    Thumbing My Way or I am Mine.

    Riot Act was the first PJ album I ever got-it remains among my very favorites, not only because I love Thumbing and I am Mine, but because it has so many other gems on it! :thumbup:

    easily the most underrated song not just from the album but from the band.

    not my favorite PJ album, but i will never forget the release date.

    was in college and it was POURING like all hell in NYC, and i had like 30 minutes to drive to a tower records in between classes to pick it up. the rain caused several accidents on the road, and flat out ran out of time. no way was i making it back to campus in time.

    ditched class, smoked a joint, and spun riot act 8-)

    if anybody out there is looking for a GREAT show from that tour, check out 7-1-03 d.c. (really va). there was a traffic jam, so they started off slow & kept goin'. they played why go for the 1st time since 95, 7 riot act songs (i think), some from binaural, know your rights, but they opened with can't keep..there was a k9 unit there, though. i was hoping that they would play bu$hleaguer, but that was probably the reason for the popo..it was truly an unforgettable, classic show.

    My favorite album!

    If their was ever a split amongst Pearl Jam fans, it would be Riot Act fans versus NON-Riot Act fans...we would be outnumbered 9 to 1 but we would still kick some major butt!

    It's a disease and they're all GREEN!

    All or none is as good as anything they have ever done.
    Cant keep, save you, cropduster, 1/2 full, I am mine-all great songs.

    I happen to really like LBC, but I cant break the association between that song and Issac the bartendter, julie, gopher and the doc.

    I've always had a soft spot for Thumbing My Way.
    The whole album is great, one of my favorites.

    For a long time it was I Am Mine but recently it has become Thumbing My Way.
