    Mail a letter to the venue with "Pearl Jam Production" on it.

    I'd give it a 90% chance of getting to the band's tour staff.

    James, Try to get it on stage and mail it!

    Just because I kind of remember this but now I'm not sure. Did Eddie set something on fire last night in Buffalo or was I really that drunk? Anyone remember?

    With a little more time I woulda suggested using the old fashioned postal service, as well as emailing <!-- e --><a href="mailto:info@tenclub.net">info@tenclub.net</a><!-- e --> as well as the post, as well as finding the "Pearl Jam dude" in the merch stalls before the shows, as well as the try-get-it-on-stage way. Looks like the message will probably get to them. Nice work! Hope so anyways. I will listen out on the bootleg as I'm in Asutralia and definately won't be at the shows.

    Cheers!

    Everyone just because I am a "little fella" doesn't mean I'm not as huge as a PJ fan as you guys because I know that's what your thinking. I am a HUGE HUGE PJ fan. I have every boot every known to PJ fans! Again thanks for your support and keep bumping!!

    that is one bad ass move... giving up a sneaker for a fellow fan who is a stranger... as I recall, there is a bad history with throwing shows (ref: shoe the shoeless), so I am not surprised the sneaker was sacrificed... great job though... I will be at MSG and hope to hear the outcome...
    I didn't give up my sneaker. Here's the complete story now that I am sober. I met up with a fellow 10c'er before the show to use my extra ticket. His name is Chris A. and I think his name on this board is tightropehigher...
    ...Congrats James, your letter was delivered. Also, congrats Chris. I am a man of my word and if you can get to MSG2 I have a ticket for you free of charge.

    Chris here,

    James, I hope they do this for you! Magic Eight Ball just confirmed they would.
    Thank you for everything David!! Last night was a complete sensory overload. And some how I ended up walking home wearing both shoes. The fire you saw was probably just Mcready shredding. I will let you know if I can make MSG in a few days.

    Good luck man. I hope this happens for you. Send your dad our best. He's in our prayers.

    speaking as someone who knows how powerful a letter can be and the amazing things that can happen after it, this is a very powerful thread and i wish this family the best of luck, health, and PJ Kharma. What a great story where I am sure each chapter will only get better as we read on...

    Hope this works out for you, what a story. I am going to Bristow tomorrow night and although I may not get front row (keeping my fingers crossed for the lottery) I printed out a copy just in case to give to them is possible. Keep the faith, Pearl Jam's music is like medicine, so take it all in and enjoy the view, appreciate life and be blessed to be able to take your Dad to the show!
    I am mine!
