I definitely agree. This is an edit I did, with a much tighter ending, without much vedderism.

I just don't understand how people can feel that way about Quick Escape especially. That song never fails to get me deep in my Pearl Jam fan feels.

After Iowa, Quick Escape is topically relevant again. Celebrate where you can.

Quick Escape is wonderful. That bridge ...and that solo at the end.
Love the groove too, very Zep
Hope they do more in this vein

QE has some strong elements, but taken as a whole, it’s not top tier on Gig.
DoTC is the crown jewel of the album.
WES is a much better example of a 5 minute triumph than QE could ever be.

I mean, I prefer Quick Escape to Who Ever Said, but I like both songs.

they are very different to me.
WES is more of a straight rocker but done well and in the vein of a classic pj tune from lets say, 1996 or 1998. QE is more of a monster, a stomper. It has this huge groove that reminds me of Zep for sure.
