    I think Jimmy did that for many bands. Pearl Jam was on Pink Floyd week.

    it was an awkward idea to begin with.
    Follow-thru sounds strange when you say it plain:

    Dierks Bentley playing Alive
    Fleet Foxes singer (solo) playing Corduroy
    Cornell with the Avett Bros

    that was during his late night show. He's doing the tonight show now. I don't think he's done it there

    I appreciated the different covers but I couldn't stomach the Fleet Foxes cover of Corduroy. The anger and emotion that songs needs to be performed with fell completely flat.

    They made it their own - which is essential for a cover IMO.

    The Cornell "Footsteps" was the lasting piece of music that came from that week for me.. Very cool interpretation of the song in my opinion.. Especially the fact that he wrote and sang on the same piece of music for "Times of Trouble" almost simultaneously in 1990.

    P.S. His Harmonica playing reminded me of why Ed should not play the harmonica on Fiotsteps! Lol

    Chris was great on the Harmonica!

    I always preferred the earlier versions before Ed started playing Harmonica.. Just my opinion..

    That week got me back into Pearl Jam after a very long hiatus. The Avett Brothers w/Cornell is what originally drew me in.
    I'm through with screaming

    Loved PJ week on Fallon! Avett with CC was really cool. I actually liked the Fleet Foxes cover of Corduroy. I always enjoy a heartfelt cover of one of my favorite bands. Even if its not the best or someone I don't care for. Deirks Bently for example...I couldn't care less about him but enjoyed watching him jam Alive w/ Mike. Its just cool to see other artists get excited about PJ.
