[kj] Pearl Jam and Guns N' Roses (and KJ???) supergroup in the works

[drunk wish]

Eh? http://www.nme.com/news/pearl-jam/68980 T.   Members of Pearl Jam, Guns  N'Roses and Screaming Trees have formed a supergroup.

 Pearl Jam's Mike  McCready has joined forces with former Guns  N' Roses member Duff McKagan - pictured above - and former Screaming Trees  drummer Barrett Martin for a brand new, as-yet-unnamed, band.

 Speaking  to Billboard, guitarist McCready said the band will be fronted  by a host of different singers, possibly including Killing Joke's Jaz Coleman.  

He  said: "Duff and Barrett and I got together. We wrote some new stuff and we took  some of those old Mad Season demos from that second  'Disinformation' record, so we are trying to find something to do with those.  We're talking to Jaz from Killing Joke and I've been trying to find some singers  to work on some of that stuff."

Mad Season was the band  that McCready and Martin played in with the late Alice  In Chains singer, Layne Staley, in the 1990s. The band only released one  album, 'Above', which will be re-released next month.

 The band's second  album, 'Disinformation', was never released. 

 The idea for the new band  came together when McCready and Martin were working on the Mad Season re-issue.  Martin adds: "I had a whole bunch of song ideas and Mike had a whole bunch of  song ideas... We decided that we would go into the studio and record them. Right  now they're being sent out to different singers. Mike and Duff are overseeing  that because they know everybody."
