If they gradually slowed towards something like Just Breathe over the space of a few songs, it'd be OK. But they do stuff like sandwich "Just Breathe" in between "Last Exit" and "Animal."
This could be seen as corny, but for that breather towards the second half or end of a set,
I think a little acoustic set could be great. It borders on cheesy almost falling into it, but I think the majority of the fans would be into it
I'd prefer that to their usual jarring mix of genres. Benaroya Hall was perfect.
I listened to that once. Got not even halfway through and turned it off. That's not what I go to Pj for. As a deep breath during a show, fine, as a whole set though? Not for me thanks

I don't even like Of the Earth very much, and I'd go for this.

I like LB enough, but a record called OTE featuring the song would've been fine with me.

Nah. Name the album Ole and put Nacho Libre on the cover.

Maybe it's just that you can appreciate different things for different reasons, or even while acknowledging the problems with it.
Much like the way I really like LTRP, cropduster, and ghost and many other On the board seem to have a general distaste for them. What ever floats your boat.

A lot of people here like Cropduster and Ghost. They're much better than LTRP.

I don't buy into the argument that they picked one song instead of another. BS was a 37 minute album it's not like there was any danger of running out of space for a song or 4.

Yeah I don't think anyone's arguing that. When people say they picked song X over another they just mean they're aware of better songs that could've been put on instead.

I already think LB is better for pearl jam than:
King Animal- SG
The Devil Put..- AIC
Hesitation Marks- NIN
If not now when - Incubus

That album blows.
I think this'll be up there with SG's if any of these songs can reach the heights of "A Thousand Days Before". I love NIN's album so this'll have to sink in for a while before I decide it's better.

Which one? Both

? Pt.1 pt.2....
But yeah, it really does seem like it'd suit album more than ltrp.

I think LTRP suits the album thematically, it just could be a better song.
