A Completely Self-Centered Birthday Wish

edited May 2010 in The Porch
So today is my birthday and it's been a crap year. But things are looking up this weekend as I'm traveling to Hartford and Boston for my 12th and 13th shows. The one song I've been desperately wanting to hear is LIGHT YEARS. I was hoping this rarely played gem would hold off until one of these shows, but it popped up in Buffalo. So here's to hoping it will make an unexpected appearance at Hartford or Boston. People going to those shows, you wouldn't mind that, right?

    PORCH is my favorite Pearl Jam song. I've been lucky enough to see it twice in 11 shows. I've always thought it would make an amazing closer. LIGHT YEARS is my #2 though and I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Thanks!

    Happy Birthday. And I'll take Satan's Bed and a lottery win as well. Along with Light Years, of course. Good luck with your tickets.

    Porch is indeed amazing live. My favorite concert song. Loved the old days when Ed would climb anything in sight, but I'm also digging the newer versions with Ed starting on guitar. Amazing song!
