Reverend Rubicon rated his top 20 LIVE songs, here they are:
http://www.reverendrubicon.com/2012/04/rub...best-of_11.html


I remember the first time I heard Live. They absolutely blew me away with the depth of their lyrics, the unmistakable vocals of Ed Kowalczyk, and the unique arrangements that was different than any other band of the early to mid-90s.


The band's career has lasted well into the 2000s and they continue to pump out memorable jams. While Pearl Jam, Nirvana, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers garnered most of the attention of the era, their Mental Jewelry quietly became a must have for music lovers.


Their follow up release, Throwing Copper, provided the band with their first sustainable hits and carved out their permanent place in music lore.


Like when I put together my "Best of Pearl Jam" list, I had to really make some tough calls to pare it down to twenty. Here it is (Some songs may have explicit lyrics):


20. We Deal In Dreams

19. Run To The Water

18. Overcome

17. 10000 Years (Peace Is Now)

16. Pillar of Davidson

15. The Dolphin's Cry

14. Beauty of Grey

13. Freaks

12. Take My Anthem

11. Heaven

10. Rattlesnake

9. Selling The Drama

8. Pain Lies On The Riverside

7. Good Pain

6. Lakini's Juice

5. Turn My Head

4. Mirror Song

3. Lightning Crashes

2. I Alone

1. Operation Spirit


Songs that just missed:


Bonus Track 1. Graze

Bonus Track 2. Brothers Unaware

So do you follow the good reverend, SJN?
I see he says he uses satire, sarcasm, and general common sense to expose leftist ideas and keep the right pure.
He should have included slapstick humor in that description, because it's laughable to say keep the right pure, as if they were actually pure.

who is rev rubicon? I've never heard of this person.

and I shook Sarah Palin's hand. (she's a very nice lady). She has super soft hands.

I did not discuss anything with her, so I cannot speak to her qualifications as vice-POTUS. also, her husband smells amazing.

(I think we all know that all the jokes about her have already been made... I'm trying to avoid negativity.)

but really, who's Rev Rubicon? I did a 3 second google search, and all I saw was his web site, which was not appealing to my eyes so I read nothing.

Ah geez

Not really sure who he is, DQ. I never got past keeping the right pure.
Perhaps SJN will come back and enlighten us
