Matt actually writes songs. |

Pretty awful songs. |

That's not really true. His Riot Act contributions are great. |

This conversation is riveting but I must go to sleep. It's too bad the Europe contingent isn't awake yet and the Australia folks are banned. They'd keep you company during the night shift. |

I'll take In the Moonlight, Get Right, Unemployable and Johnny Guitar over Unthought Known, Just Breathe or I Am Mine. |

I think I Am Mine was the last really good one. I like the 'full moon is looking for friends at high tide' lyric, but that's about it. There's a whole swathe of Ed tunes that I wish he'd saved for a solo album over the last few records. This would've made for a reasonable little collection: I Am Mine Thumbing My Way Gone Speed of Sound Just Breathe The End Unthought Known + the newer uke songs like Sleeping By Myself and Light Today. It's not that I think they're terrible songs, I just don't feel like the band really gel with the material. |

I think I Am Mind and The End work perfectly fine as is. |

Those songs work better in Ed's solo sets than they do at Pearl Jam shows. The band never quite seem to know what to do with them - they don't really allow any space for Stone or Mike to do anything interesting apart from chunk along the same chords as Eddie. |
