    I know it's 'cool' to like all the unknown/not popular tracks, but they're not going to put that many in one show. 

    There was quite a bit of Vitalogy/Yield/No Code it seems in the first 2 shows.  Thinking we might get more Ten/Vs. (release, animal, oceans, garden, Go, rearview mirrror)

    A touch patronizing...

    I like the rarer stuff for any number of reasons - sometimes I simply like the rarer songs more - maybe more complex, esoteric, etc. musically or lyrically, I've heard the popular songs a ton live (not to mention everywhere else for a long, long, long long time), and the band tends to get more into the rarer stuff probably for the same reasons - how many times would you want to play Alive? Of course they aren't going to play only rare songs, but I can always ask.

    KNOW MY RIGHTS (sorry, I'm sure I've worn that out by now)

    I thought the same lol.  What a weird thought and comment.  I imagine people like what they like, because they... like it.  Otherwise if you're claiming to like something just to be "cool", then that's not genuine at all.  Seems very "hipster-ish".  lol

    Also, this is a Pearl Jam fan forum, so of course most people here will like the "unknown / not popular" tracks, as most people here love the band and have explored the song catalog in great depth.

    I would never say it out loud, it was all just a touch low energy (unfortunately, I could hear Trump's voice as I typed that). 

    The band gives back what the crowd gives them.  Two-way street.  I'm a Portlander and I'm sometimes ashamed at how quiet and lame our crowds can be.  Not just for PJ, but for every band I see here. So, hopefully WE BRING IT this time!

    Please know you (PJ) have been a through-line in my life, in so many ways the soundtrack to my life. I agree with Morrison that "music inflames temperament" and you guys set fire to mine a long time ago...

    So no disrespect with all the BS I've been posting - just trying to get your attention the only way I can

    :lol:  Was just calling the logic how I see it.  In these fan forums, I assume that people genuinely love the music.  I've never been to Portland, but your comment leads me to believe that it may be similar to Austin, where the motto is "keep it weird".  I'd love to visit Portland, I hear the city is beautiful.

    Back to MY RIGHTS

    The gist of MY RIGHTS is LITTLE WING, NO JEREMY, OF THE EARTH, and LOW LIGHT. These are MY CORE RIGHTS, all other songs stipulated are also MY RIGHTS, but can be considered SECONDARY RIGHTS. These are still MY RIGHTS, but by RIGHT, I have decreased their importance temporarily in order to focus more exclusively on MY CORE RIGHTS, which are of course MY RIGHTS.
