    Just further up this page. Most likely a tidbit from the review of his documentary, paving the way that’s at tribeca this weekend.

    If it’s Chad Smith, can he just stop wearing his hat like a twelve year old?
    You mean backwards? It suits him, just as how Ed wears his brimmed hats and how JA wears his skater hats.

    "I think we need to get out and play like 10, 15 shows with whoever our drummer is and just kind of get that part going before we make a record.' Ament said.

    The key question for me is when are they planning the 10, 15 shows?  Does it make sense to get together, rehearse the new guy and mobilise the PJ crew just for a one-off show?  Or use that same prep for a short post-Ohana run in the buildup to the midterms?

    Like I’ve been saying all along. Ament confirmed they know the Ohana drummer, that person is not 100% the new permanent drummer yet. He called it a trial and said Need to get out and play 10,15 shows with whoever our drummer is. Spin jumped to a big conclusion and everyone ran with their headline. 
    Just very hard to imagine a band like Pearl Jam needing a "trial" run for anything at this point in their career.. 

    What if it doesn't feel right at show 1? Do you just cancel the other 14 shows now because they chose to cancel their trial experience? 

    Come on now... 

    He's clearly joking while offering hope the future. 
    I don't think he really means that the new guy is in a trial period having a few shows to prove his skills or anything like that.  What is more at stake is the chemistry between the band and the new drummer, that only comes from playing together and takes time.  Ideally it can lead to a new creative momentum for the band or frankly it sometimes doesn't feel quite right and doesn't work out.

    Who are you to judge? If the guy wants to wear the hat let him. He DGAF about your opinion, but I’m sure he’s thankful that we all on here helped him support his hat wearing g era by going to shows and buying merch.
