i've seen this talked about randomly, so i waned to make a thread for it. what song opens pearl jam's first shows after the pandemic? my vote is small town, but others ive seen mentioned:

alive
corduroy
release

anything i'm missing? 'gonna see my friends' wont be first, but it will be like 3-4.

First song back will be Corduroy. Just imagine that glorious call & response during the bridge. Ed can’t resist that.

I'm on the record in another thread as guessing this. I wasn't thinking about the call-and-response so much as (1) the first show back is a festival show, and they tend to open those with crowd-pleasers and (2) "the waiting drove me mad" as an opening line.

Exactly.

Exactly.

Thought the same, though since the first show will be at Sea Hear Now on the beach, I could also see Oceans, then Corduroy.

Long Road -> Corduroy -> SBWM -> Why Go Home

(The flow would work better as SBWM -> Corduroy)

I just hope its not Elderly Woman.. great song, but its sucks as an opener (got it at Lolla 2013)

Do The Evolution-->Corduroy-->Why go. These guys have been home for a while, I think they come with the fire first.
