Who's better band and/or live band Pearl Jam or Zeppelin?

Post by flannelking »

Serious question. I need peace of mind about this. Both seem to better than the other in different aspects. Someone please end the war raging inside my head over this. Sometimes I wish PJ to be more epic both in studio and live, wishing they would also kidnap JPJ at least for touring purposes. Yet other times I pat myself on the back and say, "it's ok, romeo, despite Page's volume of long live solos, Mike sounds much better.

I can't really think of many bands that could match a young Zeppelin live. Live At Leeds era Who maybe.

You're asking the wrong forum, buddy. We both simultaneously love and hate Pearl Jam. Our answers will not only contradict each other, you'll probably walk away with a mild aneurysm too.

Enjoy.

This is worse than the "Who has ruined their legacy more, U2 or Pearl Jam?" thread idea.

Though to be fair, some pretty solid discourse saved that trainwreck. I don't know that I see that happening here.


Over/Under on there being a person on this board who has seen both bands live...go!

Both bands in their prime were as good as it gets in my opinion.

Led Zeppelin are better than PJ at two particular things:

1) writing derivative songs that people don't care are derivative because they're cool.
2) having John Bonham.

My next grand post will be one I created and pulled from another forum. It will be a real treat for you. I will soon bless a Led Zeppelin forum with it.

Pearl Jam are better than Led Zeppelin at three particular things:

1) rising from the ashes of Mother Love Bone
2) having Kenneth 'Boom' Gasper
3) Working with Brendan O'Brien


So Pearl Jam wins?
