If you've ever seen the list "You know you're a Jam Head when.." than you'll understand how this works. I found it alot of fun to read and thought it would be cool to start one here on the Forum. Basically shows the little things we all do proving we are PJ FANATICS!!! I'll start it off to show you all what Im talking about. (Also, this is my first Topic so go easy on me if you think its lame :lol: )

You know you're a PJ Fanatic when..
You go through other people's iPods and the first thing you look for is IF they have any PJ on it and how much. Then silently judge them when they have only 2 SONGS!

or

You get excited anytime you see the word PEARL in a sentence!

:lol::lol: ENJOY!!!

    You spend about 2 hours going through your bootlegs in an attempt to find the best 'cinnamon girl' tag on I Got Shit!

    N.B - In my opinion its Hamburg 96!

    ...when you delete multiple gigabytes of work documents so that you can fit more bootlegs on your company laptop, which is functioning as your disaster recovery area for your PJ collection.

    You spend the 13th anniversary of your first Pearl Jam concert at Randall’s Island on September 29, 1996 listening to the opening set while drinking Oktoberfest and you get so much energy from it you to to the YMCA to exercise and in the middle of a forearm curl you realize you’re drunk and you go home and listen to the encores.

    So true. Earlier this summer I mentioned to friends (who aren't Pearl Jam fans) that PJ were touring the UK and it would be cool if Ed could fit in a solo show somewhere along the way, to which their jaws dropped wide open as they couldn't belive that I hadn't seen that Ed was making a solo performance at Guilfest in Surrey. Of course I rushed to the nearest PC to check this out/book my tickets, and of course it was ...

    Took a while to calm down after that one.

    You know you're a PJ Fanatic when...your local picture framer refers to you and your partner as Mr & Mrs Pearl Jam.

    when it only take you 30 minutes to get to work, but you leave 6 minutes early so you can jam to all of Backspacer !

    :?

    ... you spend about 3 hours in work making a spreadsheet with how many times you've seen different songs live. In the lead with 14 times each are Do The Evolution, Given To Fly and Why Go.

    ^^ how about when you burn copies of all your boots because you don't want to wear out the originals, then you place them in their own CD wallet with index cards for each disc containing the Date / Venue / track listing.

    you make little business cards with the picture of your PRLJAMN license plate and hand them out at your 35th class reunion just to spread the PJ word

    You know you're a PJ Fanatic when... a new album comes out you listen to it constantly and the only time you deviate it's to listen to the rest of their catalogue :D

    OR

    You know you're a PJ Fanatic when... you're on line to see them at Irving Plaza and a guy is offering $1000 for a ticket and you just laugh to yourself thinkin, Not for $1,000,000 buddy! :D
    Oh, if I knew where it was, I would take you there, but there's much more than this.
    Ooooh. Whoooa, much more than this. Woooh see the world. Much more than... Oooh, much more than.. Why?

    When you go shopping in your faded No Code T-shirt and notice a poster on the bank window about a quiz night with the crew from an oldies radio station ( 6PR ) offering first prize as " Tickets to Pearl Jam with a Limo" and even though you got 3 extra tickets to that concert, ...........................
    Breathe...............
    Get a group organised for that Quiz night. 8-)

    You teach a prenatal class and introduce the "Unthought Known" and Blue brain theory to your students and tell them how you are privy to the information. :D

    The day after the concert you show all your patients at work, the 10 seconds and 1 still that you managed to take before your battery ran out. Most of them are over 65 and nod politely.

    When you're pissed with half of your friends because they said stuff like:

    I liked ten when it came out but I rather listen to the smashing pumpkins.
    Are they still playing!?!

    You know you're a PJ fan when...

    ...you know all the lyrics to the new album the day after it's dropped

    ...you constantly think you're above everybody else cause you know more about PJ than non-10 clubbers and you have to sound pretentious when showing off some PJ trivia.

    ...you bitch about 10c, then after they deliver, you realize how much you take the 10c for granted, but then you bitch again when something else upsets you...(it's a vicious cycle)

    ...you bitch about all the posts bitching

    ...you fuckin love this band
