Because three days after seeing them perform I'm still in awe of what i witnessed and the only therapy i can find is right here right know Thanks to all who post here it's the only place i can feel like someone is listening ..
because my neighbor (who i have converted into a big PJ fan) has a 12 year old daughter that just asked me to borrow a PJ t-shirt to wear to school on "favorite band" t-shirt day.
they are the best because they 'sexy dance' for us (oh yes, im talking about the mccready solo's at MSG 2)
They are the best because they are in it for the right reasons.. im sure the money's good but its a complex being a musician especially a famous one (not that i know how a famous one feels but i get the musician part )
oh and did i mention they are the best because they played BLACK FN RED YELLOW? I mean come on now .. that made my soul kick out the jams ..
Hold me, and make it the truth,...
That when all is lost there will be you,...
Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing
And there's just one word I still believe
.. because they have so many great songs with meaningfull lyrics
20 years on and they're live shows just keep getting better and better, and the fact that your never sure what they're going to play, so each show is special.. which is why people travel from all over the world to go see them live....
and because of US. we are not just like individual fans of the band.... we are a JAMMILY

their great live! Most bands play the same set list every night, Pearl Jam is one of the few bands that mixes their set lists up and that's one of the reasons I like them (and their music ain't too shabby either :P )

1. Have a lot of songs I want to crank.
2. Give me chills every time they come on stage.
3. Realized I wasn't only one saying WTF during dubya'a regime.
only pj can put the following words together and make sense out of them
Retrenchment and hoggishness
The aristocrat choir sings
'What's the ruckus?'
The haves have not a clue
The immenseness of suffering
And the odd negotiation, a rarity
With onionskin plausibility of life,...
And a keyboard reaffirmation
Because:
Don't it make you... Smile

The man they call my enemy, I've seen his eyes
He looks just like me, a mirror
The more you read, we've been deceived
Everyday it becomes clearer,...
They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

Pearl Jam is best because they were apart of all the fun stuff this weekend, making it better!
