Matt Cameron has been behind the drum kit for Pearl Jam since joining the band in 1998, but for the first time since then he was forced to miss a show after testing positive for COVID-19.

As Blabbermouth reports, for the band’s show in Oakland, Calif. on Thursday, May 12, Seattle drummer Richard Stuverud and Pearl Jam guitarist Josh Klinghoffe filled in on drums for most of the show. “Matt Cameron is a true artist and he’s a force of nature,” frontman Eddie Vedder told the crowd before introducing the replacement drummers. “However, even his superhero status could not prevent him from testing positive.

This damn COVID thing yesterday. We’ve been scrambling for 24 hours because after 25 months of… We were supposed to be here 25 months ago.

We’ve been waiting and we’ve been waiting. Postponing wasn’t an option and for us neither was canceling. We didn’t want to pull the plug and we couldn’t pull the plug.

Arizona teen saved from overdose by online gaming friend 5,000 miles away
QUEEN CREEK, Ariz. - A Queen Creek teenager is alive today - thanks to the work of first responders and gamers from half a world away.The 15-year-old boy had reportedly been gaming online with some friends from Germany when he started talking about committing suicide.A friend called for help, and Queen Creek police would eventually visit the teenager's home to check on him.Body camera video showed his parents, unaware of the situation, letting the officer into the home. They found the teen lying unconscious in his room but still breathing.Police discovered that the teen had overdosed on an unknown number of pills, and Officer Sean Lopez reacted by spraying Narcan into the boy's nose.The teenager was able to slowly regain consciousness, and he was taken away by ambulance for further treatment.Queen Creek Police Chief Randy Brice applauded the Officer Lopez's quick response that saved the teen's life."The fact the officer got there that fast even though parents weren't aware and provide that intervention - even the fire department showed up very quickly - but again seconds count, and we do believe it was a great save on his part," Brice said.All Queen Creek officers, detectives and field workers carry at least two containers of Narcan for these situations.If you or a loved one is feeling distressed, call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline.

How much will home prices drop as interest rates rise? Depends where you live
interest rates rise and the post-pandemic market starts to materialize.But just how low prices will go depends on what part of the country you’re living in, with a recent report from Desjardins Economic Studies suggesting cities that saw the most growth in the pandemic now have the furthest to fall.Major Canadian housing markets including Toronto and Vancouver saw less sales activity and even price drops in April and May as the Bank of Canada began raising interest rates over the past three months. Bidding war no more — How to make an offer in Canada’s cooling housing market This “chillier wind,” as RBC economist Robert Hogue dubbed it in a report last week, is expected to continue driving home values down from their pandemic-era highs as demand softens and housing inventories are given time to rebuild.Randall Bartlett, senior director of Canadian Economics at Desjardins, tells Global News that rising interest rates are the “pin that’s bursting the housing bubble that developed during the pandemic.”The Desjardins report released this past week predicts that from the peak of national home prices in February of this year to the end of 2023, the average sale price in Canada will drop 15 per cent.Virtually all markets are expected to see some drops, but some could see value erode more rapidly.In the Maritimes, for example, prices in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick are expected to fall 20 per cent over that timeframe.
