I was at my guitar lesson last night and my instructor showed me this awesome website. It is http://www.guitarbackingtrack.com
You can look for almost any band, you click on the song you want and your the guitar player for that song. There is a drum beat, a bass line and if the band has 2 guitar players then you're the lead player. There is no vocals, just music. There are about 13 Pearl Jam songs on there. It's great for improvising and learning the timing of the song. Have a look and let me know what you think!

    I've used it before. Good resource, but the only annoying this is sometimes the rhythm melody is played on electric piano, which doesn't really sound right with a lot of songs.
    If idle hands are the devil's workshop, he must not be very productive.

    Where do you get Guitar Pro for free???
    I can't read many of the newer transcriptions because I have an older bootleg version (Guitar Pro 5).

    i.e. the intro to Immortality

    pretty cool tool however
