SO MUCH better than the ones from 03. I know obviously Mikes solo was awesome but I have never heard a song showcase Matts playing better in PJ than this cover. Best drumming performance by him in PJ easily. I NEED this song to be played at philly!

    Wow, that is pretty good.

    I am curious, though ... When did Pearl Jam replace Stone Gossard with 1980s MacKenzie Phillips? Nice haircut ...

    This is one of my favorite covers that the band does ... Nice to see it make an appearance (along with Jeremy). Some of my gleaming positivity about this tour has wavered a bit, as I am not sure about the recent trend to do the strings/Eddie solo thing every show ... Lukin with strings? Um, WTF? A bit too artsy for me. Why not give the other guys an acoustic and try a band version of Just Breathe? I don't know ... Ed has a solo tour option for this kind of stuff.

    I'm pretty sure the Lukin with strings was meant to be a joke ... sort of a further extension of the acoustic Lukin.

    Lukin with strings was a joke.. didn't think that would need to be clarified :roll:

    Thanks for filling me in, Ed. Nice to see you on the boards ... Please play Parachutes next show, K? And don't hate me for knocking the stringed Lukin. You're still a badass dude.

    String quartets in rock music suck ... Parachutes is great.

    What the hell does any of this have to do with the song I posted?
