    Duse, that was NOT directed at you!

    ...and...

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

    I know, it's all good man! Sorry if I came off as a dick ^, didn't mean to! I complain about the forum becoming a cesspool of negativity, yet I contribute to that at times. Let's get back to the positivity and good stuff! Life is great! Summer is not over yet, and the weather is beautiful in Minnesota. Plenty of reason to be PUMPY!

    Did you grab ahold of the P.A. system and say, "Pearl Jam: TargetField in 2014!!!"?

    I wonder where "Michael Benton" from the 2003 show is right now. Apparently, he was from Fargo.

    Michael, are you out there?

    Where were your seats?

    It was my first show. And because a friend of mine decided to sleep in and not wake up to buy tickets (I was working that Saturday morning), I was regulated to the upper deck, back left corner.

    We were in the 100 level, I believe section 103, probably 20 rows up, "Stone" side. I suppose I could check but I'd have to find my stub.

    10c did block seating that year, and we got floor r, probably right where the yellow/orange divider line is- i remember the walking path was right in front of us, so we had people going to and fro in front of us all show. we were taller dudes, so it wasn't a big deal.

    my favorite part of that show was opening with of the girl. getting your favorite song to open a hometown show was a great way to start the night. i also remember the wellstone sticker getting slapped onto jeff's bass, so whenever i see that sticker these days (it's still on there!) it brings me back.

    yer killin' me, smalls


    LUKIN
    Released: August 27, 1996
    COMPOSER: Vedder
    ARTIST: Pearl Jam
    Lyrics
    Drive down the street, can't find the keys to my own fucking home
    I take a walk, so I can curse my ass for being dumb
    I make a right after the arches, stinking grease and bone
    Stop at the supermarket, people stare like I'm a dog

    I'm goin' to Lukin's...
    I got a spot at Lukin's...
    I knock the door at Lukin's...
    Open the fridge, now I know life is worth

    I find the key, but I return to find an open door
    Some fucking freak who claims I fathered, by rape, her own son
    I find my wife, I call the cops, this day's work's never done
    The last I heard the freak was purchasing a fucking gun
