      John, sir. I am so happy to read your comment and realize the following.
      I am 45 and only realized recently how much Dave influenced my drumming as I was growing up. It sounds a bit weird but that is because I have recently been diagnosed with a disorder that explains everything.
      In a sense listening to Dave again is bringing out the old me again and not the person I have become who is wearing a mask the whole time to try and fit into what is normal to everyone else.
      I am so glad to hear that we have the same hero since more or less the same time. Just shows you, music speaks to the soul and no barrier can stop it... ✌❤😊

It's funny that your boy Cameron hasn't produced anything of note with Pearl Jam after two decades. They haven't had a platinum record since Yield, and Gigaton didn't even hit gold. Abbruzzese was with them during their peak period, played on their #2 and #3 most iconic and best-selling albums, and helped establish them as a live act on the Ten tour.
