Parting Ways and Rival are my two faves from Binaural - they're great. I suppose I don't list them as there are so many others songs that I have yet to see live but have a better chance of seeing live.
Sonic Reducer! The more I never hear it live, the more I want to hear it. Hasn't been played in Vancouver or Seattle arena shows since I start attending shows in '98... They were playing it in Eastern Leg of the 2013 tour, but then it got stuck back in the closet for the Western half of the tour :(

Heard it in 93. They need to bring it back to heavy rotation.

All or None, which I heard in LA in 2013. I still consider it a white whale song since once is not enough but one I would really want to hear and have not, is Thumbing my Way
I am just a dreamer, but you are just a dream... If I knew where it was I would take you there.

Lucky to have heard it 4 times between 09-13
It's crazy how some people's white whale's are someone else common occurance. Everytime I see someone want crown of thorns, I twinge, because they play it all the time at the Vancouver & Seattle shows

I know that feeling. Recently I told someone my white whale was Hard To Imagine and their response was "it was the first pearl jam song I ever got" haha @Jeremys Spoken

Well now you got me curious so I checked out the last songs of my 17 full shows:
Yellow Yellow Baba Baba Yellow All Along the Watchtower Indifference Yellow Kick Out the Jams Yellow RITFW Indifference Yellow Indifference Yellow Indifference Yellow
I've been to only five shows and I got my fav song played, though I can't go song hunting for the time being, so there is a long list of songs I would like to see live, but who knows, it's a long shot, but here's the list...
Oceans Wash Breath Dirty Frank Brother (from redux) Rats Leash Alone Last Exit Tremor Christ Whipping (again) Bugs Satan's Bed Long Road In My Tree Off He Goes Mankind Present Tense Brain Of J Faithful Untitled/MFC (the second again) Leatherman U Fuckin' Up Binaural in full Can't Keep (PJ version) Cropduster Ghost Help Help 1/2 full ( again) All Or None Sad Down Don't Gimme No Lip Hitchhiker In The Moonlight Education Undone Hold On Fatal Other Side Hard To Imagine Avocado in full but for Life Wasted and Wasted Reprise Unthought Known (again) Speed Of Sound Force Of Nature Getaway My Father's Son Lightning Bolt (again) Infallible Swallowed Whole (again) Let The Records Play Sleeping By Myself Yellow Moon
... I am not in the business of being liked anymore ...
I, like many have been pretty lucky. I've gotten all of my White Whales that 16 year old me never thought I would hear (Wash, Sonic Reducer, No Way, Oceans, HTI.)
29 shows later and now chasing: Undone Of the Girl
My girlfriend is at 5 shows and needs Yellow Ledbetter.

I haven't had a white whale since hearing "Tremor Christ" and "Footsteps" (twice!) in 2013. I would like to hear "Leash," "Around the Bend," "Evacuation," "Army Reserve," "Amongst the Waves," "Speed of Sound," "Force of Nature," "My Father's Son," and "Sleeping by Myself" to complete the studio albums, but none of them are really white whales. I'll be perfectly alright if I never hear "Leash" live.
The song I haven't heard that I most want to hear is obviously "Dirty Frank."
