***ISO of 1 ticket to Seattle - Anniversary Show***

edited November 2013 in Given To Fly (live)
The short version:
ISO of 1 ticket to Seattle. Open to options. My husband (also a 10c member) was able to maneuver work and school to make it to the show, so now he's in need!


The long version:
My husband and I met through this forum in 2006. We started chatting, talking on the phone and eventually in early 2007 we met in person. We flew back and forth over the next 2 years as our relationship grew. The seattle show will be the 5th anniversary of him moving from Australia to NJ (Dec 6, 2008). We got married in 2009 and are both huge PJ fans. How could we not be? He was able to make last minute adjustments to his school and work schedule to make it to the show and we would love to both be in the venue as a sort of celebration. We then plan to spend the weekend exploring the city :) He's coming to Seattle whether or not he finds a ticket, but would be awesome to enjoy the same show even if we don't sit together.

"What a different life had I not found this love with you" :D

Thank you for considering!

    You just made our whole year! Thank you so much :D It means so much for us to both see Pearl Jam on this anniversary. The back and forth for 2 years was hard, but worth it and this forum really helped us stay connected during that time.

    When Tim (Zoso) first came here in December 2008 it was just going to be for an extended visit, then we were able to change his status through immigration so he could stay. I found my post in the "What Made Your Day" thread when we realized he was able to stay :lol:

    You're totally welcome. There's no way the hometown fans were going to let you and Tim be shut out after meeting through the band and coming together from different sides of the world. Happy Anniversary you crazy kids - from Seattle with love!! :D

    It's going to be a legendary tour-ending show - I just know it!!

    Hey, me and my husband also met through the forum and I moved over to the States from Germany last year. Let me know if there is any other hometown fans who might want to trade two tickets in section 219 for 2 GA ;):) There is a wedding party in the pit that we would love to join :mrgreen:

    Thanks. I wish I did have more tickets to pass out to all the people still looking to be hooked up. In fact, I''d love to be the Oprah of PJ ticket giveaways: "There's a plane to take all of us to ALL the shows. There's GA tickets for you and you and you!!" :lol:

    P.S. All these multinational PJ romances, where's the (older) PJ fan guy for me?

    Wow Lisa I can't believe it's been a year already too! Time really does fly. Hope you guys make it down to GA for the wedding party. I'm just gonna keep an eye out for Ashlee's veil :D

    :lol: The Oprah of PJ tickets - I love it. And then we can all jump on our chairs and confess our love for you like Tom Cruise :lol:

    :lol: Too bad the original "What Made Your Day" thread got lost with the transition over from the old board along with all of those posts. I lost all of our old PMs too which were our modern day love letters :( But don't worry Norm, I'm pretty sure I can get Tim to start posting on the new thread again just for old time's sake ;):lol:

    You never know where you may meet your PJ soulmate...I had to fly to the middle of Montana...go to a KOA campground and have unlost dogs kidnap my guy :D We didn't have to fly across the ocean to see each other like cbg & Leeze, but we were 700 miles away from each other in the beginning....

    well we got a ticket (thanks again you know who). this time last week there was no way seattle would work but my wife is persistent (much more so than me). I had no idea it would have been 5 years come this december thats amazing to me and it's a pretty special landmark for all concerned.
    I'm just flying around the other side of the world to say I love you

    Sha la la la i'm in love with a jersey girl

    I love you forever and forever :)
