    Great song, even better live.

    Pearl Jam, I beg of you, in your soon-to-be-announced 2008 tour (c'mon, we ALL know it's coming...) please throw in the following songs on a semi-regular basis: Help Help, Ghost, Get Right, Evacuation, Rival, Parting Ways, All Those Yesterdays, Pilate, No Way.

    It's been far too long between drinks for ALL of those songs.

    Thank you for praising this song. Another odd Jeff meoldy like Pilate. Sometimes musically I can't relate to a lot of PJ fans, some of my fave songs are help,help, rival, evacuation and these are the songs the people despise in favor of an utter bore like in my tree

    this is one of the few live songs that I wish for before each show, really amazing live. It's in the boat with evacuation of people hating the studio version and having no idea how much they rock live.

    hmm maybe we can get it at roo! gotta get in my tree and gtf too! and i haven't heard animal in a while and i miss it a lot! (didn't get it at the vic or lolla)
    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?

    Agreed. Just recently I've found Ghost, and what an incredible song it is. I'd love to hear all of those!

    I've never heard Help Help live. But I've never understood the criticism the studio version gets. I think it's one of the (few) highlights of Riot Act. Catchy and different, same with You Are.

    I don't like Riot Act but it's nice to see that the band experimented a bit. Some worked, and some didn't.

    Yes, more Jeff songs and more Matt songs added to the sets!!!

    Agreed, Help Help is rockin' live. I'd love to see the return of (regular tempo) Nothing As It Seems, Cropduster, even Evacuation. Shit, forgetting which others.

    And what happened to Of The Girl?

    Check out Bonner Springs from 2003. The setlist is fantastic: Get Right, Ghost, Help Help, 1/2 Full, You Are, Fuckin Up, Brain of J, Immortality. Great show!

    Nothing As It Seems needs to make a comeback as well.
