    August 24th a guy called Steve has a birthday, and will be rocking out in Chicago. What's your name, out of curiosity?

    Yes, last year turned 39 and caught them in Camden.

    Highlight was my favorite song, In Hiding.

    A night I will never forget.

    My friend's 30th birthday is Aug 22.

    Perhaps, if we're lucky, Pearl Jam will play past midnight on Aug 21 and she can ring in her 30th with Pearl Jam. :mrgreen:

    Seeing Pearl Jam is a heck of a way to spend your last few hours as a 20-something!

    :P

    Mine's Jan 13 (2 yrs older than you!) and I don't really expect to see them play on it anywhere near where I live. They don't typically tour the US so much in the Winter, so I'd have to catch them in another country, most likely.
