I saw one called "Itchy Fish" and they were good. Good musicians and good songs, so if you can't enjoy that they you need to do some introspection.
To me it was a no Brainer...Soon as i found out bout it...i was there...
What better time can you have on a friday night,. than getting to hear PJ music w/ 100+ other pj fans...
well obviously, beside seeing Pearljam w/ 20,000 other fans...
Sadly,...i'm not on the coast and havent had the opportunity to see Pearl jam 50x like so many of you on here...They've been to Omaha once since 1992...So ya, everytime they're in Kansas City or the twin city's up north in Minnesota...were' there...but them shows are pretty far an few between themselves...
not to mention not getting wrigly tix...twice, ouch...but i'm not complaining...I'm waiting stub hub out...
Seeing the tribute bands more than fills the void for many of us...have an open mind...and have drink mate!

I always feel like "Why see a tribute band when the original still tours?!?"
I know they dont tour as much, but kinda seems pointless to me, but if its in your hometown and free or reasonable cover for a bar then yea I would consider checking it out.
If you do let us know how it was!
A lot of times they play benifit shows for cetain causes...Wishlist foundation being one of them...
Here in Omaha,..the cover is usually $10 bucks or less and you can get a morgan and coke for $5 bucks w/ at least 3 ounces of morgan in it...few bartenders measure here unless your at a yuppie sports bar chain...
Just for shits, i did write down one of their sets one night, and here's what they played...
Also helps when the singer sounds "close enough" on most of the tunes....

I used to manage one back in the early 90's and there really isn't anything wrong with people wanted to get together and have a good time, watching the game and eating fancy bar food...
not sure what i was thinking when i made this post...but i woke up one night and wasn't happy with remembering what i said about them...
so just to clear the record...
peace to all whom enjoy's a good time...no matter where your at...
