Honestly though. It needs to be what it is exactly from the record. Not even a hint of overspeed.

It'll die on its arse if they play this too fast.

Yeah I kind of agree. Did you ever hear a live version of Johnny Guitar? That might give you a clue.

I've seen it live and I can't say I noticed anything wrong.

It was the most perfect Pj gig I was ever at though

(God bless you Berlin)

i agree. if they speed it up it will take away all the groove and flow it has, needs to be kept at the same pace. oh and jeffs bass must be nice and high in the mix :)

This is a great fucking song.

Classic Pj big barn stormer.

And as on Hail Hail, ed proving he can do a huge rock tune without having to scream his head off. He's actually singing and it's brilliant :) 5stars.

Best Pj rock song since...well since a long long time

It reminds me more of Last Exit than Hail, Hail but I agree. It's a great song.
Pearl Jam is the only band I'll spend money on.

Austin City Limits. The televised show they did the day before the festival appearance.

It was for most of the set. Ed was really hoarse and the ballads suffered. IIRC, he really struggled with "The End".

I didnt mean that it winds like hail hail. It doesn't. At all. But that same quality of belting out a big song and just singing it. Without having to scream. More of that please ed.

Haha. Disney:)

The thing I remember most from it was one of the better versions of Inside Job(I know, I know) that I've heard.

When they play this live, they should jam it out at the end, and then after that, leave the drums going while Ed leads the crowd in a game of "Simon Says" in time with the rhythm.

The more I hear this song the more I love it. I am really excited to see how this shakes out live.

It's great once they warm up. Do the evolution goes off.
