I remember in 2006 when Pearl Jam did a tour for the Pearl Jam album and they went to Australia but not New Zealand, i was so pissed off i wrote a letter and everything. So the night they were playing in Melbourne i think it was. I put the 2000 Touring Band Dvd on with the surround sound up fall bore and drunk my wine and pretended i was at the Pearl Jam concert. (this was by myself) a couple of weeks later i told some work mates about it. They thought it was hilarious. I thought i was a great Saturday night at home pissed watching/singing along to one of the best bands in the world Pearl Jam.
Yeah i really felt on the verge of crying when i heard it had been confirm they were coming to Nz. my heat was racing and i my face was sore from smiling.

got release in bris 98. they walked out on stage and Ed just went OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
so very haunting
I got chills
I remember it like it was yesterday, because it was my first time seeing them, and this was looooooong time b4 utube.
I was 18 first year out of high school broke as broke could be on the dole. but they were my band and I had to be there.
I looked at the shirts and posters, what I would give for a "give way" shirt, but the $15/$20 was way out of my price range so was the $3 beers.
I took my seat at the back of boondal just off the floor 3 rows back. when the band took the stage the crowd roared as Ed sung the first note the blue lights raised with his voice.
Everyone around me were on thier feet we moved to the railing lifting the banks of seats behind us as we went. standing at the barrier I saw people jumping ove at one end the security rushed away from where I stood, I took my shot, lifting the railing and swinging it out like a farm gate I ran into the abyss that was the mosh pit.
The crowed moved like a massive beast as one in harmony. We rocked the free world that night and I got my Wishlist.

Oh I'm a lucky man to count those I love on two hands
I loved my long sleeve black Vitalogy shirt -- with the orange Vitalogy on the front and little orange angel on the back. Wore it non stop to school with my little cherry docs. BEST fucking shirt ever. Best fucking concert ever! 15 and seeing the band you LOVE and obsessed about. Can't beat that feeling. I've still got the shirt but don't wear it -- it's too faded now.
just watched the fixer in HD full screen - very different looking to the shitty quality one from the other day. i kinda dig the effect of it, but no one looks particularly happy.

Memmmmoriesssss...
have that shirt too.
mines kinda faded now too, looks like a grey shirt
and i have a massive Yield sign sticker that say pearl jam instead of yield, each side is 60cm long. it doesn't even fit on the back window of the car which is where i was gonna stick it. it's a real thick vinyl sticker which would be easy to peel off also.

ha, i've got one that was on a freeway off ramp. so it's fucking massive, not your normal size one.
i think i may have caused some accidents on the M1 cause people didn't give way
Re: shirts, i'm predicting a black stickman shirt with "brisbane" written above the stickmans hands.
