Pearl Jam Karaoke!

PittsburghPJ

So, a couple of my friends and I are hanging out at the bar last night, and they have karaoke every Thursday. One of my drunk friends decides out of nowhere he's going to sing Small Town, which caught me completely off guard, since he is not really a Pearl Jam fan. I said if we was going to sing Pearl Jam I'd do it, too, but let's pick a different song, because as much as I enjoy it, Elderly Woman Behind The Counter in a Small Town is not the ideal drunk college bar karaoke song. Eventually we did Betterman, which was pretty good. I did the harmonies on the final refrain. I'm sure it was...excellent. :?

Anyway, has anyone else ever done this? What's the best PJ song to karaoke to?

I often ponder what it would be like to open up a karaoke bar that only did certain rock bands. And my list of bands would go something like this:
Pearl Jam (obviously)
Soundgarden
AIC
Nirvana
Ramones
Bad religion
MMJ
KOL
U2
Madonna(well you gotta get your freak on at some point :P)
Incubus
Beasties
Beatles
Eagles
Tom Petty
Pretenders
Pennywise
Sublime
311
Rage
Metallica
Sabbath

Yes, sir. Were you there as well? You may have caught an excellent rendition of "Africa" by Toto, as well

almost every bar around here has karaoke, the only problem is they don't have much of a selection... there is one place that has a few more than the others, but it's usually almost always a country crowd there, always fun to do though...

Refer to the same thread I started a few weeks ago, same title as this thread, if you want you can download Pearl Jam karaoke.
Alive sounds wrong in parts but is okay.
