The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
I mean, I'm no drummer so I'm sure my opinion will be null and void in here, but the dude has been a drummer twice as long as any of the other guys. He is the main PJ drummer out of all of them. This is Pearl Jam. And I think he adds a certain element to the band that the other guys didn't. MATT IS A GOOD GUY, TEAM.
I like a lot of what Matt does. What throws me into a rage is the fact that whenever I make a valid, technical complaint about something he does that I don't like, backed up with an argument, people throw "Yeah but he's a beast, a god!" at me. And I'm like OK, but either address my complaint or... suck a bag of dicks. Matt can stay. Matt will stay. At least he isn't Ringo Starr.

Answers like that are one of the many reasons I don't like The Beatles.

I think the more important issue is the one chinofstone brought up in the PJ Bitching thread. Harmless, could you please address that?
Can I save it for later?

didn't jack quit the band because he couldn't be bothered to go out and play his songs?

If there's one thing I see when I look at Matt, all sitting there on his throne and hitting things with sticks, is someone who looks not-bored. Either that or he's always smiling and looks like he's having fun, because he's retarded.
I can't figure out which of those is true. Fun drum, or fun durr durr durr.

There's no evidence at all that he's bored with PJ. Never understood that complaint.

I don't think Jack could keep pace. Same for Dave A - I remember seeing pictures of him icing his wrists.
Drumming sucks. It often hurts. But for some reason that doesn't seem to apply to Matt C.

Because with soundgarden he does jesus christ pose and with pj he does thin air. Oh, and current era pj is bad

I'm not in love with Jack either. My "Matt is bored" comment was hyperbolic. I'm pissed off and tired for other reasons. But the quality of his drumming has deteriorated since Riot Act and LO2L, and Binaural, and even since S/T. His live drumming is a much more simplified version of what he once did, and littered with mistakes. I speculate that he isn't as interested in Pearl Jam's current music as he was in the music they played before Backspacer, and even before S/T. I assume the right to say that because I feel I can hear that in the music, and I feel I can see that when he plays live (and what he plays live / what he doesn't play live). I don't say anything just for the sake of it. I would not say any of this if I didn't really think it. Some of the drumming on Lightning Bolt and Backspacer is shockingly non-technical compared to what he used to do.

If there's someone in PJ who's bored or dissatisfied with it that someone is a complete moron. They don't need the money and each and all of them can do whatever they want artistically partly because they have the money to afford it.

I'm not comparing completely disparate genres.

And they are doing whatever they want artistically... in other bands.
