The Pearl Jam Night of My Life... WOW... Front Row.. DEAD CENTER!

I hit the lottery last night and score SECTION AAA ROW 1 Seats 23 and 24. I still can't believe it. I took my wonderful girlfriend who has never seen pearl jam besides Ed solo in Maui. We were on top of the world.

I could go on and on but I'll tell just one quick story. ED ASKED ME TO HELP HIM REMEMBER THE PARACHUTE LYRICS! Ha.. I couldn't believe it. We were right in front of him and he points right at me when he was introducing the song and said YOU gotta help me remeber the lyrics. OK... here we go. So we're singing the song and Ed starts locking on me and I'm mouthing them as clearly as I can... but then we get to where it gets a little foggy for me... and Ed aparantly and he lost it. We both started laughing and he moved on in perfect Ed fashion.

Anyhow... it was a moment that I'll never forget.

I apologized to him after the song and we graciously laughed at each other. One song later Ed stepped forward and tossed me a pick. I was elated. At the end of the show Ed caught my attention again and shot me another pick to give to my girlfriend. Ed is so rad.

It was SO SO GREAT. I've been so die hard for so long for this to have happened felt incredible. I felt like I won the lottery.

Anyhow... here is link to the vid. Its pretty funny in the middle when he screws up... he blames me. I'll take the blame.

100x Thank you to PJ and Ed.

Talked to you last night, can't believe how cool that must have been. I love this Pearl Jam family everyone I met and talked to was so friggin' cool!!

100x Thank you to PJ and Ed.

I was in the third row in front of Mike and took my best friend to her first show. We were laughing at all that! It was GREAT. Needless to say, it sure helped in her road to PJ obsession!

Tipjammer, I was standing just behind you in the 2nd row and saw the whole thing, that was awesome. Oh by the way, that's my video that I shot of him verifying your moment. Obviously, your perspective was a bit different being right in front of him. It was a great moment!

Soon Forget

Any pics of Mike playing on top of the speakers during Alive?

Fantastic show! Fantastic fans! Fantastic hotel! Fantastic city! Thank you Pearl Jam! Thank you 10c! Thank you San Diego! I was actually sad when Eddie finished Yellow Ledbetter and said that's it, I'm done. He left it all on that stage. It was great. Any one get video of him with Ben Harper? I was only able to see the last 2 songs of Ben Harper's set. Standing in line to get my tickets. I was disappointed they didn't come to
Vegas but traveling to San Diego made the concert that much better.

Anyone else in the trolley after the show? Someone was blocking the doors, therefore we couldn't move. It was PACKED and we sat at the Grantville station for at least 20 minutes...with no air.

This guy totally deserves it!
Duncan, it was great seeing you and meeting your girlfriend. Let's do dinner soon!

The show was amazing!! The Backspacer songs sound even better live! I was not a big fan of Johnny Guitar until I heard it live. Amongst the Waves, Unthought Known, Force of Nature, The Fixer & Got Some=AWESOME

Was psyched to hear You Are and I got Shit. The band was on fire...jumping around like they were still in their 20's. All in all it was an incredible show with an an even more incredible setlist!

I'm so glad I made the trip from the east coast to the west coast!

I can't wait for the Philly shows now!

pearljgirl2010

had a BLAST in SD...I don't think the setlist shows the energy and fun the band was having on stage...what a great run of shows :-)

I was there..that was horrible. I wasn't sure whether someone was blocking the door or it just wouldn't close. At a later stop a door near me wouldn't close even though no one was blocking it and someone outside had to slam it shut. Packed is an understatement for that old trolley...and the driver was rude too.

Did you stay at the Mission Valley Marriott? If so, I think I met you when walking back from the trolley.

I thought the driver was hilarious...and so irritated. LOL! I saw the "official" dude walk by apparently, as you said, to slam the door shut. What made it even more enjoyable (note the sarcasm) were the two wacky guys who broke into Boyz 2 Men duets during the wait.

Yes. I was in the same car standing next to them. Hilarious. Two brothers seranading us with boyz to men! Others didn't seem to enjoy it as much. They were rather mouthy and almost got a beat down.

How come no pictures of this show yet on the home page?

For me the three highlights (aside from Under Pressure in Ben's set) were The End, RVM, and Little Wing. Amazing show
