these are songs that seem quite similar, you usually don't see both played at the same show

red mosquito/half full

mankind/supersonic

god's dice/hail, hail/all night

breakerfall/gonna see my friend (heavily-Who-influenced album and show openers)

    Supersonic lands somewhere between Mankind, Spin the Black Circle, and U

    ...I don't think it is basically the same as any of those though.

    red mosquito/half full are structured pretty similar though...also some time signature and roughly the same tempo.

    yeah, i forgot those two short catchy ass little tunes...two of my favorites, don't know why they don't get played more often, they are probably guilty of being "too catchy"

    i also forgot about the intros to wishlist and unthought known, which someone pointed out....and love boat captain would be a third one to throw in there

    Amidst crowd-noise at a show, the beginnings of Save You, Spin The Black Circle, and Brain Of J could sound sorta similar.

    Severed Hand an Porch

    I don't agree with Mankind & Supersonic and I DEFINITELY don't agree with God's Dice and All Night! I mean: WHAT?! That's an awesome song vs. a shit song that have absolutely nothing in common :twisted:

    Porch and Severed Hand

    Red Mosquito and Half Full....Heard 1/2 full 2x at shows and it fooled me for a bit both times

    The beginnings of animal and why go always struck me as similar, though I would never confuse them.

    Immortality and Indifference have the same chord progression for their verses if I remeber correctly.. so I guess they are similar..

    I have friends and family who think all pearl jam songs "sound" the same..
    I'm gone ..Long gone..This time I'm letting go of it all...So long...Cause this time I'm gone
