I imagine some would refuse to vote for it on principle, but I could see others voting for it over any number of commonly disliked songs (i.e. much of Backspacer or Lightning Bolt) as a statement. Depending on matchups I could see it advancing at least two rounds.

It's weird, since the solo output of the other members have often been stronger than that of Ed. Certainly there are songs that are superior to many of the Ed songs.

I go through it in the original post, but a few reasons:
1. I needed more songs to get to 256 so we could avoid having any bye rounds. It makes setting this up MUCH easier
2. I wanted to include some songs we haven't voted on before
3. Those two albums got us most of the way there (and it is the bulk of his solo output - everyone else but mike has a lot more music)
4. I know the Eddie solo stuff WAY better then everyone else's solo stuff, and because you can fit most of it in the space available.

Say Hi is my personal favorite of the three but I'd vote to include Out of Sand.
I don't think it really matters. It's just an extra body to fill out the count.

Eddie’s cover of Growing Up might make it a few rounds, or we could use Far Behind by Candlebox and Far Behind by Eddie Vedder as a first round matching of the titans.

Safe in the Car by Jeff Ament would probably make it at least to the quarterfinals for me.
