In the wake of Matt Cameron announcing his departure from Pearl Jam after nearly forty years of playing drums for the rock group, fans speculated about who might replace him. Could it be Josh Freese, the newly dismissed Foo Fighters drummer? Or could it be Zak Starkey, who got the ax from The Who? Some have even brought up Dave Abbruzzese.

After jamming with 'the mighty Pearl Jam' for 27 years, Matt Cameron announced his exit from the band on Monday: 'I thank you all from the bottom of my heart.'
