What a phenomenal post. It inspires me to build off it SAYING...
What's your FAVORITE PEARL JAM song to jam on?
I think mine is either Immortality or Yellow Ledbetter.

Crown of Thorns is awesome. I love playing that song.
As for favorite PJ song to jam on? Porch is awesome. Yellow Ledbetter too, but I gotta say Alive. I love trying to improvise my own solo.
I try to do that too (improvise) and Pearl Jam has helped me a LOT with it...as much as I love playing my own stuff more than anything else (never thought I would say that), PJ helps me sharpen my technique and reminds me of the basics.

Right now, I'm loving Light Years (can't get it out of my head since Camden 1), but my all time fav has to be I got Shit. If you've got some stress to shed, crank it to 11 and play that...
Crown of Thorns is so easy yet so fun. For anyone who doesn't know it...

That second 'ending' comes in every couple measures during the verse and in the chorus the first time Ed says "leaves me Alone". It kinda flows with those lyrics.

A lot of Love Bone songs are fun to play. You just have to block out the lyrics!
Stone had freaking awesome parts in that band. I can honestly say i wouldn't have gotten so heavily into PJ if i didn't have Love Bone tracks to fill that void in between Ten and Vs.
Fave PJ songs to play at the moment: anything off Vitalogy. Yield is my normal fave for guitar-oke, but No Code when i feel "expressive". (yes, you are supposed to laugh at that)
