    Agree, awesome review and also agree with the cell phone reception! Bad! Only bad thing I can say about the weekend though! :)

    Just got back from San Francisco after going to PJ20. Let me just say, TOTALLY AMAZING!!!!!!!!
    Not only were Pearl Jam fantastic as per usual, Chris was brilliant and the Ten Club members that I met were some of the nicest folks I have ever met.

    I met GiventoLukinKP (Kelly) and Dwhite (Don) who were such nice people, I thoroughly enjoyed getting to meet you guys, thanks for making PJ20 that much more special for us. :D
    I also could have sworn I saw you Appie, near the shuttle bus in Chicago??? Did you take the shuttle??

    The vibe there was so great. People were tolerant of one another, as far as I could see, and it seemed like most people knew just how special it was to be there.

    Your country was absolutely beautiful guys, thanks so much for sharing it with us Aussie folks and those from all over the world. :)

    To bad i missed you and your hubbie too.. :(:( And i was taking the shuttle,i did know you were on it cause Kelly told me and then we do miss eachother..I enjoyed it in The States also,tommorow evening i fly back with a thoussand ton of great memmories with me of this awesome trip i had...The vibe amongst the people i feld deeply and that was given me cold chills of happyness at times...Jeezzz if we all have control over the world it would be a place of total peace..Sometimes i wonder why just for a weekend? Next year i will return with all the love i have in me for the Usa now.. :D:D

    A week ago today thousands upon thousands of us were arriving in Alpine Valley, having an idea of what to expect but having no idea what was truly in store for us. My heart has been reinvigorated for this band, after two decades of unwavering devotion. What an incredible weekend. It was so great to meet so many of you and share such a monumental event.

    Does it seem to anyone else like it's only been a few hours, rather than a full week? With all these thick-headed 'Nevar Forget, Y'all!' attitudes around the 10th anniversary of 9/11 rapaciously & superficially sensationalizing the horrible tragedy, I take some solace from the madness in the crystal clear memories I have of last weekend. I look forward to the years of looking back & feeling a sense of exhilaration when I relive these moments.

    I spent all week writing a review of the weekend - here it is if you like. Tons of great pics too.

    Stumbled on it from someone's link on fb and love the review !! :thumbup: And you're right, it seems it's only been a few hours, it feels as though I'm still in East Troy and there's a show tonight :(
    Upon reading it, I couldn't help singing "so glad you made it " ;) . Wish we could have met !
