    Amsterdam has a nice space, and they have some good ideas for their own happy hours/use of music. It seems like the kind of place that might be receptive to your plans.

    Several other restaurants have been in that space over the years and for one reason or another they don't make it. I think Amsterdam has been going for a few years now and I'm crossing my fingers that downtown St. Paul in general is making a comeback.

    A few of us checked it out Friday and talked to the owner. It's perfect. We had all been there before our recon visit, but nonetheless, it is going to be awesome there.

    Did anyone get their St Paul tix in the mail from Ticketmaster yet?

    Mine came and I'm in Canada.

    Eleven years ago today was my first Pearl Jam concert.

    I had just graduated high school and was having "The Summer of Derek" before I was off to college. The Pearl Jam show was certainly the highlight of the summer and probably up to that point, the best concert I had seen. I went with my two best friends from high school, Nick and Libby Nelson. They are twins. Libby and I (and diddy) saw Pearl Jam in Atlanta in '012. Anyway, we were in the upper deck corner on Stone's side (didn't know what that meant at the time). We wasted time and didn't jump on tickets, and that's why I thought we ended up in the bleeders. I didn;t get a poster or a sticker. I wasn't aware that was something back then. I bought a shirt and had a blast rocking out. I didn't realize Pearl Jam had such a fanatic fanclub and people actually traveled to different cities to see the band. Just to see the band Oh, how young I was. The concert was amazing. Obviously. Of the Girl, Evenflow, Bushleaguer, Black, Leaving Here, Lukin, Yellow Ledbetter. I remember just being blown away that we were in the same room as this legendary voice and I was hearing it in person.

    When I think back about that concert now, I think about how special it is that this community is united by this band and one can search out and find people who were at the same show. Maybe for the first time. I doubt people talk about being at the same movie in the same theatre at the same time years later. But a "hey, I was at that show, too" seems to be a common statement made between us all.

    Cheers to us! Cheers to St. Paul 03! Cheers to Pearl Jam!

    Amazing show! I rolled a golf cart at a golf charity event and bought the golf cart right before the concert. I will never forget my 1st.
