When you ask the guy at the rent a car place just to make sure that the car I'm getting has Sirius XM. Then my wife says "We are going to be listening to Pearl Jam radio all weekend aren't we?"

When your at a bar 100 miles from home and your wife says "Are you going to say hi to your friend over there?" And you say "What the hell are you talking about?" And she says "That chick has a stickman tattoo on her shoulder." And we end up hanging out talking about PJ20 all night.
Tonight was awesome.

You know you are a Pearl Jam fan when you are delaying setting a date for your wedding until they release the date of their PJ 20 weekend so you don't schedule your wedding for the same weekend.

'You know any Pearl Jam?'
I did exactly that this yr at a small bar we went to after our Xmas party. We were all pretty hammered. It was a chick singing, but I went right up to her and asked can you play any PJ, unfortunately she said no. My coworkers apparently said I muttered somethong along the lines that she is no good and we should go some place else

When you don't mind that your best friend in the world is attending a PJ show instead of coming to the hospital to see your newborn (because you'd do the same if the roles were reversed!)
You have a name for the illness you get EVERY time you follow the band, due to no sleep, too much drinking and screaming (The PJ Flu)
Whenever you ask for time off at work to go somewhere, you are asked if Pearl Jam is playing there
Oh yeah, when you see your co-worker Frank, you immediately start humming Dirty Frank
guilty of all the above. + when you live in england and get so excited that pj are touring the u.s .that you buy tickets for albany and hartford with no intention of spending any money,and before you know it your phoneing your friend to say were going to america

When you actually HAVE stole a Yield sign, after weeks of scouting out nice clean ones that aren't all bent up. And now it proudly hangs on your wall. And you're 29.
Oh, and you really really wish you had your original 10c number.
You start singing the "I will hold the candle..." part of Indifference when someone lights candles on a birthday cake.
Your sister gets jealous b/c the boy that wants to date her and you have a common interest in the band which she also likes but knows that you like more.
You get tingly when you see the MTV Unplugged version of Porch.
You get angry when you find out that boyfriend who wouldn't go with you to PJ shows in '03 stole your PJ cds for your sister to copy without asking but wouldn't go see the band live.
You compare all other hot celebrities to Eddie Vedder with him being #1.
You spend all your time looking at message boards on this website.
You listen to AET on gremmie.net.
You remember where you were and who you were with when you bought Live on 2 Legs and Yield (same day)
You watch entire movies that you don't want to hear the EV/PJ song at the end credits.
You spend time thinking up this list instead of doing things that need to be done.

i think this is what ed means when he says, "They don't seem to notice me, no"
1. You've cried to at least 1 PJ song in concert.
2. You have at least 1 PJ related tattoo
3. You've flown on a plane with soul intent to see them live.
4. You're friends with Dimitris on Facebook.
5. You've already built your funeral playlist with 95% PJ live stuff.
6. You know/can deceifer which drummer is playing on a live intro.
7. Your first song for your first dance of your wedding is a PJ song.
8. You know 2 or more lines from Yellow Ledbetter.
9. You've told your girlfriend to "drop the leash!".

all but 1
makes much more sense to live in the present tense
When your wife refers to Eddie Vedder as the man she shares her husband with....
When your 3 children (youngest 4) recognise any Pearl jam song that comes on are happy that is all the music Dad has in his car.
When your 8 year old twins are in tears when you didn't get them tickets to see EV solo tour as well. Sorry boys- too few tickets. Have promised him, that he can come to next PJ tour in Oz.
When get excited about hearing PJ on TV - in any show, like you are proud that they chose their song.

You bee-line towards PJ stuff in record stores, like pidgeon, although you are there for something else.
Even your friends are stoked for the Pearl Jam movie, cannot wait to see it. You are sure of it.
You are hiking in the hills, there is echo, and you are doing your best impression of Eddie's 'heeeee'.
You get a kick out of store mural on which someone that looks like Mike advertises car tyres.
You wish it was a little colder, so you can get that PJ jacket.
You are thinking of going camping somewhere on another continent. Last time you camped was with scouts.
When you name your dog Eddie Vedder and no one in your family blinks...
ha ha ha ha
my dogs called Eddie vedder ,vedder for short but its great when i take him out im always calling out EDDIE VEDDER its funny when some one comes up and asks if hes named after THE E.V i mean wot are they like. i also pop him into the local community fair i help run just to see peoples faces when the call out

you know how many times 'Arc' has been perfomed live
you know who played drums on 'Satan's Bed'
49 shows and counting....
And/or
Your dream of "hitting the lottery" consists of winning a seat in rows one or two to a concert and not winning millions of dollars.
Tonight was awesome.

so true
When you shuffle your songs on your iPod, and Pearl Jam comes up every 2nd song
When ordinary words like - pearl, jam, yield, even, wash, alive, Ten - set off a song in your head and you have to go listen to Pearl Jam
Whenever you see an "Eddie Stobart" truck, you smile because the name Eddie means a lot to you
You have a name for the illness you get EVERY time you follow the band, due to no sleep, too much drinking and screaming (The PJ Flu)
Whenever you ask for time off at work to go somewhere, you are asked if Pearl Jam is playing there

all but 1
-know which song you've seen live that is the most rare
(mine is "Mountain Song" at ACL 2009 played only once)
-have a PJ sticker on more then one thing you own
-memorized lyrics before a show to catch up on the new material
-written PJ song lyrics instead of taking notes in college
-skipped a nights sleep to drive to a show and be back at work the next day
-attended a midnight CD sale just to buy PJ
-dreamed of PJ radio WAY before it ever came out
