    I heard a Brad song in a grocery store once.

    I worked at Lowes for a long time and Buttercup was on regular rotation for a few years.

    I don't really hear PJ songs anywhere.

    But once I was at a restaurant in MD and they played a few live songs. Only ones I can remember are Black and Yellow Ledbetter.

    Walking in a small alley behind an apartment in Sevilla, Spain. Heard someone playing alive through the window. Second in a small tourist town in Italy a guy was playing Eddie Vedder songs acoustic on a guitar for spare change.

    Always cracks me up given the half glass empty guys speak so badly about the song and LB having so many b sides. "Worst song on LB" bs. I guess CBS didn't feel that way to play in one of their most successful shows of the new millenium

    I heard "Animal" playing in the service shop at a local Ford dealership a month ago. The guy in the underground oil change bay was singing along.

    I was in the Cotton Bowl in Dallas last month watching my Longhorns lose to OU when they had some stupid "Can You Name This Tune?" promo on the video screen during a timeout. The usual "This band of grunge rock pioneers from Seattle had a hit with this song..." was given while Alive played in the background.

    I don't see that cracking someone up... TV-shows/movies play bad music all the time.

    U at a Sky Zone trampoline park on LA. In between Katy Perry and another pop song. I was very confused why a deep PJ bside would be on the playlist

    as for tv placement: Supersonic on Parenthood
    “I know this song so well, I can smoke a cigarette, have a drink, brush my teeth, take a shit, and mow the lawn while singing it. But I'll only be doing a couple of those things during this version.”

  • Not really odd ... but unexpected ... On a trip to Italy, I was sitting with my family at a lake, enjoying the awesome view and the tranquility of the place. Even my children were silent. All of a sudden, I hear Pearl Jam! Unthought known. A little bit further, there was a young man, listening to Pearl Jam. Me happy. Husband and children: oh my god, do we really have to listen to Pearl Jam all the way up here too???

    I once heard Last kiss at a swingers club (I was just about to leave).
