If you want Sometimes, have it. I’ll take Hail Hail. There’s zero chance anyone else is getting Brain Of J although there’s no major in depth conversation to be had about it, basically a gush festHi, I host a Pearl Jam Podcast. We go back to some of the classic shows in their history and break down the entire setlist front to back. From historic perspective, to performances, to setlist construction, to fan stories. We do our best to capture the magic that is their live act and help you relive those memories, or if you weren't there, maybe turn you on to a show you've never heard before.
Live On 4 Legs can be found on Apple Podcast, Spotify and any other major podcast platform. But please support our website and check out the episodes archived there. Oh, and the Concertpedia as well (for you Five Horizons and Two Feet Thick fans, we've picked up where they've left off)

Always took the Muhammed reference to be directed at Ali and his liking for this particular poem (videos below)Branden said:The Better Band Podcast - Not For You (S3.Ep3)
Our guest this episode, Kevin Lessard, joins us for a look at Pearl Jam’s Gen X disaffected youth anthem “Not For You,” capitalism, and German pop music…
Truth
This poem, a favorite of Ali's, is attributed to Inayat Khan, an early 20th Century founder of the Sufi Order.
TRUTH
The face of truth is open,
The eyes of truth are bright,
The lips of truth are ever closed,
The head of truth is upright.
The breast of truth stands forward,
The gaze of truth is straight,
Truth has neither fear nor doubt,
Truth has patience to wait.
The words of truth are touching,
The voice of truth is deep,
The law of truth is simple:
All that you sow you reap.
The soul of truth is flaming,
The heart of truth is warm,
The mind of truth is clear,
And firm through rain or storm.
Facts are but its shadows,
Truth stands above all sin;
Great be the battle in life,
Truth in the end shall win.
The image of truth is Christ, (posters note, Ali changes the reference to Muhammed in at least one of his readings on TV)
Wisdom's message its rod;
Sign of truth is the cross,
Soul of truth is God.
Life of truth is eternal,
Immortal is its past,
Power of truth will endure,
Truth shall hold to the last.https://www.cleveland.com/sports/2016/06/the_poetry_of_muhammad_ali_in.html

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVMdVkONn4U (changes the religious references here)
His eminence has yet to show.

Is there going to be a Tremor Christ episode?
I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.0 -
Yes. There have just been some scheduling conflicts, so I wasn't able to get it recorded in time to place it between Not For You & Nothingman... There's also going to be some more skipping around the tracks before we're done with the album, but don't worry, I'm getting them all in there.cdthomas1981 said:Is there going to be a Tremor Christ episode?The Better Band Podcast: BetterBandPod.com
