Hahaha, I couldn't wait to read what veddertown had to say in reply to my post. I knew he'd lose it...I love it.
:shock: Am I that predictable!
I wouldn't even dream of doing anything other than respecting honest opinions. I do fucking hate comments about the band from people who only know a couple of songs from 20 years ago though. Like, Are they still going? Are they back together? Altogether now.....
EVEN FLOOOOOW......
I know! That's the worst. I was wearing my PJ20 Buck shirt from Alpine Valley at CVS the other night and the clerk was like "Pearl Jam? They're still around?". All I could do is say yep, 20 years strong.

The thing I like most about time is that it's not real. It's all in the head. Sure, it's a useful trick to use if you want to meet someone at a specific place in the universe and have tea or coffee- but that's all it is- a trick. There is no such thing as the past. It exists only in the memory. There is no such thing as the future. It exists only in our imagination. If our watches were truly accurate, the only thing they would ever say is "Now". That's what time it is. It's "Now". - Damien Echols
I hadn't thought that far ahead? Maybe there should be a t-shirt for the Even Flow faithful. I'd love to get my hands on an Even Flow Psychos shirt! I have a design in mind....

+1 here too. it's always been one of my favorite songs, especially live although the studio versions absolutely rock wicked hard. it's also the song that got me into the band from the first time i ever heard it on my old cassette of ten. i say play it as loud as you can because the louder you play it the better it sounds. i suppose the more people that take piss breaks, the more room i have to rock out when it's played, but really nobody should be leaving to piss during this song. if i can recall from an article i read, maybe the rolling stone with avocado? mike saying something to the effect that its like his favorite song to play live. wonder if it still is. people should stop talking trash about even flow and appreciate it because it holds some of mike's sickest solos ever. one of my personal top favorites of this song is albany, ny from the 2003 tour. maybe i'm partial because i was there, but it is soooo f-ing tight. mike just ripe it up. this song totally makes me want to pound a beer! cheers to even flow!

One my favorite lines of Eddie, describing Mike McCready after Even Flow, Chicago 2000-08-24...
"He has to play that song or else he'll fucking kill somebody! And I have a nominee for, uh...Mike, next time you don't play that song, this guy right here. This guy...he's wearing a shirt that says, 'No Even Flow'. I suggest you kill him first. I know you'd take him by yourself, but if you need help, I'm, I'm...You know, the thing is, sir, we take requests, not orders. You should know better than that."
epic....the best i saw live.....
cant wait for the next brain damage this song does to me at the next 8 shows at euro tour im going..
cant imagine a show with out this song..with out God communicate with heaven...
psstt..Mike...psstt God...seeya at the only side exist at a pj show....

I'm soooo glad I found this topic! I absolutely love Even Flow! This is my favorite PJ song by far!!! Here is the thing though... I've only been a fan of PJ for about a year (regretfully, it took me this long to discover them :( ). Prior to 2011 I only knew Alive and Jeremy :oops:, so to me Even Flow is a very new song. I guess my feelings about Even Flow are comparable to the feelings of the long time PJ fans in the early 90s. I wonder how I am going to feel about it in 20 years.

I keep blasting Even Flow in my car everyday! I hope PJ will play it in Atlanta this September, so that when everybody else takes a bathroom break, I'll be able to get closer to the stage for my favorite song.

However, it seemed the bathroom break of choice at MSG1 last month.
I've taken one bathroom break in my ten shows, and it was during Even Flow at MSG 1 2010. Oops, I couldnt hold it anymore and had seen this song a few times already. I got back in time for Mike's solo!
Haha I've never seen this thread before! I love Even Flow! The first time I saw PJ live (which wasn't that long ago) I teared up at this song. That was the moment where it really sunk in that I was actually seeing/hearing these guys live..right there in front of me...rocking the shit right outta' me! A song I had heard so many times before, embedded into my brain, now being played live right in front of me. A fave moment of mine for sure!
i'm in - i don't get it either, why people use it as a piss break, its a fucking great song.

Here's a question for the serious "Society" members...
One thing I've noticed from listening to the Binaural/2000 tour boots is that Stone doesn't play the guitar part after Mike's solo. All you hear is Matt's drums, as awesome as they are, then the chorus comes in without Stone.
When (what year) did Stone stop, then start again, playing the guitar intro at the end of Mike's solo and before Ed (and the crowd now) comes back with the chorus?
