Does anyone remember being in Pearl Jam chat rooms in 1995-1996? I do, and my screen name was Yippee.
Just wondered if anyone else was there
Man thats such a Flashback!! It hardly ever worked properly. Or maybe it was just me. I think it was about'98 when i was on there

I was 3 or 4 years old When did the internet first become commercial that chat rooms were already big at that time?!
I saw my first chat room when I was a freshman in college in '94. It was bizarre to me.
I started using the EFnet IRC server back in 95 and was on #PearlJam a lot for about 2 years. I remember names like: Dissident, Goktepe, ^PunkGrl^, Mosquito, Merkinball and lots of others.
As a side note: chat rooms made me a REALLY fast typer.

Hmmm, I am wondering if he's the dude that sent me the bootlegs...[/quote]
very well could have been him. I traded with him a bunch back in the day. Maxell XLII's, baby![/quote]
Yup I also got a stack of lyrics printed out on copier paper, they are so old school looking. I still have them. The front page spells Pearl Jam with the "P"made of a bunch of tiny p's and so on. I think the same guy sent it ti me but I can't be sure.

I passed around a TON of Pearl Jam bootlegs back in the day... I made lists of EVERYTHING I needed, had, songs I needed... Some dude named Ben C. helped me out the most... I used to send out like 10 tapes a day, mixed tapes, people send me cash for blanks and postage, I'd hook up some PJ they have never heard...ahh, the good ole days... Prodigy message boards
and I was Merkinbal (1 "l" because the other was too long of a name)
except when I would /nick PaStAfRoG when Brian would join.
/ping
/j #pearljam
always fun.
This ping talk makes me remember sending people messages and then 'fingering' their account to see if they'd gotten the message~ am I remembering this correctly? That was a very foggy time of my life

Were you in the Porch chat room on the night of the Monkeywrench Radio broadcast? AOL was bogging so bad. IIRC there was a Michael Jackson event on AOL that night.

I was not, I was too busy on IRC's efnet #pearljam channel converting my tape recordings to mp3 from the studio album that 92.3 KRock in NYC premiered (first 5 songs from yield) and then dcc sending them over to a certain someone for him to host on his university of syracuse web server......I think that may have ended slightly poorly for him, but boy did mp3's take off from there.

Some kind soul mailed some bootlegs to me, I can't remember his name tho. I think there was a fair amount of swapping going on...

I can remember the dates of all 37 PJ shows I have been to. Remembering "Goktepe" is easy
Besides: I have him on my IM list. Heh.

I went through 2 dvd burners making copies of PJ dvd's, I haven't done a B&P in years.
