If Pearl Jam was to cover KISS.

Been down a KISS rabbit hole lately. First time I really tried to listen to them. Turned into a great fan of Ace Frehley as a person and the soap opera that has been Kiss since the 70s.
Also, I've realised that Pearl Jams Black Diamond cover doesn't top the original with Peter Criss singing. And with few exceptions I usually favour Pearl jams covers over the originals.
Anyways, if Pearl Jam would do a Kiss cover and it's not Black Diamond - which song should they do?
I'm thinking Ace Frehleys Into the Void:
"Mostly I think that people react sensitively because they know you’ve got a point"

I'd go with "Detroit Rock City", but I like the Bosstone version.
"Beth" would be too easy
"I Wanna Rock and Roll All Night" seems too easy too.
How's about "Love Gun"?
Nah..."Detroit Rock City"

Also EV should dye his hair really black on the nights he sings it.
On the other hand how about no, no covers of KISS, it is not them.
I think that's my favourite KISS song. Probably because of the way it closes out Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey
I saw KISS play here a few years back.... The show was ok.. but pretty meh... but insult to the wound was they never played it.. but played it over the PA when the lights came up.. grrrrr!!!
Would love to see PJ play it.

Focusing on their girl boots for the first bit....and then all of the 'pee in the mouth' substitutes....to think I liked that song way back when.
