Obviously EV is not Pearl Jam BUT....

Cheating on your own stats is really lame.

Separate lists, different experiences. I've previously heard Eddie perform Sleeping By Myself a few times but it didn't come off my Pearl Jam list until this past weekend at Fenway. Same thing with Man Of The Hour a few years ago.

Totally agree. Two different beasts. Any songs I've heard at an EV solo that I haven't seen at a PJ show don't go towards my 'songs heard' count for PJ.

Speaking of EV solo, definitely would love another tour soon. Such a special experience. Realizing now it's been 5 years since my only two Eddie solo shows--too long!

when ed performs songs solo that he wrote I count it. I know some of you hate to admit it but without ed there's no pearl jam. so if the leader of pearl jam performs it solo, it counts.

slightofjeff

If it's a song that Ed would reasonably play by himself even at a full PJ show, I say you can count it. Hell, even if not. I'm counting Around the Bend from an Ed solo show on my list and there's nothing any of you can do about it.

It's like comparing peaches to Apple's.

How you gonna compare an acoustic solo version of parting ways to it being with the full band?

Or any song for that matter.

I know some of you are trying to get songs checked off your list but it's night and day people.

Nigh and day.

Foriginal Sin

I have like 5 of the 9 versions of this from 2003 on a cd somewhere, got it off one of the fan sites

At what point do you say to yourself I heard EV perform 'XYZ' song at a solo show and should cross it from my list because well....??
-Arc
-Hard Sun
-Sometimes

For me.

Hard Sun shouldn't matter, cover song to begin with

I'm not a song chaser. I just have a list just for interest's sake. I do it with a couple other of my favourite bands too.

what if ed comes out preset and plays Man of the Hour on his own? that wouldn't count to you?

Night & Day, spot on.

Can't Keep is not the same song to me without the drum intro, McCready's slick guitar wail or the bassline.

It's nice to hear Ed play a stripped down solo version, but until I hear PJ play it as a band, I don't feel like I've heard the original version as it 'should be played'.

Well, technically, the solo uke version is the original version. Ed played two shows in 2002 out west where he debuted several Ukulele Songs as well as Thumbing My Way. He played I Am Mine as well but I think it's official debut was full band at a Bridge School Show.

If that's the case, then I'll stand corrected. I came to know the riot act version first.

I count them all

JimmyV

I can see how certain songs would be tempting to cross off, especially the acoustic stuff. These lists are all just personal stats anyway so to each their own. For me though...two separate lists.

LC

Around the Bend is the biggest one I could cross off.

darthvedder

1. EV is Pearl Jam more so than ever. Lightning Bolt was mostly an EV solo record.
2. If an EV solo performance completes a live album for you, say I'm Open and No Code, I say count it.

It's cool, man. You should seek out those Ed shows from early 2002. It's where he did Sleepless Nights with Beck. All Tonmorow's Parties is what the show was called I think.

The one with Beck and Mike Ness was the Concert For Artists' Rights at the Wiltern on 2/26/02. All Tomorrow's Parties came a couple weeks later on the UCLA campus.
