    I'll gladly hold one.

    Or how about some Doors- we all know that Ed can sing them like no other (other than Jim of course)

    just go see Radiohead.

    I'm not against covers I'd just rather hear new material.

    Some Clash covers would be great.

    I'd love to hear PJ cover a Radiohead song, especially Lucky.

    I'm seeing Radiohead in August, too. :)

    Just give Rockin in the beat world, CrotchyMary, Last Kiss, and the who a break. Bring back baba in like 5 years. That would make it special again.

    Haha, I love Radiohead and want them to play their songs, but I don't think this is a good fit for Pearl Jam.

    I respect your opinion but you made it complete trash by contradicting yourself.

    I know they're not technically "covers" as they are PJ related but I'd love to hear them do something by Three Fish (Song of a Dead Girl) or Mad Season (River Of Deceit or Long Gone Day). They've done Crown Of Thorns and Hunger Strike enough times so how about somethng from the side-projects?

    So true.

    Yes!!! Let Mike tack a hack at River of Deceit after all these years. That would be unreal.

    LOL - I think I passed out during that song at Phish show in Hartford in 2000. Soooo long.

    hehehe I know, that was kinda toungue in cheek.... It would be impossible for Pearl Jam to cover any radiohead in my opinion. They are so comletely different in terms of each band's musical abilities and styles that Pearl Jam covering Radiohead would be impossible, especially anything after The Bends

    Pablo Honey-era could be done by the band. I would like to hear them play "Anyone Can Play Guitar". That would be awesome!

    I still think Social D - Don't Drag Me Down would be a good cover.

    As would some Drive By Truckers - Ronnie & Neil, or even better Let There Be Rock!

    They've kind of done it before, but Angie by the Stones, or Eddie doing Wild Horses by himself would be pretty sweet. I always thought it would be interesting to see the bands take on a Zeppelin song, not sure if Eddie could sing it, but if that guy from Godsmack can do it, I bet Eddie could do it 100x better.
    32 shows and counting...

    Incredibly spoiled.....just try seeing them once a year, instead of 4 or 5 times. Then you might just enjoy the shows much more.

    Think a newbie would say those songs you mentioned aren't special?

    Another version of Fool In The Rain wouldn't be so bad....

    No Seriously I think they'd do an awesome version of "If you tolerate this...." by Manic Street Preachers

    I always thought they could cover Lynyrd Skynyrd pretty good. "Simple Man" comes to mind, especially with Boom. I can see Mike, Stone and Boom swapping solos and tearing it up. Great encore song.

    Gov't Mule does a great 9:00 minute version of it.

    I still think Mad Season's Wake Up would work great as a Daughter tag.

    I'd love to hear the full band rocking out to Neil's Powderfinger, or Like a Hurricane.
