"Uma parte de mim pensa: ficava perfeitamente satisfeito se fizesse como os R.E.M. e desistisse enquanto estivéssemos no nosso auge.

valerá a pena dizer-lhe que já não corre esse risco?

Bem metida!

“We don’t have any plans for PJ25. And I think largely because PJ20 really does almost feel like it was last year. That’s how fast time goes at this point. Going out and playing shows, having people show up, having our fans be so great and so engaged in the shows—all the shows that we play feel like celebrations. I’m enjoying acknowledging that on stage more than I ever have and really taking that in and being humbled by it. Being really proud of what we’ve created as a band and the decisions that we’ve made. That’s the PJ25 answer.

“The political answer – we don’t have any plans. Beyond the shows this summer is trying to get into the studio and mess around a little bit. That’s always exciting for me. Everybody’s ready for the challenge and everybody’s ready to do something different. Maybe the last couple of records have been trying a different formula. Everybody’s sort of on board with that. It feels like there’s inspiration, like people are inspired right now. That’s exciting.”

"there´s Inspiration", uiii, imagino. Pitchfork review - 9.5

Não. Auge = $$$$? nesta vertente do business estão no auge.

era óbvio que não havia planos para um PJ25, nem fazia sentido nenhum haver, depois de celebrarem o PJ20.

Entrevista do Jeff ao nba.com:

http://www.nba.com/article/2017/05/30/n ... jeff-ament

Highlights below:

1:45 minute mark, on writing the names of NBA stars on his bass guitar:

"I wanted to be inspired 100 percent of the time I was playing music. And by putting the names of my most inspirational pro basketball players on the bass, at any given time if I felt like the mojo was slipping I would look down at the bass and see Nate Archibald's name and get fired up."

4:10, on the origins of the band name "Mookie Blaylock":

"Each day we would buy a pack of NBA cards [...] Fast forward a month later, and we're in our manager's office. We needed a band name in an hour."

13:30, on the growth of his NBA fandom while living in Seattle:

"I went to games to see the players on other teams that I liked. These were like $4 tickets, up in the middle of nowhere. But to go from growing up in Montana and rarely seeing NBA games, to watching the 76ers play in-person ... that just cemented I was in the right place. I needed to be in a place where I could see pro basketball."

17:45, on the legacy of Chris Cornell:

"Chris was the greatest songwriter to ever come out of Seattle. Chris had the song-writing chops we all hope to get to. I feel so lucky I got to witness his greatness."

33:15, on Pearl Jam approaching their 1000th show:

"It's pretty epic until you realize Ted Nugent has played like ... 6,000 shows. Then it doesn't feel that epic."

This is a very cool piece of early Pearl Jam history. A 1991 letter from Jeff to one of the best/ most well known grunge photographers, Lance Mercer (Ten Album photo shoot, Drop in the Park to name a couple). The letter talks about their first night on the tour opening up for the Chilli Peppers and having their very own tour bus. It also mentions a photo shoot in front of "Pearl's Jam" house. Love the content in this piece ....Truly one of a kind
