Pearl Jam have announced that all of their former drummers have been invited to be part of the band’s appearance at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony next month. The band made the announcement in a handwritten letter they shared on social media.
The letter said, “While awards and accolades are understandably subjective and a countless number of our peers have yet to be honored, we do feel fortunate the be recognized and provided the opportunity to reunite with everyone who has been part of the group.
“Specifically the drummers who all left their distinctive mark on our band in the pre-Matt Cameron years. Dave Krusen, Matt Chamberlain, Dave Abbruzzese and Jack Irons are each individually great players who gave their all to the early recordings and live gigs.”
Abbruzzese, Chamberlain and Irons were not originally invited by the Rock Hall.
