Wow!
I turned 51 a few weeks ago, Dec 9th.
In '08 my hubby & I took his daughter (now 34) and her fiance to see PJ at MSG. Hubby and I (he's 54) never sat, we danced through each show in their entirety. Afterwards the two 30 somethings complained about having to stand up all night,
In '06 on my 48th birthday I climbed Diamondhead then went to the U2/PJ show at Aloha Stadium. Was 2nd row at Blaisdell a week before that.
In '96 on my 38th birthday I got my first tattoo, a stickman.
And somewhere in the early 90s I heard Hunger Strike and that got me hooked on the music and a baritone voice that to this day still give me joy and get me through all the bullsh!t that life throws at us.
Us old peeps have endurance as well as great taste in music! :ugeek:
40 and still went to 3 of the 4 philly shows. been a fan since i saw them at rec hall (psu) opening for smashing pumpkins and red hot chili peppers in '01. i'm too far gone and too deeply addicted to quit now.....
i have been a pj freak since i first heard eddies voice on [alive] 92 and cant get enough of the band and eddies voice. He IS the god of music seen him four time am hoping to see again in 2010 if i can .i know there playing Hyde park but im at Glastonbury so am hoping the ll play the Saturday i need them to play Saturday i mean lol. oh yea im 41 bring the festives on!
How does being over 40 make you old? WTF? Why are some people so surprised that we still like rock music? Gotta vent here, I've been hearing this crap since I turned 30. I don't believe personalities change as soon as a person reaches a certain age. If you take care of yourself you will not get old.
A real possibility I may meet you in my dreams ~ I go to sleep

Wait till you hit 50. People act like its fuckin amazing that I still love to go to shows. :roll:

I didn't pay much attention until I saw them live at Memorial Stadium ( I had two kids- one being quite time intensive- & it had been quite a while since I had been able to go to a show).
THen I was hooked, but it was another while before I joined the TenClub, and then when I renewed I had two subscriptions for a while, I never did figure out if when the accounts were consolidated they were corrected for my original join date, or bumped to the later account.
But as long as they are playing, I will be going to shows- & I credit their involvement with local bands, especially Mike McCready, for expanding my interest into lots of other music.
Might as well take advantage of living in Seattle.

Well, those are the people that will automatically switch from liking rock to liking elevator music as soon as they turn 50 (or 40 or 30) Not us!!! :P

I know what you mean...about 15yrs ago, Smashing Pumkins were on SNL and my friends were like, you like these guys? I said to them..what am I suppose to listen to, Frank Sinatra?
i'm 43 and have been listening to pearl jam since early '90's. it's funny cause i used to totally blast 'ten' and jump around the house with my newborn son and sing him all the songs. he's 16 now and the greatest thing for me was taking him to his first pj concert and boy did he luck out - the final show at the spectrum was his first. it was just so cool to experience my favorite band with him.
I'm 48 and yes you are as young as you feel. For a minute at the Spectrum show and again at a Bruce show this year my legs were starting to burn out and then I remembered, they are working alot harder than I am and do it night after night. If they can do it for us then I can give my energy back to them. Imagine the pain and arthritis Pete Townsend must feel when he spins that arm around but he still does it for us.
And to the younger fans who are "suprised" to see "us" at shows, remember PJ's age. They are part of our generation and we understand where they are coming from. We grew up with the same musical hero's and icons. When EV talks about The Jackson 5 Grts hits being his 1st album I get it cause it was mine, 2nd was 3 Dog Night and then Rolling Stones #3 and The Who #5. I will never forget how many times I played those albums.
Rock and Roll keeps us all young. No retreat baby, no surrender.
I have 2 sons (13 and 18) and we listen to PJ together everyday. We love do it. PJ connected us in the amazing way. We have the same music taste...and it's so rare nowadays.
I believe it's not about age....it's about good taste for music :!:
I wish you all a happy new year.
I know all the rules but the rules do not know me!
I'm 42, and went to three shows at the Spectrum. Took my kids, 13 and 19, each to one of the shows. We all love Pearl Jam, but I'm the biggest fanatic in our house!
