Please do NOT play free bird. Uggh. Gag me w/ a spoon. I'm surprised any Pearl Jam fan would want to hear them cover that rather than play their own material.

does anyone read all the post or just the opener then skip to the end and post your own thoughts -
D is asking for FreeBird to be played at ANY Euro show except Poland, so all you haters with tickets in the states This Is Not For You -
Why all the turned up noses - imagine the 3 guitars in Pearl Jam doing this song - and not because they are so fing good but ANY song they cover always comes out awesome - D is being original and asking for something I have never heard requested before so yeah give the kid a break You go Dimitirs!!!! I hope more than anyone you get what you ask for!!!!
I am not knocking anyone personally, or digging at their time on the forums, or helping people... etc.
I just can't comprehend... for the life of me... why any fan of Pearl Jam would want to waste 15 minutes of a show listening to a cheesey song like Free Bird. You know Skynrd still tours, and they have closed every show for 30 straight years with Free Bird. Go get tickets to see them if thats what you crave.
Again, nothing personal again anyone. Its an awful song, and an awful request.
and yes...then its time to burn on stage that 59 guitar

I agree. I don't think you have to worry about them playing this song though. Everyone knows how close PJ is to Neil Young and how Neil Young and Skynard don't like each other (the song Southern Man is about Skynard). Back in '98 at a show in Camden they played the opening chord to Sweet Home Alabama...only to have Ed cut things short and say "oh, come on, you don't want to hear that shit"

No chance they cover a skynard song
Yeah but this is different because its a request coming from, quite possibly, their greatest fan.

hate to rain on anyone's parade, and I don't mean any disrespect, but this request has no chance in hell of happening. I'd recommend starting a new request thread with a song that has a chance of actually being played

YEAH!!!! Reply to my dirty frank in cleveland thread then. But I still hope by some freak chance Dimitris gets Freebird
first of all i didnt open a thread and request the song...i love that song ,especially the solo and my opinion is that mike will blow my mind with the solo..a friend from Scotland start this for the reason he explain in the OP and couse he knows i want that pj to cover it..really im exciting for all this positive post..i know this probably never happen but u never know..i dont think that alot of u can be negative to someone dreams or wants. And i guess couldnt ever imagine that u go to a pj show and u see live on stage someone propose to his girlfriend to married him and eddie play a song for them..
i love the band,im a fan the same as u all.u can count levels of fans love..there is no bigger fan.faithfull yes..
if they ever play it i ll be the happiest man on earth..if not ill fuckin rockin the place with every song they play
and as Eddie said in Berlin "Be well - live long - love as much as you can! Thank you!"

Nicely put D! Like the man says the post was put up for my reasons, he was completely unaware and that was a decision I made, nothing to do with Dimitris. If someone is more deserving of a request whether it's a PJ song or a cover then by all means I support that too but if the thought of PJ covering Freebird makes you gag then you shouldn't read the post. The hope is that enough people back it and someone takes notice, not that I think the band are here reading this but if they are I don't think they're saying, "Fuck this, Uncle Neil wouldn't approve." It's only a request guys and it's only music and a bit of fun to pass the hours for a few people who care more about the music than the politics that surround it. I'll back up your request when it comes but meantime this is a chance in a million for a true fan to get something back for what he does for his fellow fans and if he doesn't get it he still rocks his hardest for PJ for 11 shows this summer! How many happier people do you know?

The Porch: The forum where dreams can become reality Thanks to the 53 positives so far. I'm surprised that with a Benny Hall vinyl up for grabs from the man himself there's not more takers? :? Freebird isn't that bad you know and PJ could make Slam Dunk Da Funk sound ok

As far as I'm concerned, this is the best version of the song I've ever seen:

its no cheesier than ALive or Even FLow or any other great classic arena rocker.
if you like anything off of Backspacer, you have no ability to judge a song's cheesiness anyway.
