I am currently sitting on 9 shows after hitting Indy on this last run. I am of the opinion that show #10 needs to be very special for obvious reasons. At this point each of my shows has been at a different venue. Anyone have a suggestion as far as venue is concerned? Should I wait for a Annivesary show? What was your 10th show?

    Im on show 19, so it looks like my 20th could possibly be the 20th anniversary show.

    My 10th show was Hartford 08 so that was nice. I wouldnt worry about it to much, just go to the next show possible...dont skip a show because you dont think it will be special.

    #10: VFC Reading, 2004
    #20: Spectrum I, 2009
    #25: Buffalo, 2010

    I did not realize any of these shows were personal "landmark" shows til after the fact. *shrugs*

    My opinion: By holding out for a particular show/venue to be you're 10th, you are arbitrarily short changing yourself. Just go w/ the flow. Aside from obvious Pearl Jam related reasons, 10 is only an important number b/c evolution (or God or whatever) gave you 5 fingers on each hand. That's it.

    i just think where ever you are for your 10th will be special
    just because it's the 10th
