    I missed this thread last week, sorry! But am so glad the message got through - read about it in the reviews from 2feet thick.

    How is Jenn doing?

    EDIT: Just read your review a few pages back...wow! And also Erik's Crown of Thorns story. That guy is hilarious!

    Glad you enjoyed your show and your friend Jenn will definitely enjoy the boot! :mrgreen:

    That's awesome. This story should be included in How to Be a Great Band 101.

    Did anyone on this board catch the harmonica? (I'm assuming that's what Eddie threw.)

    I was at the show last night as well, and I'm so happy that they did play "Smile" after a few words about your friend Jenn. I pray she get's gets better REAL SOON...

    Sending ((((((( hugs & good vibes ))))))) to you Jenn

    Wish you were here...

    SO happy that this worked out for you and your friend. It warms my heart to know that these guys really care for us fans.

    I wish a speedy recovery for Jenn.

    Oh how stories like this are truly insperational. All my thoughts and prayers are with Jenn and the family. I heard "Smile" for the first time live in Adelaide 09, tis amazing how much of a smile it brings to your face just to sing along to. PJ are certainly an inspirational band to listen to thru the bad times and the good. Keep Rockin in the Free World!!

    I have an update from Jenn!!! She said she is starting the recovery process and is still in the intensive care unit. She said it will take about a week. I told her what is going on here in this thread and she can't believe it! After she gets out of the ICU the doctors are supposed to schedule surgery asap to stop Menengitis from leaking into her brain!

    Again you guys have helped me wish her well and send her prayers! Keep her in your thoughts and minds! None of this would be possible without you guys help! You all rock!


    Thans again and Cheers,

    Jim

    Tell her she we're all pulling for her. Hopefully she can feel the great big virtual hug.
    It's nice to be nice to the nice.

    Hello everyone,

    Well I am the "infamous" Jenn. It's been a tough a week for me, but thanks to my family and friends, I'm fighting this and hopefully it will go away soon. Thank you to Jim(DiRtYyELLoWoCeAn) for starting this. You are an incredible friend and I love you with all my heart! I will never be able to thank you enough! Thank you to Pearl Jam, 10 club and everyone who helped for the dedication. I still wish I didn't miss the show, but hearing you dedicate "smile" to me, literally brought tears to my eyes, while I was laying in the hospital. So thank you, thank you, a million times thank you!!!! PJ has always been one of my favorite bands and now more then ever they have an even specialer place in my heart!!
    Thank you to all the 10cer's who left me comments. They really have helped me fight this! Now hopefully the next time Pearl Jam plays Boston, I'll be able to attend. I did fight with the dr's to let me go. Sadly, they weren't having any of it. Haha. Thanks again to all of you!!!!

    Fantastic post Jenn! You are a great friend! I'm glad things are getting better slowly but surely! I still can't believe the outpouring of love from the band and everyone involved! It's things like this that make me proud to be in the 10 Club! Again that you everyone for all your love, kind words and support!!
