  • If you're a new listener then I should suggest that you start with the same songs that most of us here started with. Ten. When I started listening to PJ that's all there was and I was hooked for life after hearing Once.

    I have a couple friends joining me for shows for their first time in April and I have them listening to Rearviewmirror and Lightning Bolt, that should get them ready for about 80% of what they will hear at any given show.
