    DF is better then a bunch of newer songs with unintelligible lyrics and a lack of rhythm. I think its great. Guess I'm minority that doesn't think it's shit. Gremmie is great too while I'm posting hot takes. I like music that makes u head bob. It doesn't need to be a deep word salad lyrical catastrophe. I like those 2 but simple can be great too
    How can a song lack rhythm?

    Who cares? It’s just a song 
    A shit song at that.
    yep.  us die hards that have gone to dozens and dozens of shows get so obsessed with chasing "rarities" that we forget how bad some of them are.  DF is a fun little song and i'm glad i got to see it at the Gorge years ago, but you're right. its not that good.
    You're confusing me. Is it "a shit song" or "a fun little song" ?
    I’ll try and help with your confusion. A song CAN be “a shit song” and “a fun little song” at the same time.  Think Pour Some Sugar On Me. Or Ice Ice Baby.  Maybe even Yellow Submarine.  Just some examples. I hope that helped with the confusion!?
    You mean like "Olé" ?

    After 40,50 shows I can finally cross off dirty frank.

    it’s one of those those holy grail songs.

    That riff is nasty! Never would I expect to hear it on a EV tour.

    now if I was home and saw the set list yeah I’d be pretty pissed. 

    Lol it doesn't count, you gotta hear it with PJ!
  • Noone can cross dirty frank of his lists  that was at earthlings NY show.

    Pj didn’t play it but Ed did.  If someone wants to scratch it off their list then let them.  Who cares lol.  To each their own.

    If any member of PJ left the band minus Ed, it would still be PJ. They have done it with drummers, so it’s already happened several times.  If Ed left PJ and Scott Stapp stepped in no one would think it’s PJ anymore.

     That effectively means Ed is PJ. Anything Ed plays counts 

    i don’t care either way but in other contexts the consensus seems to be that Ed is PJ. In this context it seems like it’s all of a sudden different

    Personally, if it says Pearl Jam on the ticket, I count it.  If it doesn't, I don't.  Ed is not Pearl Jam.  Pearl Jam is Pearl Jam.

    Did Ed sing the "where's Mike McCready?" line or change it to a member of The Earthlings?

    Been chasing Dirty Frank for more than 50 shows…. Teased in Boston and scratched out at the Vic. Really disappointed this made its return at a non Pearl Jam show and not for Pearl Jam fans.  Would have also been great to get some of our rescheduled dates before a new band tour.  Honestly, not sure what’s going on here. 
    At 200 per, I guarantee the concentration of Pearl Jam fans in that room was higher than most Pearl Jam shows
