hehe I was just thinking about this thread and I remembered a time when I was watching Live at the Garden with my dad and he said, "don't any girls go to pearl jam concerts? what's the point of being in a rock band if no girls go to your concerts?" .
Pearl Jam should play a "female fans only" show just for fun.
I never noticed this phenomena before. And I am a chick. And this chick only took another chick with her to all the shows she attended until - da dum - I got married. Now by unspoken law - I am obligated to take my husband. Which is no problemo cause he likes the band too and is happy to tag along with me!

I'd be all for that! It would be in a nice small venue where we all get front row.
Oh wow, that's a sweet dream...small club, no frat boys.
I'm personally very picky as to who I bring along as my 10C partner.
Right now, it's my girlfriend... but she's a fan which works out.
Before I used to bring either my brother, cousin, or other friends who are into the Jam.

because guys will go to a concert with a buddy. chicks are needy and need a guy to take them.
and when was the last time you saw a girl go solo to a show??? never? yet guys go solo all the time. why, cause we got some.....balls.
Guess what? I'm a chick and I go to shows by myself allll the time. Always have, always will.
I find I have a better time and meet a lot more new people when I'm not worrying about other peoples' agendas.
I'm just saying,
Not all chicks are lame like you described.

LOL ohh you've never seen ME at a show then lol. I don't stop dancing and singing the entire show.
I can name some other women on this board who know how to rock BIG TIME too!
I've been with other girls...did Toronto with my friend Maya and Chicago 1 with my best friend TorontoPearlGirl.
Sometimes I end up going with a guy...depends on who I end up getting my tix from cause I don't use my own number unless I know when they go onsale if I can go 100% or if I don't have another 10C member using their number for the two of us.

i'm a girl and another girl is getting my 2nd ticket. her boyfriend is gonna be sitting up in the stands by himself while we bask in pearl jam's warm glowing warming glow.

Crap (about the needy chicks, that is). I go to PJ shows by myself just about all the time, and I'm a female. Noticed most of the crowd at the front of the Calgarry festival seem to be guys, not many girls around. Strange, that. PJ seem to be more of a guys band than a girls, but I know heaps of women love 'em!

Sooo, not true. I've been to about a dozen concerts recently all solo. I buy expensive tickets and don't impose my musical tastes on anyone. So I travel and go to shows alone. Yeah, some people think it's weired to see a crazy chick rockin out on her own, don't give a shit. Some dudes try to hit on me...but I usually ignore em cause I'm in it for the music and share that experience with the music freaks around me. I even went to see PJ at Lolla alone. Oh damn...just looked down my pants and I see a pair of nads forming. BTW I'm going to LA for the PJ show in Sept...alone!

howcome he didn't want to go when you were dating?
honestly - me being the rotten snot that i was, i didnt think he would truly appreciate it at the time. it wasnt until he & i moved in together that he stopped listening to music i hated and crossed over from the dark side of bad music. :roll: and due to the timing of it all it just never came to be that he could go. therefore - i never even considered it an option (when we were dating) that he would go with me! and quite frankly - it doesnt bother him or myself at all. come to think of it - betcha my friends pissed cause she dont get to go anymore!

Hahaha I've been to a million shows solo, including Pearl Jam! I've flown across the country solo to see Pearl Jam, solo. I can't imagine any girl thinking they need a guy to go to a show. That explanation doesn't make sense.
My first show at the Astoria, I flew solo and never had to go solo after that again. This year, I got Jenny's spares, other years I've had Bab's spares... so pairs of women aren't strange at all.
The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
Verona??? it's all surmountable
Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
Wembley? We all believe!
Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
Chicago 07? And love
What a different life
Had I not found this love with you

Lol -- you guys bash on the the frat boys but at the end of the day it is the frat boys who decide how good the crowd is going to be.

If i'm taking a trip to go see them, she'll usually pass, so then the extra ticket goes to a friend who is willing to make the trip.
