It was originally just an improv I believe. Only done twice on the '94 tour. Then in 2009, a fan - a wealthy one apparently - offered to donate an undisclosed sum of money to charity if Pearl Jam would play it. And they obliged. Pretty cool.

Yep I reckon you're right, it's on the Not For You single. :geek:

It's a song I never really thought of ever possibly hearing. Just one of those obscure things. When I heard them start kicking into that in Philly, I almost crapped myself. Couldn't stop grinning.
Now, every time I hear the opening bars kick in, I get this huge dopey grin on my face. Love that tune!
It is very cool on the Philly boot(which I'm LOVING btw ) & extra cool about the rich dude donating $$. Oh so many cool songs so little time to devote to listening to them!

I was lucky enough to hear this when they played it in Springfield, MA back in 94...That nights was my favorite of the three versions. There is a boot of that show floating around, definately worth checking out. Was nice to see this gem come back.

Out of my mind...out of my mind...
All of the time...
Wish you could help me mister...
Wish you could lift me up...
Wish you could pack my parachute mister...
Wish you could pull me up.
The winds have change, I'm stuck beneath the rain...
I wish you could help me up...
Out of my mind...out of my mind...
Once inside, I'm out of my mind...
Out of my mind...out of my mind...
Once inside, I'm out of my mind...
Wish you could help me, give me a pill...
Just a little drink that I could swill.
A little something, anything, anything, I'll try all...
I ain't got nowhere to go from here.
I'm just about this far
From drowning in my very own tears.
Out of my mind...out of my mind...
Once inside, I'm out of my mind...
Out of my mind...out of my mind...
I don't feel so high...
out of my mind...
Where do I go? Where do I stay?
I got no place to lay in the hay.
Where do I go to soothe my head?
Guess I'll turn on music instead.
Where do I see? Where do I shine?
No one wants to take my mind.
Where do I go? How do I feel?
Guess I'll waste away in here...
Out of my mind...out of my mind....
Out of my mind every single time...
I'm alive

a few of the words on the boot are hard to deciphere... thanks making it clear. it's kind of hard to sing a PJ song w/ autority when you're not quite sure if you got the right words.
for sum reason... this particular PJ song... makes me feel really good about who i am. makes me think about how grateful i am compared to those w/ an ongoing alcohol/pill/chemical addiction that they can't overcome. i'm definately still... out of my mind... but in good ways... these days. life is good!

The honest to god real reason I think it was played at Fenway! Thanks man!
Wish it could have been Fenway '16 but the fact that they played it is awesome. If I was there I would have been so freaking happy. Love the song. So jealous. Lucky bunch of Fenway fans!!!
