    Well, the website here did say something new, but changes have also been made at the last minute before...

    So, I guess we won't know until tonight what they'll play. :geek:

    I've got to assume this isn't accurate.

    Look at it this way.

    They are making a new album set to be released sometime this year - this we know for sure. We know they've played the new songs before, as we've all heard the shitty quality from the Target filming....They are playing some decent festivals and they have lined up some shows this summer with pretty much 100% assumptions there will more shows added...Why would they come out and play something from Ten? Everyone alive has heard Ten - it's one of the biggest albums of all time. I think they just don't really know what to put there so they put that, I would be willing to bet a large sum of money that they will NOT play something from Ten.

    I'm surprised it took until the second page for someone to finally say this. Obviously, the Tonight Show website is wrong. Obviously, they are confused and think Ten is the "upcoming album."

    I mean, it couldn't be more obvious. They aren't gonna play Even Flow ... and they sure as FUCK aren't going to play Brother.

    Ok ok.. I think we get both? one oldie and two newies? so, as you said, people would go "oh, that's Pearl Jam" and then "wow, they're still ticking!"

    Maybe this is just so people recognize them and make the connection

    That would make sense if they did that...if I were to consider the marketing method of getting out to the larger audience who most likely to know only the old history of the band, then I'd do this to make the connection.

    You know how a lot of people introduce themselves in the beginning by briefly explaining their history to establish credibility and/or recognition before introducing a new concept or product.

    That said, I am all for it because hopefully that will reduce the common statements: "They're still together?", "They're still alive?", "I didn't know they were still playing music..." and so on.

    Ah, who knows...but I really hope they will play new songs and yes things do change for whatever reasons. I hope in this case, they stuck to their original plan of playing new songs! Yes, at least one new song!

    So looking forward to tonight!!! :mrgreen:

    Chill people, they will play new songs. I bet the guy that made that episode guide just took the latest release and put it there. On thursday the John Mayer Trio is the musical guest and I doubt they'll play something off of a 4 years old live album. "Try" is just the latest (and only) release under the name "John Mayer Trio" and thats why it is displayed there. And even if the guy knew PJ is going to play new songs, what should he put there? A big question mark or what?

    This is pretty much what I was going to say. There's no cover art or title for the new album yet. Keep in mind that "Pearl Jam will perform songs from their upcoming studio album" was in the press release put out by NBC.

    I believe we will hear a new song or two as that is what is being reported here on pearljam.com There was never any mention of them playing songs from Ten.

    If i was a betting man, and if its true that we are going to get 2 songs, then my guess would be 1 old and 1 new.

    First song being the new single, likely theone filmed the other day.

    Second song being something from the Ten era, maybe even a Conan request.

    There's no way they are playing an old song. No way. They've never played old songs on TV appearances before. We're going to hear a couple new songs. I will bet every penny I own on it.

    nah, i wouldn't think so. if their new songs aren't ready by now, then we won't be seeing an album for another 12 months..

    do you want a "zing" for that? was that what you were after there?

    it was a pretty lackluster performance, but what the hell?

    It's funny how people can hear a leaked copy of a song, the sound quality of which makes it sound like it was recorded in some guy's asshole, and we can tell the song isn't "ready for primetime?"

    WTF?

    It would sound fine if properly recorded ... which none of the leaked copies were.

    It will never be a hit. Nothing Pearl Jam produces from here on out will be a hit. That's just the way it is.

    I'd be surprised if there was more than one song on the broadcast. Too much going on
    for the first show and Ferrell will probably get two segments. I thought we heard earlier
    that the second song would be a web exclusive?

    As for Brother, that's a "new" song to most casual listeners. And if you look at how it's
    charted there's nothing embarrassing about playing it tonight.

    I'm just going to sit back and enjoy me some PJ, no matter what they play.
