Botched Live Songs
I am interested to know if anyone knows of any performances of songs that Pearl Jam has botched up. I was listening to the Fargo(June 15, 2003) boot and they botched up In My Tree pretty good but I loved the improv and the human aspect of not being perfect all the time.
I also enjoyed Don't Cry No Tears f-up at the Bridge School Benefit this year, although I don't think the language was required!
Does anyone know of any other performances of songs that were less than perfect?

Thin Air- Benaroya 03And so you see, I have come to doubt
All that I once held as true
I stand alone without beliefs
The only truth I know is you.0 -
Nothing As It Seems -Zurich 00.Two Feet Thick had this to say about it...Stone’s guitar is out of tune at the start of ‘NAIS’ which prompts the song to stop before Ed sings “All this funny tuning”, says Stone, smiling, “when we play it next time it will be so much better.” True to his word, Ed introduces ‘NAIS’ after ‘Dissident’ saying “A song you might have heard before, like four minutes ago.”My PJ shows:

At that point they hadn't played the song for 3 years. The next time they played it 6/26 it's not as bad but it's still fucked up. What's an album track for when we can make up our own words on the spot?
It's still a great song. Boston 5/17/10
Tres Mts. 3/27/11
EV Solo:Providence 6/15/11 Boston 6/16/11 Hartford 6/18/11
PJ20 9/3/11-9/4/11
Concert Wishlist: I am Mine, Marker in the Sand, Parachutes, In Hiding, All Those Yesterdays, I Got Shit, Long Road, Light Years0 -
