Why severed hand as worst? Why Light Years? Light Years to me always sounds better live than on the album.

It used to. The last couple of times they played it, it was as fast as Even Flow.

That said, I've still never gotten it live and it's right at the top of the list.

lmao at Eddie playing the guitar part in the wrong key and then singing the first note and being like ".....oh"

At first I thought they were downtuning and was like wtf



I still dont think its that bad the Binaural version is kind of boring to me so I dont mind the extra kick

Probably not. But now that we've mentioned it, surely Dev will create one.

We're talking about modern Pearl Jam right?

Ten
Best: Why Go - I feel like they still kill it on this song. Eddie sounds good. Everybody's on fire.
Worst: Once - This song absolutely requires Eddie's younger vocal chords.

Vs
Best: Glorified G - At first I put Animal, cause I've always liked the way Matt drums it, but then I remembered how good Glorified G has been. I'm a bit surprised at this one myself, it seems like it could be hard for Eddie to sing nowadays, but he does great.
Worst: Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town - This song has lost everything it once had going for it.

Vitalogy
Best: Immortality - Still awesome. When they play this song shit seems to get pretty real for 2016 Pearl Jam.
Worst: Corduroy - I might have said Corduroy even before the call and response. Eddie struggles.

No Code
Best: Habit - I've seen several Habit performances from the last couple of years that have been just outstanding.
Worst: Lukin - Great song, kinda terrible live nowadays.

Yield
Best: Pilate - Stone just bang bang bangs the hell outta this one, I love it. Eddie handles the singing quite well. Almost went for DTE though.
Worst: Given to Fly - It's not real bad, just not what it could be.

Binaural

Best: Grievance - They should play this song at every concert. Still as good as its ever been, almost.
Worst: Evacuation - This kills me, because I love Evacuation, but if they're ever going to sound great on this one they need to practice.

Riot Act

Best: Cropduster - This song might not be the best every time, but it can be the best sometimes, and when it is I love it.
Worst: Thumbing My Way - I guess.

Pearl Jam

Best: Severed Hand - Big fan of this song and they pretty much nail.
Worst: Life Wasted - I think they should try playing this early in a set more often.

Backspacer
Best - Gonna See My Friend - They still do these kinds of songs really well.
Worst - Unthought Known - blegh

Lightning Bolt
Best: Mind your Manners - This song kicks ass live, play it as fast as you want Pearl Jam.
Worst: Swallowed Whole - Eddie almost always fucks up the lyrics quite a bit, guitars don't sound great. Needs some atmosphere to really sound good, I think.

Fuck that took forever mjd, you're expecting a lot out of us here.
