I'm sitting here thinking I would give an arm or a leg to hear this song live.

    I have seen a lot of songs. A lot of different songs that most have not been lucky enough to hear.

    I would lose my mind if I heard this song. Then again I would lose it if they played bugs too. I am just weird like that!

    I don't like it. It may be my least favorite song, together with Rival and Evacuation. But I may give a limb for rats :)

    Hmm I'm not a huge fan of this song, but a lot of people I know really like it.

    It's very different :)

    I was thinking though... sorry, but there is practically zero chance it will ever be played again...

    written explicitly for a woman who's out of the picture, with a guy who's been kicked out of the band. Hmmmm... :)

    I really don't understand how so many people love this song. I think it's a stinking pile of crap, by Pearl Jam standards. That said, I wouldn't mind seeing it live, just for the novelty value.

    it will probably never be played live ever again because it was written by Dave A. and he plays guitar on the song when they play it live. It's just him and Ed.

    I know I know... But still, I'd give an arm to hear it live, not only cause I like it a lot, but cause it's just one of the rarest songs for them to play nowadays.

    Then again, I know there's alot more chances that they play... say, no way, than Angel.
    I still hope though.

    I've heard the Dave A. angle... but didn't he pretty much write Go as well?(could be completely wrong about that)

    Great song, my number 1 song to hear live at this point.

    He wrote the main guitar riff for "Go".

    Yep....I found a video of that performance not too awfully long ago, the quality is decent, but it is not one of my favorite songs, but still part of the collection....

    Life would be complete if I heard Alone in concert.

    I've been lucky enough to hear Leash and Rats (been to plenty of Boston shows) and I'm always looking for another.
