few weeks ago for work across the street from Seaworld so went there to ride some coasters for the first time in about 20 years.  Just here on my own so probably just sticking with golf, good food and sleep.

    Shawshank Redemption quotes, Gigaton debates, and theme park itineraries. I’ll take all of that on a Tour Rumor Thread over the Covid talk on the Tour Threads from back in 2020-2021.

    Jeff saying on Pearl Jam radio that they will be rehearsing after the new year sounds about as solid a rumor there can be. Maybe even closer to a confirmation than a rumor IMO.

    I would prefer silence to all of that.

    Rehearsing by itself is not that solid. They could rehearse to keep things fresh while they look for a guy. They could be auditioning people. 
    And Jeff said they are in no hurry and enjoying the break.

    I still bet it’ll be Krusen. Contracts and compensation takes time to negotiate. 
    I Would love that

    Good to hear Dave Krusen "would love to" rejoin the band.

    It's the best story. Second chances. Legacy. Redemption.

    haha it's like asking actors who had amazing TV/Movie gigs.  Would you like your awesome job back? Absolutely I would :)

    Yes totally ackowledge that.  But at this stage of their lives, PJ is a big committment with the touring. He could've easily said, "I really loved my time with them, but it's hard to think about touring right now." Or something to that affect.  But he made it very clear and simple how he feels.  

    I find it a bit serendipitous there's an opening with the drummer who was on board at the very beginning with them.  Dave A made his (jumbled) attempt at opening that door, and the band has never been on the best terms with him since he left. And Jack's just not touring.  

    The more I think about it, the more it makes sense....

    Also me:

    That conspiracy meme except its me and a nephron

    I'm more and more of this opinion as well and honestly really starting to hope for it. If things had been different back when they first started, he may have never ended up having to leave in the first place so getting a second chance now seems so fitting. How often do we get a second chance in life to do something we thought we'd missed out on?

    Wasn’t the breakup of Green River somewhat inspired by them seeing Jane’s play? So he’d fit in with the lore like Jack and Matt did
