It doesn't get much better than this folks.

Do you think Rodman and that little piss pot from North Korea rocked out to some Pearl Jam when he was there?

I was watching Apprentice and Rodman was complaining about having to rap. He said, "I'm a rock guy."

great, great song

[Chloe]

<3 Love this one. It's the last on my wishlist to get at a show, maybe 2013?

This song has it all. Its really showcased the best the band had to offer. The drumming is great, ed's vocals are subdued, the guitar work is interesting and it has a pretty meaty, weird bridge.

I remember when Best Buy opened in our town during high school, and on my first visit I found the "Hail Hail/BRY" and "Off He Goes/Dead Man" singles. I must have looked like a giddy schoolboy.

[William Bloke]

Yep, big fan of this one. It made my top ten whenever it was that I last did a PJ top ten. I love the groove it has and of course its agency.

There have been two shows when I thought for sure I'd get this song - Lolla 2007 & PJ20 night 1. Rodman was at both shows, seemed perfect to me.
Also, can we get the names of all the people behind the stage, they need to be punched in the head...

A really cool little oddity in their catalogue. I think the chorus is a lot of fun. It should be played live more often.

The bridge is probably the worst part.

i got this at one of my MSG shows and it sounded great.

It's pearl jam at their best.

I thought I didn't like this song, but I really enjoyed that performance.

Yeah, it seems great live and Ed didn't struggle with the lyrics, it's a shame they never play it.

[EJ]

I love everything about this song. I also think its wise to rarely play it live.

[Hatfield]

It's pearl jam at their best.

I wish more of their songs had that repetitive, layered bridge that builds until it bursts.

Lucky to hear it in London, 2005.

Good point, but everyone should get to hear it live at least once.

[super nintendo chalmers]

Interesting note, the Hail Hail single was CD only.

[Jorge]

Yeah that is interesting.
