    I don't get it when people say that Radio or MTV killed a song. I understand what you mean, but do you guys really listen to the radio and watch MTV? I can't remember the last time I did either one.

    No. And I have never used the radio as a music outlet but in the 90's it was unavoidable to a certain extent. You couldn't get away from hit songs. Plus people walking around with designer flannel shirts and corduroy jackets. Ugh. It was all ruining "my band". And then fucking meatheads coming up to me "you like Pearl jam, dude I love Jeremy!" Pretty much all the stuff they talk about in PJ20 almost made me wanna quit listening to PJ. Thankfully I figured out pretty early to not give a fuck and like what I like and not worry what anyone else thinks.

    Blood and Spin the Black Circle. I know these are definitely fan favorites, but I can't bear to listen to them!

    I did in the 90's before Al Gore invented the internet.

    Betterman - Great song ruined by radio play. I do enjoy it live because of the awesome jam and usually some Ed improv. Still, there's a hundred PJ songs I'd rather hear than this one.

    yes, I actually enjoyed it this tour because of the Jumpin' Jack Flash tag.

    I actually have gotten so tired of Even Flow, when deciding which boots to get, if it doesn't have Even Flow I will get it, because so many boots I get have it, I just like being able to have a break from it, at least it is long enough if I need to go to the restroom, I am back before the next song starts

    Yellow Ledbetter - worst fucking song ever - did I mention I hate it.
    Black - the definition of beating a dead horse, dial it back it's not that good of a song.
    Sirens - just fucking awful
    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    Crazy Mary and Last Kiss I could do without as well.

    1st 5 albums were some of the best music ever released by any band.

    And the reason for 21000 posts?

    "sleight of hand" is just terrible. "pendulum" as an opener as become really boring. I'm not into mike's cover of "eruption" and I never just felt the love for "sad".
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    -Yellow Ledbetter... just skip this and let Mike go straight to the national anthem. I don't need to hear Ed repeat the word "wayside" 100 fucking times at the end of every show.
    -Marker in the Sand (though I do want to hear it live, once, so I can complete Avocado)
    -The End
    -Sirens

    Ah, you do know that speedy and I are friends right? And since you post a lot on the forums, I'm assuming you've seen speedys very own "I don't give a rats ass" posts before? No?
