“Um, maybe halfway there. We’re taking our time. I was talking to Jeff [Ament] today, we were texting, he’s got his group up there. He’s heading to the West Coast, I’m heading east. And we’re out here like, you know, like Johnny Appleseed. He’s covering part of the country. I’m doing the other. And at some point we’ll join forces again for sure, but the band is as healthy as ever and I’m sure it’s good to get a little break from each other, but it’s nice to – we’ll be ready to go when we’re ready to go.”
“It just comes out. It sounds like it sounds like. We really work together as a unit these days. It’s really the compilation of all the parts. It’s not like one guy trying to tell everybody, “These are my songs. This is what it should sound like.” We’ve figured out after all these years that if everybody just puts their stamp on it, then it sounds how we want it to. Then it sounds new, ’cause everyone is growing, you know. Everyone is growing after all these years.”
Blah Blah Blah.He said the same thing in '10,'11,and '12.PJ need to do a real,proper tour for once.Not 2 weeks,12 gigs,and thats it for the year.
DMB just completed a short winter tour.15 dates in 3 weeks.I went to 4 of the shows.The last night in Philadelphia Dave said "These short tours are such a tease.For us,as a band,and the fans.See you guys soon." Amen.
New album ,and a full tour from Pearl Jam in 2013 please.Very frustrating for me,as I know this wont happen anymore.
