1. Listened to the Lima gig a few times - it's extremely good.

    I am moving on to Shoreline 2003. Those June boots are going to keep me busy.
  2. STONE GOSSARD SAYS THERE IS “NO URGENCY OR RUSH” TO FINISH NEW PEARL JAM ALBUM

    “I don’t know, it’s hard to say. We’ve recorded some songs, and we’re going to record and write some more. You never know, it might be that we’re a song away or two, or it might be that we’re going to record six or seven more songs. I think the main thing is that were not in a rush and there’s no urgency to it. The most important thing is that we put something out that continues to expand our boundaries rather than trying to follow what we’ve done in the past. I think it’s a good time to hopefully continue to experiment, and continue to shake it up. So that people can go “Wow, that’s kind of weird for Pearl Jam,” and then 10 years later they can go, “Oh, that’s my favorite period.” Which is always kind of what happens. You try something and at first everybody doesn’t necessarily understand it, and then you look back and you go, thank God we tried something new, because it really opened a door up for us to be able to do this and this and this beyond that.”


    excerpt from Stone interview on RollingStone
  3. ^At least I have about 200 bootlegs to listen to in the mean time.
  4. and they're about to increase
  5. YEAH!!

    Or do I mean, "YAY?"
  6. listening to the soundboard remaster of London 92
    unbelievable amazing sound!!!
  7. Is that one from the remasters series?
  8. yes that is

  9. Hmm, you just gave me the idea of listening to that now... It's a pretty short gig so I should have the time.

    It does sound great for sure!!!
  10. Stone Gossard said in todays NME,that the band are "not in a rush",but that they may be "only a song or 2 away" from finishing the new album. He also said there is "no urgency" to finish.

    Stone also said "I think its a good time to continue to experiment and continue to shake things up."


    Hmm.......The band have so much going on..solo projects and all....I wish they would just spend 6 months in the studio and release an album..but thats just me....
  11. Listened to the 2003 Shoreline Amphitheatre show recently and have to say it's VERY good. Was impressed with the playing of EIGHT songs from Riot Act yet they still managed to have quite a bit of variety throughout the set. The last encore might be relatively weak - two covers and Bu$hleaguer. Good songs but no RITFW, BBO, Indiff, or YLB. I guess that's what makes PJ so special - the varitey. Also, I'm not too sure if I like the "Daughter" performances as much from 2003 - not enough (any?) "It's Okay" tags - which really allows the song to end on a high note, as opposed to dwindling out.
  12. A little birdy told us to be sure your memberships are up to date by this Sunday afternoon.

    Have a nice weekend.
