I'm a leather jacket clasher with a flask of Southern Comfort in my pocket, reliving the days of my youth everytime I go to a concert...."Thinking maybe one day, Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd will do a Stadium tour TOGETHER...I guess if that happened, the 1st 1,000 people thru the gate will receive a bottle of geritol and a bag of weed....

I'm a strict vegetarian of about 18 years, was captain of the rifle team in high school 15 years ago. I have a pony tail and own a high-end retail business. I've played drums for about 25 years, but never enjoyed playing in front of people. I wear a rolex, but a $19 pair of shoes.
Which category do I get?

1. Hippie pothead types
2. Frat boy types
3. Dorky professional thirty or forty somethings trying to hold onto their youth
At one point or another, I've been all three. Currently (and probably for the next 15 yrs) in category three. Who am I leaving out?
Its hard to stereotype yourself over a 20 year span. I'm not #2 or 3 never was and couldn't be so I guess out of the 3 I am the Hippie pothead type.
But thats not the draw to PJ. I feel its the Thinker/Feeler type of person. The type who's mind is on emotion, collecting words to describe feelings, analyzing, longing to understand, searching for answers. Forever composing thought with a need to share that thought. Is that called "Deep" ? Oh and I discovered last evening while deep in thought listening to PJ- "Got Some" is them- its Pearl Jam, it perfectly fit that new revelation.

Early 40's whitecollar job but I never wear white collars...prefer Ben Sherman shirts and black Levis at the office. Slightly rebellious but not a radical, since I have some middle of the road political beliefs. I think I am youthful, but today's youth really annoys me at times!
recovered sufferer of teenage angst who still enjoys good music
I like that one! Sums it up nicely.
And can I just say that it's those who didn't have teenage angst who are worse off now? Seems angst was a natural reaction to this world if you ask me.
Oops... sorry for getting heavy there. This isn't AMT.
Can I pigeonhole myself? A dorky, professional, "big kid" stoner with deadly bile?
40-something who's just glad he got into Pearl Jam, however late in the day it may have been, instead of missing out on them completely. Although loving the band, this fan does not totally immerse themselves, claiming that every song is a bonafide classic and, possibly through maturity, can appreciate different aspects of songs, particularly lyrically, in place of just saying "Woooo, awesome riff dude!!!".

My friend calls my PJ obsession my "midlife crisis". I told her it's either this or I get a motorcycle or have a threesome.
How's three out of four?

I would fit into that one.
