When you are bored and you take out all you're PJ vinyl and make sure it is in the same condition as they were the last time you checked on them. Then put them back in order of release, making sure that all albums are in a straight line on the shelf. I am OCD about my PJ collection, but you should see the rest of my house. :oops:

The rest of my house is tidy, but my Pearl Jam collection is all over the place :? :oops:
When your friends look thru your car cd wallet and all they see is PJ BOOTS & BACKSPACER, and they ask do you listen to anything else ? to wich i reply not for the next 4months or refuse to throw away that special TSHIRT from the 95 tour it's see thru now :oops: ..
don't tell me you still wear it
the image i have in my head is rather disturbing
I still wear my t-shirt from 1992 tour, what are you talking about!?
I still wear my No Code shirt, even though a friend borrowed it to swim in, ( :roll: without asking of course)
in my salt/ chlorinated pool and it immediatly faded!
That was 9 years ago. I'm proud to still be wearing it.
when you book a week in orlando (which you're not even that bothered about going to) flying from the UK just so you can go to the the Tampa show, of which you also need to get a train to, and then of course pay for another hotel for one night JUST so you get to see one PJ show in 2008!!!!
When you spend 15 minutes on your knees after the show in Portland trying to pry the pick Mike threw at you from where its stuck under the barricade while trying not to use the hand that Eddie shook...
:oops:
Did you get the Pick and where did your hand travel and when did it get washed?
:ugeek: I am a Fanatic, so I want answers.
No, I didnt get the pick. The security guys told me to hit the road so I took my Ed-sweat-slathered hand and left. And yes...I washed it before I ate the taco bell I bought on the way home!
BTW...home being my brothers in Portland not my actual home in ohio

You could have auctioned them germs and funded your next tour.
When you have slipped into some kind of Post Concert Depresssion after winning the lottery (Orch AA) at LA 2. You look forward to it for SO long, then it actually happens and there are truly no words to describe it. Two days later, you are still sitting here wondering if you have gone crazy because you are still totally bummed that it's over.
Thanks, guys, for giving me hope that I'm not totally insane. It's nice to know there are people like me out there.
Your I Pod is 99.9% Pearl Jam and Your leaving your husband and kids behind again to fly to Philly from Fl to see them @ the Spectrum. After seeing PJ last summer @ Bonnaroo and Columbia S.C.!
You get into a huge argument with your 13 yr old son over whose turn it is to wear the limited numbered Stickman hoodie even when you have the regular Stickman hoodie and at least 2 t-shirts. :$

When you have a bedside dresser full of your (rarely or unworn) Pearl Jam shirts, tanks, hoodies and hats and all your vinyl, books, DEEP mags, RARE CDs & DVDs, EV wallet, over 60 posters and PJ related magazines in one spot in a closet just outside your bedroom so in the event of a fire, you can grab all your PJ stuff
one problem though...too much shit to carry, I should probably park a wheelbarrow in there too

Leaving your husband and kids behind for just one show? Yeah, try for the ENTIRE TOUR then come back and talk to me :P
I have no patience for bad music and stupid people...
The whole world will be different soon the whole world will be RELIEVED
When you go to the emergency room and get admitted to the hosipital for what could or could not be a serious medical condition and you are pissed because you are missing Pearl Jam even though you saw them twice a couple of months ago and will see them twice again in a couple of weeks. P
When you have listened everyday since March to the 2008 bootleg box set until Back Spacer was released and then thats all you have listend to for the last 2 weeks.
You stop going to work to follow Pearl Jam around and you are seeing them more in a few months then you've seen your family in 3 years...
You run out of batteries almost everyday on your BlackBerry from checking the board and facebook through out the day to make sure you don't miss any Pearl Jam related news.
You feel in love with this band in 1991 and it has ment more to you then most things in life...
You now you are a fanatic when every person you know associates you with them and if they hear any news about them they text you immediatly....and you just laugh, like that is something I would not have known. They think you just listen to them like other bands, you know like a few good songs. They have no idea about the bootlegs and how good every cd is, that you just can't get enough of them. It is truly an obsession, and one I would never want to give up.

I'm not there yet, but I hope to get there one day!
I never thought of it that way, but I am flattered when people associate me with that band... I almost feel like they are family to me. I know that sounds sick, but I personally don't know what I would do with out them. They inspire me, and make me such a better person. I feel bad that other people don't have this passion...it is amazing. We are lucky we live it.

....it's actually stressful to listen to PJ with someone who may not be as big a fan as you...You want to keep checking to make sure they are appreciating them as much as they should.
You're in your own world, let's see the whole world. Let's pick up your soul.
