Is it just me or...when you are out and about do you ever wonder how many other jammers are in the same place you are? I do...especially when I am stopped at a traffic light and have PJ blaring on the stereo with the windows down...

I would totally say HEEELLLOOOO! ;)

Any one have stories where someone did say "hello" because you were blaring PJ or wearing a tee out in public? This could get interesting indeed... :mrgreen:
Lots of love, light and hugs to you all!

    Someone came into my store with a homemade EV shirt last week. I asked about it and we talked about the recent EV show.

    Not really PJ related but one time (in 1997) I was wearing a JIm Morrison t-shirt and a teenager asked me, "is that Marilyn Manson?"

    If I remember correctly I closed my eyes and rolled them and grumbled.

    The back of the shirt said LIGHT MY FIRE

    Not that that's a dead giveaway as to who it might be...

    Never meet them in south florida, BUT I was on the beach once with a group of about 10-15 friends/acquaintances, and a dude strolled up drinking beer (he turned out to be a friend of a friend), and a few minutes later he took off his shirt and had a big old stickman tattoo on his chest. I didnt want to run up to a guy and talk about his chest tattoo though.., but then he took off before I got a chance to say 'hey'.

    I always consider him the 'other Pj fan in south florida'. :D

    when i was working in a charity shop, a woman came and bought the stickman tee for £2. i was on the till and when i saw it, i said "i love this tshirt, great band."
    and she smiled politely and was like "yeah, they're good" and left.

    and then when i was at T in the Park
    i saw a guy wearing the stickman tee
    and (being more-than-slightly intoxicated) i ran up to him, getting right up in his face and personal space, and was like I LOVE YOUR TEEEESHIIIIRT!
    and he was like "Yeah, okay thanks :? " and his friend was so stoned he just stood there, nodding and laughing
    so then i was like "PEARL JAAAAAAM! CRAAAAZY!" :D
    and he said "PEARL JAAAAAAM!" :crazy: and then we were like "BEST BAND IN THE WOOORLD! CRAAAZY!" he started singing even flow but by then my friends wanted to go and so i had to leave.
    :roll:


    yeah, not very interesting but so far the only times i've ever met any pj fans.

    I saw a stickman sticker on the back of a pick up truck sometime last year in my small town, I was tempted to stand by the parked truck and wait for the owner... but that might have been a bit weird. Thats the closest I've got...

    Well I once saw a guy in an Italian restaurant with a No Code shirt, and once in the grocery store someone had a Binaural shirt. That's about it. Its a small town, and they mostly like Hinder and stuff like that.....

    Ok...I can officially say I ran into two PJ fans at the Toronto Zoo this past Friday...I was wearing my Analog tee and two different women, on two different occasions said "I love your shirt!" They had big grins on their faces!! It's cool to know we were are kind of in a secret club...I think we should have a secret handshake too... :lol:

    At least I knew there were 3 of us that were not attending PJ20 :(
    Lots of love, light and hugs to you all!
