II-22: Pilate vs. Elderly Woman

[PHATJ]

"Elderly Woman" is a nice song, but after all these years it smells a bit like sweaty dorm rooms, patchouli, and the sorrow of long-forgotten open mic nights.

I cannot wrap my head around this at all. I've said it before, when we disagree... it's all the way.

Kevin Davis is spot on.

I'm with KD on this one too.

BASE IT ON ITS COMPOSITION FUCK

It's a boring composition.

[epilogue]

I adore Pilate but Elderly Woman is one of the best things this any band has ever done.

This should be a slaughter. But it won't be because RM.

[epilogue]

I get it, Pete. I was never under any illusions otherwise.

[Birds in Hell]

I like Pilate just fine but am on your side here, Joe.

[Norah]

It might be the single worst show opener.

It might be the single worst show opener.

It opened what turned out to be the best Pearl Jam show I ever saw so I'm willing to cut it a little slack.

You are the wind beneath my wings, Spenno.

[BurtReynolds]

i like it as an opener.

[epilogue]

I don't recall if I've ever heard it as an opener. But in my head it seems like it should work. I know, I'd be pretty pumped to hear it open.

[Birds in Hell]

I think the effect of an opener very depends on what comes after it too, there's little point opening with Release and then rolling into Arms Aloft.

Small Town > Go > Do the Evolution

That was a good, solid opening run.
