There's a request up now that doesn't include a song, it's just a poster asking if Eddie will wear a hat she handed to a roadie three years ago.

Here are the song request threads on the Pit, just from the first two pages, in case you don't want to wander over there:

-Someone has humbly asked that they play Ten in sequence since its 25th anniversary is coming up.
-Unemployable
-Leash and Oceans (because why request one song when you can request 2?)
-Sonic Reducer
-Evil Little Goat, because realistic requests are the best
-Thumbing My Way for someone's dead mom (hey, it worked at Fenway!)
-Strangest Tribe because the poster is dying to hear it (not actually dead like other posts)
-World Wide Suicide and You Are (again, you've gotta ask for two of you think you've got the band's ear)
-Force of Nature
-Crazy Mary because FUCK CANCER
-Just A Girl because why not play all the awful songs?

And
Man Of The Hour
Mankind
Centerfield, Surrender and Better Things. What kind of asshole requests 3 covers?

Dear Pearl Jam,

I know you get a lot of song requests, but this one is important. My dad recently came out to me and my mom. He told us his truth, for the first time ever, that he is gay and his strict upbringing caused him to deny his true self for over 40 years. He has been living a double life and was now moving in with the man he loves. We all cried. Some were tears of pain, some joy, and some regret, but all I feel now is that he is one of the bravest men I know. To honor his new path in life, could you please play "Sick O' Pussies" for him?

You're joking, right?

I want a rain out so bad.

I want a rain out so bad.

It might almost be worth it to watch the resulting meltdown on the Pit.

[Simple Torture]

They'd probably play on Sunday if it rained Saturday, right?
