    There are PJ fans under 25?

    I hope you're joking

    Yes, it's hard to believe, but us young people like good music too!

    This thread has been dead for some years now, but I was wondering about it. I'm 18 and I hardly know anyone my age who likes PJ.

    I'm 25. I started listening to Pearl Jam when my grandmother gave me "Live At The Gorge" as a birthday present when it came out.
    One day after I got 20 in 2009 I saw them in Berlin for the first time.
    And the rest is history...haha

    Ohh awesome, I wish I had a granny like that!
    I bought my first PJ record when I was 15 or 16… but I didn't see them live until last wednesday which was soo amazing :)

    I don't think so. I don't have anymore holidays. I hope they'll soon come to Europe again!

    Yeah me too.. There are so many european countries they didn't play in at all, so hopefully they will return soon!

    I'm 21 now but I got on board in 08 so I guess I was 15 or 16, saw them in Philly when I was 17, been to 5 shows total now and this fall it will be 6. Really wish there was more young fans around.

    Yeah same, that would be nice. It's a pity that so many young people don't even know who PJ are, I bet many would really like them.

  • I'm 25 and Cincy this fall will make 24 shows. Not sure if I would be considered "young" for this thread, but I'm definitely young considering the age range of PJ fans.

    I've only seen 5 shows in my own state and have now been to 3 other countries. I've gone much further (in terms of both # of shows and the distances I've traveled) than I ever thought I would when I saw my first show, which was coincidentally 6 years ago tonight.

    Glad to see that fans much younger than me are still getting into the band and travelling to see shows.

    okaay....
    lol
    and just to add I'm a pretty diehard fan, my friends say my obsession is unhealthy haha

    Lol. I'm old, but I'll chime in say that I think this is the healthiest obsession out there! :)

    Great to see some younger people in the fan club (like under 26... and hopefully above 10). I don't like being surrounded by just middle aged people at concerts, lol. Crowds with a good mix of young energy are more fun!

    Awesome to see so many people listening to great music, at an early age.
    That's all I can really say, cause I'm too old for this thread. :)
