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.

the KC 2003 show was awesome!! one if my favorite PJ shows ever!

Seattle Key Arena 1996, drove from Memphis to Seattle by myself, town to town, rockin' to PJ through mountains and plains, 21 years old no cares, no worries. Just a great ride, great experience and the best way to really feel the music.

I'm glad i have such a personal moment to share. It would be almost impossible to pull one live moment above another, I've seen some truly memorable moments over the years, esp the 2009/2010 tour(s).

But the sandout one for me is in Perth 2009. I took my wife and (then 11) year old stepson to see PJ and we had 10C Fixer GA tickets. It was his first rock concert. To be in the fixer GA area, you had to be 12, so we told him to tell anyone who asked that he was 12. We managed to get a spot right in front of Jeff, on the rail. After Unthought Known, Ed asked the band to wait a sec and then decided to remind the crowd about safety, he mentioned that there were a lot of women down the front and then spied my step son, on the rail at the very front....

After this, Ed and Mike flicked picks at my stepson...

Even better, they kept the discussion on the boot.

Mine would be the first time I ever saw them play (London, Ont. 05) I got to take the love of my life with me. She new I was a big fan, but the day of the show, I was like a kid on Xmas day, she couldn't believe it. I was just glad I was able to experience something like that with someone I love. We both still remeber it fondly, even though its like 5 yrs ago. We've seen them 2 more times since

My favourite moment:
Berlin 2010: The most emotional version of Black I've ever heard! But to tell the truth, there are hundreds of other moments with PJ that I will never forget! Thanks for the opportunity, thats really an awesome present!! Good luck to everyone!

I hooked up with my cousin in 1998 in New Zealand, and surprised him with a trip to Wellington (he lives in Christchurch) to see PJ play at the Queens Wharf. Amazing show, awesome atmosphere, and I got to see the first of many PJ shows with the coolest guy I know! I travelled from Melbourne to Christchurch in 2009 and took him to see them play for the first time in the South Island! We've now seen them 4 times, and will continue to go as a team from now on!

And thanks for the generosity!

Favourite was seeing them in the shep bush club show and getting the front spot right in front of eddie and jeff... Awesome setting

Other than that hearing those opening notes to go on a cassette tape I stole from my brother and instantly becoming infatuated

Thanks

....I am so thankful that my greatest PJ moment isn't just a moment but a time period of two weeks which happend just this year. It's the collective experience I made whilst being on tour across Europe, 14 days of fun+sun, friendship, love and -of course- Pearl Jam
An amazing pre party in beautiful Dublin, 6 shows (of which the 6th show in Arras was a last minute add, there was simply NO WAY to say Good Bye after the Berlin show and I booked it all -flights, trainrides, ticket, a (not used) camping ticket etc.- only three days before the show), awesome people, now considered as friends and some life changing and stil ongoing happenings just blew me away xxxxx

It's honestly been the time of my life

Pearl Drummer

Going to boston 2010 and hearing red mosquito!!

Probably when the guys played "Crown of Thorns" the first of the two Seattle shows to end the Binaural tour. Very cool moment given what the band had been through and the vibe that night. I knew they played it in Vegas for thier 10th Anny, but to hear it at home was awesome.

Black Diamond

Such an amazing group of generous people...

Actually the LA4 show... My first with one of my kids and seeing the excitement in their eyes when the lights dimmed....

My favorite moment at a live show was during Alive in Vancouver 05. It was the most incredible feeling, of the crowd feeding off the band and the band gaining energy from the crowd and it just went back and forth for what felt like the most intense shared experience of my life!

confetti canons blasting ten feet in front of me, fixer girl rocking out full costume behind, pj tearing it up onstage to close the spectrum. Best atmosphere ever!

Favorite moment: Seeing them live for the first time in 1994 in Murfreesboro, TN.
Favorite upcoming moment: Having "Just Breathe" at my wedding on October 1, 2011.

No matter how many times I've seen them/we'll see them (it never gets old) my all time favorite memory was the first time I saw them- 6/22/95 Cal Expo. So many emotional things were going on in my life that I was having trouble with. At the time music was my savior, and tonight rang truer than ever before. From the opening chords of Release to the last note of Yellow Ledbetter and everything in between I was locked in. It was the first (and I believe only) time I've ever been brought to tears at a show. Hearing that version of Ledbetter still does it to me sometimes. Thanks for this offer (about to post my own shortly) and thanks to Pearl Jam for an amazing 20 years. Can't wait for the next 20!

Hey,
Would have to be catching Ed's guitar pick one night then catching Mike's the next night back on the 2003 tour in Melbourne.
Cheers.

My favorite Pearl Jam moment was the first time that I listen the first Pearl Jam song 20 years ago.
