Some notable exclusions:

From Binaural

  1. Grievance- would be so fun on drums
  1. Breakerfall - short but fun, energetic song
  • Really wish Grievance was given a chance to be on there

No Code

  1. Hail Hail - may be a bit boring in the game though... would finally get some of the lyrics though
  2. In My Tree - This would be great fun, especially on drums
  • Overall pleased, but very disappointed by the #2 omission

Pearl Jam

  • They have this one really well covered: Severed hand, Worldwide Suicide, Life Wasted, Marker in the Sand and Inside Job. Great choices although I may have liked to have seen Parachutes. Especially looking forward to Severed Hand.

Riot Act

  • Not my favourite album. I Am Mine, 1/2 Full and Love Boat Captain are fine choices, I'm just not overly fond of the album.

Ten

  • Already released. I'd be fine with taking only a few songs... maybe a live version of Black. They're typically even much better than the studio version. Should be great on guitar and vocals.

Vitalogy

  1. They covered this on extremely well with Last Exit, Betterman, Whipping, Spin the Black Circle, Satan's Bed and Nothingman. The only song I may have added is Immortality. Although I'm not complaining, they've nearly included the whole album.

VS

  1. Daughter - A classic. Odd that they left it out.
  2. Glorified G - Very fun song. The guitar parts would have been great
  3. Dissident - A fan favourite, again, odd they left it out.
  • Overall, very pleased with the choices from VS. Go, Animal, Small Town (My favourite PJ song) would be extremely fun; Go for it's guitar and drums, Animal for the guiitar and vocals and Small Town for its vocals.

Yield

  1. No Way - Funky song, would have been a nice change of pace. Maybe not a whole lot of live versions to choose from though
  2. All Those Yesterdays - Just a personal favourite
  • Great choices, otherwise: Do the Evolution, Brain of J should be fun, energy songs on all instruments while Given to Fly and Wishlist are great slower songs for beginners.

B-sides/Other

  1. Yellow Ledbetter is a very noticeable omission. Probably can't nail down the lyrics Watch video at end of post.
  • Footsteps and Wash I could do without, however, I got ID, Down and State of Love and Trust are fantastic choices.

Yeah, I'm a bit excited. Plus there should be several other bands on there that were around in their early years: Nirvana, Soundgarden (I hope). etc. I'd also think there'd be some of their influences like, hopefully, Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen and The Who.
