my 20th birthday: August 22, 1998, Molson Park, Barrie, ON
The only other time they've played a gig on my birthday:
1992 - Lollapalooza, Bicentennial Park, Miami FLA
And not really a PJ tour but they also played August 22nd in '95:
1995 – "NeilJam tour" to support Mirroball- Sultan’s Pool: Jerusalem, Israel
Was one day shy of my 31st birthday this year with the show on August 21 in Toronto.

Halloween birthday, made the trip to Philly 4 this year.
Ten Club gave me a front row center birthday present. Best Birthday Ever.
OMG.
:shock:
fantastic!
i would LOVE that birthday present.
actually, that is an 'any day' present.....
someday i actually hope to be able to attend a concert on my birthday, so sad i am missing it, again, this year. such is life....
Oh yea...the only cool thing that ever happened on my birthday was 2008, Neil Young, in the garden, 10th row....also got a birthday shout out from neil young....but it wasn't for me it was for Wilco's drummer's son
Considering they seem to favour touring in the summer, I'm a little surprised they've only played my bday once:
1992-08-16
Star Lake Amphitheater
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
I would not have had the means to get there on my 18th....not to mention the fact that, pre-internet, I'd probably have had no clue this show was even happening.

Aww man, why'd ya gotta say that?? Nahh, no big deal-- hope you had a blast!!!
I wish my parents understood, but sadly, they don't. My dad understands to a degree, as he brought me up on good music, but really despises driving and is a little over-obsessed with always attending work, hardly ever exceptions. My mom has no comprehension of what this band means to me-- once she even got mad and told me "You can take your Pearl Jam and shove it!" Alright, dont mean to rant!
But coming from a teenager, you're a really really cool parent for saying that!!

my mom didn't like them when i was a teen. granted they were harder then. but she's a fan now. but really, she had no choice. years and years of pj have worn her down.

Let's just breathe...
I am myself like you somehow
But I did get Bruce at Giants Stadium for my Birthday this year
THAT was awesome!
Jeff, Mike, Ed, Stone, Matt, Boom, maybe this year you can play a show in my basement on my bday....its too cold to play outside on my deck in CT
It was unbelievably lucky. I got an EV pick and my wife got a McCready pick, plus I got lyrics to Out of My Mind. So even got presents too! Haha.
Makes me want to go wherever they play on my birthday and try and repeat my luck.
