Has the band ever said anything about Elvis Presley influencing them. I went to an ed show in Memphis, and saw Elvis's plane. I couldn't help but notice the similarities between EP's "Takin care of business in a flash" and PJ's "Love Boat Captain".

PS. I saw Eddie at Graceland (Elvis' house).

    as convincing as that evidence is, i know that elvis is at least a secondary influence...

    Elvis was a HUGE influence on Roger Daughtry of The Who and we all know The Who's impact on Eddie and Pearl Jam

    The LBC logo was a takeoff of on the TCB logo. It was no accident. It was intentional.
