    I am changing my mind on White Whale song , I put LBC but there is a decent change I will hear it someday. If I think of one of my fav songs that I know I will never get it is Education.

    That said I have only been to four shows and have gotten , Alone , Angel , Tremor Christ , Out of My Mind , Strangest Tribe , Sleeping By Myself , Come Back all in there.

    So there is always a chance.

    Yeah it was funny how pretty much noone gave a toss about Dirty Water as they were so disappointed. Normally it'd have had a great reception as Taillights Fade.

    That gig was the first one I've been to where none of my white whales at the time were played. Nine times I guess means it would be bound to happen and there are countless fans who have yet to see them even once so I'm counting my blessings to have what you may call a PJ first world problem. At present I'd go with Oceans, Glorified G and Nothing As It Seems.

    Hard to Imagine has to be played this year. Great tune and very fitting for the times.

    HAHA, but like I said, I really only want it one time just to complete Avocado. Big Wave is just an okay song, at best.

    Right now, it's Who You Are.  Aside from some of the creative tracks on Vitalogy I think I've seen all the songs on the first 5 pearl jam songs live except for Who you Are.

    Finger's crossed.

    It was great when they opened with it in Halifax. Very underrated opener for a song.

    Angel is one I haven't seen yet.
    But I would probably still rather hear Alone or Footsteps again.
  • PJNBPJNB Posts: 13,565
    Parting Ways is still my white whale. Don’t see that one ever getting hit at this point. Missed it by one show in 2016.

    Was Fatal. Got it in Missoula 2018.

    Next up. Strangest Tribe. I believe it was on the set list for Wrigley before the lightning delay. Closest I’ve come.

    Fatal, other side, of the girl, falling down. Would love to hear at least one of these this year.

    Yes, but the key is that it's played in Nashville  :p

    It's currently Who You Are.  I think it's the only full songs off the first 5 albums I've never heard live.  I'm not so worried about some of the experimental interludes off the albums, but it's a real song I've never heard live.  Really hoping to get it on oakland.

    I would of had Sonic Reducer and Oceans up to 2016, but since then I've heard both multiple times.  I guess when the floodgates open, they open.
