Nightswimming by REM...would be a good cover for Ed to do solo or with just Boom
It's nice to be nice to the nice.

This is a long shot, and I don't know if they might have played it (as Pearl Jam) already?
But I'd love to hear Pearl Jam do Neil Young's "I'm The Ocean". It's amazing they way they (almost all of them) play it with Neil so they couldn't fail...

'heroes' by david bowie - PJ would make that SUCH a hymn live
'shot by both sides' by magazine - another punk rock nugget that would suit them
'the seeker' by the who (if they haven't covered that already sometime in the past)

They have done The Seeker ... I'm thinking only once, just because the bootleg I have of it is terrible quality, and it's the best I could find.

Pearl Jam should cover this! :D

REM-Life And How To Live It


Burn bright through the night, two pockets lead the way
To doors to go between the wall was raised today
To doors remain before your others and your own
Keep these books well stocked away and take your happy home


My carpenter’s out and running about, talking to the street
My pockets are out and running about
Barking in the street to tell what I have hidden there


Burn bright through the night, two pockets lead the way
Two doors to go between the wall was raised today
Raise the walls and shout its flaws, a carpenter should rest
So that when you tire of one side the other serves you best


My carpenter’s out and running about, talking to the street
My pockets are out and running about
Barking in the street to tell what I have hidden there

The hills ringing hear the words in time
Listen to the holler, listen to my walls within my tongue
Can’t you see you made my ears go tin?
The air quicken tension building inference suddenly
Life and how to live it


Raise the walls and shout its flaws, a carpenter should rest
So that when you tire of one side the other serves you best
Read about the wisdom lost, a knock, a knock, a knock
A secret knock one hammer’s locked the other wisdom lost


My carpenter’s out and running about, talking to the street
My pockets are out and running about
Barking in the street to tell what I have hidden there
My carpenter’s out and running about, barking in the, listen to the holler
My pockets are out and running about
Barking in the street to tell what I have hidden there

Listen, listen to the holler,
If I write a book it will be called "Life and How to Live It"
"and the sun it may be shining...but there's an ocean in my eyes"
Please come and play the southern United States ( West Palm Beach, Florida)
"Here's my tax statement: Fuck the IRS"

Why not? I love PJ's take on Sonic Reducer and I could very well imagine them getting something out of that song as well.

Runnin Down a Dream or You Wreck Me by Tom Petty would be cool. I loved when Ed did The Waiting with them a few years back.
