    When you're actually from South Africa and know that they may never tour in your country so you travel to Australia to see your sister, uncle and cousins and plan these trips to coincide with PJ tours down under! Also travelling to Argentina in November to see 1 show in South America as I don't have enough leave/money to take in the other countries! Next in line....Eddie in Europe and PJ in Aus in late 2012 or in 2013... :roll:

    -When you are only allowed only 2 sentences in relation to Pearl Jam, Eddie or anything else related to that subject by your family.
    -When you walk up to your manager and say "can I ask you something" and she replies, "why do I think this is in reference to something involving Eddie Vedder".
    -When every room of your home has some piece of PJ memorabilia in it, except for the bathroom.
    -When you build your vacations around a show (s).
    -When you have a friend that has those magnetic letters you instantly phrase them into pearl jam songs.
    When you refer to your pearl jam family as (jamily).

    ME: ' You could say that, it's for a Pearl Jam concert, THE Pearl Jam concert'
    BOSS: "but the day is full and you're not scheduled off"
    ME: 'yeah, I know, that's why I'm telling you...want me to bring you a shirt?'

    All your grade 12 yearbook quotes are Pearl Jam lyrics.

    Having to ask Eddie that Stone sang Mankind just so that a friend would believe me when he said I was crazy. (Yes this actually happened in 2000)

    ^You meet Eddie Vedder randomly while he is on vacation and you are wearing a Pearl Jam shirt.

    All your high school material is either covered with Pearl Jam pics or has Pearl Jam lyrics written all over...
    You can find a quote from a Pearl Jam song to each philosophical question someone asks you...

    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.



    I had something like this happen in May. I was in Hilton Head and a guy at the bar had a PJ20 tshirt on.. I went over and we chatted before I had to leave.

    When you tell your boss you need vacation days and the first question they have is "where is pearl jam playing"

    Or your boss calls you from a satelittle office in Nashville to tell you there is a magazine with Pearl Jam on the front and do I want him to bring it to me.. uhh.. hello yes of course.

    You hear a lyric you've heard a million times and it resonates like the first time ...
    got a car...got some gas...oh let's get out of here-get out of here fast...
    I hope you get this message but your not home...I will be there in just a minute or so...
    I want to go but I want to go with you.

    Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime. -MT

    I've had enough, said enough, felt enough. I'm fine, still in it.
