Brother

Just was listening to this great tune and this would fit in one of there concerts either as an opener (Maybe Ed doesn't even come out till the end of the song) or a good one to play right after one of the encores.

Do you all agree?

Mike would certainly captivate us all by playing that one.
CARPE DIEM!!

    Only if its the one with the vocals. I think it would work as a good first encore.

    Speaking of the short Mad Season catalog, besides River of Deciet, I would love a PJ cover of either Lifeless Dead or I Don't Know Anything. Those are probably the best songs on that album.

    I doubt they'll play Brother. Stone doesn't like his riff, and Ed doesn't like his lyrics.

    Yeah, that sucks too. I think its a damn fine song, and they consider it a throwaway. Just a testament to how damn good this band is.

    I would love hearing brother anytime, and it would be even cooler if Mike did a 20 minute guitar solo at the end of it. :D

    Me too. Obviously I would love the complete original version. I am not too crazy about the instrumental, although if I knew that was the only way they would play it. I think it would be cool if Mike just ripped into it to close out Yellow Ledbetter. I'd prefer if they put YL on hiatus or maybe play YL during different parts of a set. Just to change things up. Wishful thinking.

    Im probably just a spoiled brat because Ive been to so many shows. I love the band, they owe me nothing. If anything, I owe them for being such a great and positive force in my life. I love Pearl Jam!!!!!!!!!!! My love for them is still fucking growing after 16 plus amazing years of devotion. Sorry guys, I have a buzz. "Out of my mind ...out of my mind...
    All of the time...
    Wish you could help me mister...
    Wish you could lift me up... LOL

    I'm getting all nostalgic and excited. Im just rambling. "Fuck me in the brain!!!"

    "Aah, fuck it, I'm just gonna go home, turn on the fuckin' TV...
    Watch the nightly news and drink a beer...
    Like I could even change the world, yeah right..."

    I don't understand...but I like where you're coming from.

    they should get over it and play Brother proper (with lyrics and the whole thing)
