Pavement's Bob Nastonovich Explains that Malkmus Calls the Shots, There's No New Material, and the Reunion Will Be Short-Lived...
The Daily Swarm — ... The Quietus: So I’m guessing that Pavement never had a “when hell freezes over” kind of falling out to get over like The Eagles but why are you getting back together now? BN: No, we quit in 1999 because we were exhausted, didn’t know what direction to go in and Stephen wanted to do something else. We might as well reunite.

No new Pavement material, says Nastanovich
Drowned In Sound // Feed — ... years, there's always going to be questions about new material, be it in the form of a song, album, EP, or even just new songs played live.

In an interview with The Quietus , Bob Nastanovich said there would be no freshly-penned musical pieces from the ...

Pavement Start Reunion Tour in New Zelaland and Australia, No New Songs Expected
Tiny Mix Tapes — ... ), Pavement have now revealed the actual start of their tour to be in New Zealand and Australia. How not exciting for everyone in the U.S.! Though, I suppose they have to road-test their reunion show somewhere and since New Zealand and Australia are not important culturally or politically, I’d call it a wise move. (I’m just kidding. I was born in New Zealand and moved to Australia when I was 2.) In even more not exciting news, non-Stephen Malkmus member Bob Nastanovich told The Quietus that the band is not expected to perform any new material. Darn. But do expect them ...
