    i wouldn't put it by them - part of the reason pearl jam has such a prowess in their live shows is they're ALL different.

    I agree with most of what you said. I'd rather see Crazy Mary and RVM shortened and a couple of songs from the forgotten album "No Code" played instead of the extended jam sessions.

    I don't sit down and would never do that, but when you see multiple shows on a tour - though slightly different each time the jams on RVM and Crazy Mary get a little boring and drawn out.

    But as long as the guys in the band enjoy it - who am I to complain.

    I'm not one for extended jams on songs I've seen various times (RVM, Daughter), but that jam between Mike and Boom during Crazy Mary last year in Cincy is tops in my book.

    Same here, after hearing the song on the album, I thought for sure this would become an extended jam song, esp. because it has a similar feel to Porch.



    It does seem like they haul ass thru it quite a bit...

    I agree with Severed Hand being played too fast. Another one they play too fast is Given to Fly - I love the studio version so much, and the live version always seems rushed to me. I'd like it if they could slow these down, just a little bit, AND extend them a little bit . . .

    The middle of PresentTense definitely needs a longer and maybe even a additional new middle part jam. That song is epic. Make it that way.

    RVM & Porch extended versions is what makes a PJ show.. You gotta love that side to it and to say you sit down during these parts is crazy! I'm shocked you sit down at all it's a rock gig!
    I'm just flying around the other side of the world to say I love you

    Sha la la la i'm in love with a jersey girl

    I love you forever and forever :)

    I love rvm's noise jam. One of the highlights of a show for me. Porch would be ok, if the breakdown in the middle wasn't used as preachy lecture time.

    This is so off topic but I caught David Gilmour solo the last time he was in town (Chicago), and he played the ENTIRE version of Echoes (with lasers and all!). Other than a PJ show, it was the best performance I've ever seen in my life...I still get the chills thinking about it!

    i agree to the extent that this stuff is a little "old hat", i would love some shows with no Ten songs,
    no daughter, no coudroy, no RVM, or at least some new jams

    I enjoyed my PJ shows better, but I dunno if there is actually a PJ show that was better than those Gilmour shows. Let's be honest..... Those performances of Echoes are probably cooler than anything PJ has ever done live :D

    i definatly think daughter and better man could do with a break, think about it if they dont play them for a few years and people start salvating over them again they will become epic

    I would love the hear longer versions of OCEANS, GO and ANIMAL! I think there would be a lot of space for spectacular riffs and Eddies solo intermezzos!
