    Mother takes the cake for me.  It was a surprise performance when aired on Fallon.  Like PJ’s version over PF with EV’s deep vocals.  Gossard’s acoustic and McCready’s solo were highlights. It’s in my top 5 PJ songs I like hearing live.  Another topic but sure would like to hear PJ cover LZ’s Babe I’m Gonna Leave You.

    I agree this. Apart from the small lyrical flub, Ed sounds wonderful and this is how I like his voice best. He doesn't seem to use the lower register as much anymore which makes me sad. He sounds perfect here.

    That performance of All Night is absolutely killer. The band are super tight, sounds almost the same as the studio version. Ed's vocals on point, too.

    Top 3 would be Hail Hail, and then the two I just mentioned.

    Yes, much live for that Grievance performance. One of the band’s most underrated songs.

    SNL, Letterman, Fallon, MTV etc...
    Is there a list of all PJ’s TV performances (at least American)? Cronological preferably. 
    And he still gives his love,
    he just gives it away...

    This is underrated imo and pretty fun.

    But VH1 Rock Honors has my vote.

    I love Present Tense at the Ed Sullivan Theater in 2006.
    I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.

    It begins and ends with Animal and RITFW with Neil at the 1993 VMAs.  Everything else is window dressing.
    His eminence has yet to show.

    I'll be the first to say it...Life Wasted from Letterman in 2006.

    This is undeniably correct. This thread is clearly about second place.
