It must be hard for him to think of Pearl Jam's best songs.

Stone Gossard has revealed his Top 5 Pearl Jam songs:

"Nothingman"
"Hail, Hail"
"Life Wasted"
"Daughter"
"Better Man"

I was having this discussion with a friend about the shows we have seen and songs we have and have not gotten live so far, and what songs we want to hear. And what songs you would pick.

If it was up to me, and The Band handed me a blank piece of paper and said make the set list for tonight, I’d keep it simple and ask them to:

Play Release as the opener

Play Momma-Son trilogy as main set closer

Play Leash(still haven’t heard it)

Go heavy on Yield.

And do whatever you want besides that!

Are there any live songs you wish they wouldn't change too much? For example, in most of the live recordings of Garden, Mike doesn't do the guitar part over the chorus which comes directly after the solo. For the longest time Garden was my second favorite song off Ten (Black 1st) just for that reason, I loved that simple yet amazing guitar part. I get bummed when hearing live recordings without it.

This is the best quality video I've ever seen of this show. First show with Jack, playing Neil Young's Bridge School Benefit. Uploaded 4 days ago.

1. Not for you

2. Save you

For me, it was “footsteps” on the Jeremy single

My jaw dropped,
I’ve never heard anything that touched me so deeply so fast

That’s when I became absolutely devoted.

Work is yours?

Thoughts?
