Sometimes

and probably a few more, but that's all just kinda off the top of my head

Release
Corduroy
Hard to imagine
In my tree
Present tense
I got ID
Faithfull
In hiding
Sleight of hand
Parting ways

Strength of the catalogue is best shown by what's left out.

that is for sure, even with the list of outside of my top 10 top 10 songs i included, once i saw your list i realized i had forgotten about Long Road and I Got Shit, both would have been on one list or the other. so many fantastic songs

We have such different tastes in so many things. I am surprised at your list. Mine may not look much different. Imteresting.

Right now, at this particular moment in time?

Around the Bend
No Way
Evacuation
Cropduster
Rival
Sleight of Hand
In the Moonlight
Strangest Tribe
Man of the Hour
Parachutes

These are the 10 I'm feeling right now:

Rival
All Those Yesterdays
Strangest Tribe
Tremor Christ
Immortality
Sad
Hitchhiker (yes, I'm seriously digging it right now.)
In The Moonlight
Thin Air
Can't Keep

Off the top of my head:

In My Tree
State of Love & Trust
Light Years
Parting Ways
Immortality
Alive
Sad
Nothingman
Corduroy
Given to Fly

Of course this is fluid but any list would include at least some of these.
I should probably do a within the last 10 years list, counting Lost Dogs.

Tremor Christ
Strangest Tribe
Rival
No Way
Parting Ways
I got Shit
Rats
Around the Bend
Cropduster
Last Exit

Hmm...the top spot never seems to change, but beyond that, it's up for grabs.

Insignificance
Do The Evolution
Corduroy
Indifference
Last Exit
Rival
Sleight of Hand
All or None
Go
I Got Shit

Immortality
In My Tree
Do the Evolution
All Those Yesterdays
Long Road
Parting Ways
Of the Girl
Cropduster
In The Moonlight

Given the strong overlap in these lists, you would think some of these would get played more. Parting Ways, SoH, and In The Moonlight could fit pretty well into most setlists without offending the noobs.

Yup, and they would also play to the band's current strengths. I cringe when I see Blood on a setlist these days.

but when you are there, Blood is still a fun one to get, i might prefer some of the lesser played or more fitting to Eds voice songs, but im never upset with Blood

and seriously, what the is the harm of introducing new songs to noobs anyway?

Really...they could take it.

and plus its Pearl Jam, they could play whatever the they want.

well, actually, I think they do.

maybe they really really really like performing Even Flow and Elderly Woman is all.

Five honorable mentions:

Oceans
Smile
Fatal
Marker in the Sand
Johnny Guitar

1. Alive
2. Corduroy
3. Last Exit
4. Black
5. Porch
6. Yellow Ledbetter
7. Do the Evolution
8. I Am Mine
9. Comatose
10. World Wide Suicide

Really after 3 I couldn't really put these in order. If this was an all time list I'd add Given To Fly, Indifference, Rearview Mirror, SOLAT, Even Flow, Breath, and Satan's Bed, all of which were either a favorite or really damn close at one point or another
