Sorry to 1) start a new thread perhaps unnecessarily and 2) be the bearer of bad news, but here is the latest update from Doug Pinnick himself regarding the impending project with Jeff Ament...

Doesn't look like there's been any progress since the last time we were all discussing this.

From www.blabbermouth.net:

SUPERSHINE is hanging waiting for me to get all the KING'S X done. And Jeff Ament [PEARL JAM] and I still have to finish our project but our schedules just haven't been able to connect yet. Maybe after the KING'S X CD...We have 8 songs done..
