Just a couple days ago, it was announced that Canadian alt-rockers Our Lady Peace have scheduled a cross-Canada tour playing theatres, instead of the arena shows they usually play (and fill). They are playing two dates in each venue, the first night playing Clumsy in its entirety, and then a second set of selected songs from their playlist, and the second night they will play Spiritual Machines in full, again, with a second set of selected songs from their playlist.

I thought this was a very cool idea, firstly, because this is a band that can fill 10K-15K arenas close to capacity, and the theatre in Winnipeg they are playing houses fewer than 2K seats. And secondly, because they are playing TWO albums in their entirety. You can choose which show, and subsequently, which album you want to hear.

If Pearl Jam were to do this, which two albums would you want played in their entirety? And if you could only attend one of the two nights, which would it be?

I would choose VS and Vitalogy, with Vitalogy being my top pick. They could play the "weirdo" tracks (Pry, Bugs, and Stupid Mop) over the loudspeaker during the intermission. :lol:

    Pretty simple really, Although as cool an idea as this is, I would defintely miss a LOT of tracks from other albums

    I'm a bit of a newbie, but my understanding is that part of the charm of a Pearl Jam concert is not knowing what song's coming next. This concept would take away some of that charm, wouldn't it? It would still be awesome nevertheless.

    You all missed the easy choice.... Lost Dogs!

    My second choice is TEN Redux, and it is soley to hear Oceans. Brother, Just a Girl, are bonuses, they can skip the improv crap.
