    my favorite moment has to be going to ACL with my wife last year. it was her first show & i hadn't seen them since 2003. sure, it was muddy and the stench of sewage was strong....but it was AWESOME!!!

    My favourite Pearl Jam moment would have to be meeting Eddie after a concert, and him putting his arm around me. I swear to god, my knees were shaking...

    Thanks for the opportunity my friend...

    I was fortunate enough to be turned on to this band before "Ten" was ever released.And was able to see them 3 times between Oct of 1991 and July of 1992. The first time in a hall that sat 3000, the second in a bar with about 600 other people, and the third time at Lollapalooza where I met Dave Abruze and partied with him on the lawn at Blossom Music Center. :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:

    well, been a fan since Ten was released. Have only seen them twice, the last being this past May. The highlight was taking a friend to HER firsat PJ show and seeing the joy on her face as the show played out.the show and setlist was highly emotional for me on a personal level and to be able to share that with a good friend who's seen me through some hard times , well, it was priceless.

  • my son is a "country music" mostly kinda kid - but he had his license for about a week and asked if he could use my truck one saturday and of course I said yes
    He came back and said "Wow! Pearl Jam is great when you are driving!"
    He was so right, the power of this band in a moving car is beyond words...

  • My most memorable experience was my fiancee's and my first concert. This year in New Orleans, I was with the love of my life, and we were listening to our favorite band. It doesn't get much better. :D

    My favorite PJ moment ( and my first PJ experience) was stockholm 2000, when me with two others european PJ fan could enter the venue prior to PJ concert start. We sit on the grass for a while with some other guy tuning out his guitar (which turn out to be vocalist for the Dismemberment Plan, the opening band for PJ).Not long, suddenly ed come out on stage with his guitar and sit on a stool, mumbling "sorry, i have to soundcheck alone, all the guys are roaming street of stockholm for shopping". Then we are treated to series of song such as Deadman, last kiss, redemption song, soon forget, walking the cow, parting ways, trouble, patriot, around the bend. That's all rarities in sequence!!! this is just feel like a personal concert made by eddie to us, while thousand of fans outside can only hear the music, we hear and see eddie so close that I am barely dare to shoot him with my camera. After soundcheck ended, we are ask politely by Pete (PJ security) to leave the venue. The other two guys decide to sneak again backstage, I choose to stay outside this time because i feel enough shock today, can handle myself another surprise. While I am waiting outside in the back gate, suddenly ed come out and shake our hand briefly before return backstage...I was shock again by this band, are they rockstar or normal people? because they just do things unimaginable according to their popularity.
    That's I think the best PJ moment that I can get so far...
    it makes more sense...

    Wow! Awesome contest!

    I'll go with "Blood" live at Soldier Field. Band went absolutely nuts for about 10 min, trashed the stage, everyone thought the show was over, lights came on so everyone started to leave. Ed and Mike came back out to play YL. Absolutely epic show! This was the band at their best so far in my eyes in 1995.
  • crown of thorns.. boston 2010. just magical.

    first concert! First time live...finally a PJ fan years later than the rest ;)
  • Wow how generous of you! Thanks and good luck to all.. :)

    My favorite PJ experience:

    The Kansas City 2003 show. Outdoor venue, total thunderstorm that night. Drenched to the core, amazing lightening show in the background with PJ playing. Everyone rocked out hard and it was just fabulous. It amazing and unforgettable for 2 other reasons: I turned 21 years old at the show AND it was my first PJ show ever. 8-)
    I wish I was an alien at home behind the sun.....
    I wanna race..with the sundown..I want a last breath..I don't let out...
