    When your wife tells friends "my husband has about 400 Pearl Jam bootlegs all in cases with covers in their own rack"

    They say "never heard of them".

    I then think they are special needs candidates.

    when you hunt ebay everyday hoping none else sees a bargin...http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PEARL-JAM-GOT-SOM ... .m14...not a bargin but the next single is
    and you think you're a PJ fanatic when you put a £60 max bid on Mexico 3 2003? Then you realise you're not that big a fanatic when the fucker goes for £117.

    Your just trying to make us jelouse!
    Well, I am anyway :?

    I am also jealous.

    I started thinking today it would be a really, really, good idea do some compilation cd's of my favourite songs from PJ over the years to give to friends for christmas.

    However, as none of them are fans, and the only thing they know about them is that I like them - not sure if they'll appreciate it.

    When you launch your BIGPOND Internet browser and all you see is the artwork from Backspacer, and you break out in a cold sweat thinking, ' this is it, I've lost it, I'm heading to the looney bin'............ :wtf:
    Phew, it was just a comp for free tix. :lol:

    haha - nice one. although it's quite possible many of us start up internet explorer to see backspacer artwork due to tc being their homepage - i'm considering doing this, but fear that this is the first real step in the direction of pearl jam-related psychosis...

    He he, good thread.

    . . . you spend a couple of hours deliberating over and arranging, then rearranging your top 50 PJ songs. I still feel bad about 18 songs that I had to leave out. :P

    You have a mild panic attack because you think you've lost your copy of Binaural.

    (did eventually find it on the shelf with the other cd's :roll: )

    Fuck that! I tried to do that and make a PJ Favorites playlist and ended up with 75 songs. I REALLY wanted it at 50, but it was hard enough to scale down to 75.

    your a pj fanatic when you could go see seven bands that you really like for the price of one ticket for pj but your still able to justify in your mind somehow to go to four or five in a row...
  • You spend HOURS organizing pj rarities tracks on your itunes. You seriously think you need help for your pj-OCD.

    Seeing an ad for Sony with the word lowlight in an ad for football twilight pics and the words car crash fly into my brain....

    Also, any time I see two birds flying I start to sing Lowlight! This is really not healthy!
    Given To Live -

    Latest story - Declan at Slipknot is up on the website now at www.giventolive.com along with Kayleigh at Foo Fighters, Tony at Stereophonics and more.

    Inspired by Pearl Jam, making live music dreams come true.
  • When during every single free moment you could spend with your boyfriend/girlfriend, you keep on talking about PJ saying:

    "Come and look at this video! Can't you see how fantastic they are???!They are much better than Soundgarden! Chris Cornell is a shit, now he is making music with Timbaland!"

    while you are listening to Backspacer and searching for new videos on youtube.

    After this your boyfriend/girlfriend will start hating PJ even if before he liked them.

    This is exactly what happened to me, but I am happy so next time I will go to a PJ concert maybe I will go without him.
    Maybe this could be a good strategy to adopt if you want to quit with your partner but you do not know how to do that.
