I like this because I think it kind of captures why each of us is drawn to the band. I will be working on this immediately upon posting it. Have fun!
-I am going to count up all the votes at Midnight and then I'll post the winners here.
-Ballots are closed. I will do my best to have this all counted by tomorrow so that I can announce the winners. There are a lot of people who posted and a lot of categories so it may take a while. Be patient with me. Thanks to all of those who participated!

i don't think it's the worst song (imo big wave is) it's definitely not among the best on the album. "Pearl Jam" has potential to be my fav pj album.
