  • I was driving cross country, and it was right after Jeremy had become such a hit. Anyway, I bought the tape (yes, a TAPE) and FF straight to Jeremy. I wanted to listen to it again so I rewinded the tape just a little too far and heard the last line in the song Black and it was love from that point forward! *sigh*

    Do you remember the first time you LISTENED to Pearl Jam??
    I had evenflow and just didn't dig it
    Someone gave me a mix tape back when there were tapes and it had a bunch of jams on it then "Black" came on. I was floored - you can't understand it really felt like someone dropped a ton of bricks on me. After that I bought Ten on tape and there has been no looking back

    U??


    july 2002.
    then i joined the 10c.
    i'd heard pj before, tho not that much - didn't listen to much radio anymore - but after 09.11 tribute to heroes piqued my interest in pj, and the following summer is when i really sat down and listened to the albums my husband already owned, and went out within the same week to purchase the rest. :mrgreen:
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    I remember it clear as day. I was 13. The year was 1991. My brother and I woke up early for school and were watching MTV. They used to play music videos back then. My brother says to me, " I hope they play Pearl Jam." I said, "Who is Pearl Jam?" Before he could answer, the Alive video came on and I was hooked. That was the first cd my brother ever bought. I kept stealing it and he was getting mad. He told me to ask our mom if I could buy Ten. She asked my brother if it was explicit. He said no, and she trusted him and I had my own Ten cd. I owe it all to my older brother. Been hardcore ever since.
