Haha. You gotta love whining about the people who pay your wages. I would love to see my balance sheet at the end of the year if I complained about my paying clients like that.
All bands make songs that even the biggest fans of said band perceive as shit songs. I love this band and most of it's music but just mention Come Back to me and watch my Pavlovian response of vomiting in disgust. Does it mean that it's a horrible song to everyone? No. It is only a horrible song to me (and anyone else with a decent taste in music -- lol).
This thread smacks of singling out frequently played songs more than anything else. Everyone knows that only a set full of rare songs will make a Pearl Jam concert worth seeing. I have seen the band 78,543 times and if I hear Evenflow one more time I swear that I'm going to complain about it on the internet.
Wow that's funny you should mention that, because just yesterday I was Haha. You gotta love whining about the people who pay your wages. I would love to see my balance sheet at the end of the year if I complained about my paying clients like that.

I'm right there with ya, dude. In fact I breathed a sigh of relief when they stopped "Come Back" at Philly 2. If I wanted to hear that kind of crap I would go to a Bon Jovi concert.
I did this a while ago for another thread, and I post it with the huge note that I had to really try hard to come up with this many songs to make a 'nightmare setlist.' I actually like most of the songs on here, but if I had to pick the songs I'd like to hear LEAST at a show...
main set: supersonic,get right,nothing as it seems,even flow,unemployable,elderly woman,i am mine,daughter,off he goes,wishlist,WMA,sleight of hand,jeremy,black,comatose
enc 1: no more,bee girl,inside job,betterman,
enc 2: the end,last kiss,speed of sound,crazy mary,alive
In my opinion, a nightmare setlist doesn't exist with this band. Every song I've ever heard live was a treat.
with look like that and pj party username how can anyone say no to you?
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."
“..That came up on the Pillow Case...This is for the Greek, With Our Apologies.....”

Stunned by my own reflection, it's looking back sees me too clearly and I swore I'd never go there again. Not unlike a friend that politely drags you down.

And tragedy ensues when upon the first note from Corin the arena is filled with hundreds of stray cats from the area seeking out the female in heat. The cats go feral when they find out what was calling them, mauling several high-seniority members. The mauled members surprisingly leave happy because it was ultra-rare to be mauled by cats at a PJ concert.
