    I wasn’t trying to be a Debbie downer but you could see the writing on the wall since last May. They were taking 2026 off touring

    Exactly.

    As I've said, wake me up in September or so.

    Hopefully Euro and US tours in 2027 (and not 2028!). Wonder if they’ll have a new album.

    Me and my tendency to overthink stuff like this is wondering; Why mention anything about wanting to tour this year, unless it has been a topic of conversation amongst the group? 

    Mike was expressing his opinion, that he would like to play some shows. But that does not mean it has been discussed. I am also guessing that this means no Pearl Jam at Ohana as well. I do not mind that are no shows planned for 2026. I also need a break!

    What if Ohana books Ed (with or without the Earthlings), PEST & Mike's Farewell to Seasons?

    Luckily there are 180 episodes of Seinfeld.  

    … What writer? It's a sitcom.
    I’ll be taking in the La Cocina until the next tour. 
    Oh, oh. Uh, you know. It's the damndest thing. I, uh, I moved recently and my files, pfff, disappeared. Now, I-I don't know if they fell off the truck or if there was some sort of foul play but let me tell you something. I'm not through with that moving company

    essentially mine too, until it remembered I'm planning to go to Ohana.

    Mike would probably tour every year if given the opportunity.  I really think it was Matt and also Jeff who are/were the more reluctant ones.  

    I think most reasonable people knew this was likely. Save your money for 2027 when there will be a new drummer, new music (hopefully), and big, long tour.

    It's kinda funny how there was some interpretation of woodshedding as "jamming together, maybe with the new drummer" and Mike is like "that means exchanging emails"

    I would save my money only Ohana and possibly a lab puppy may take it before next tour 🙂

    There’s always a chance we could get a EV run in the Summer/Fall.

    PEST is not going to play Ohana. That music isn’t mainstream and it’s very MT specific. Definetly not beachy.  If JA were to solo at Ohana, it probably be a RNDM set with a new singer.

    If nothing is planned, then nothing is happening. You don’t just book a tour over night. 
    I want to go see Pearl Jam, but don’t have anything planned.

    My wife asked me to think about cleaning out the garage this weekend.  I told her I’m woodshedding the idea.

    Hopefully that doesn't cause the band to break up!

    I had a couple of sites ask to renegotiate their contacts a couple of years early.   They will be told I will be woodshedding for the balance of 2026.
