    How much fun would it be if they did one or two of these a year? Including Europe and South America, is there a big enough venue to do it over in Europe? I would go to each one just to hang with the few people I met in Alpine. That was something very special we witnessed there in those mountains.
    For Real!!!
    One big party in Amsterdam and in Rio sounds fun to me!!

    Beats trying to plan this European tour this sux I don't were to stay or how to get around. :?
    until next time......

    I carry my wristbands around in the 'secret' compartment of my purse for luck.

    My absolute favorite sweater is this cheap cotton thing from a Walmart that I bought when we were on the way to the venue for night 2.

    I have the unofficial boots and a studio play list to match on my ipod

    Alpine still (and always will) makes me smile.... :D

  • Great post, great reminder of one of the best weekends of my life.
    I had dinner last night with the friends I went with to Alpine Valley. We talked A TON about that weekend. It was our reminder of just how awesome we are for having made the trip. Just an epic weekend, an epic show with epic people.
    And winning 10c lottery seats didn't hurt either!!

    Yea, I want to see PJ in 2012 but I'm sort of hoping the tweet today is about boots and DVD's from Alpine Valley 2011.
  • best weekend ever..

    Nice idea but would never work, if it happened every year you wouldn't find nearly as many people coming from around the world and it would lose it's shiny-ness and atmosphere
    I don't mean to offend anyone, a lot of what I say should be taken with a grain of salt... that said for most of you I'm a stranger on a computer on the other side of the world, don't give me that sort of power!
  • what en epic weekend that was...

    i don't think they can do it again because nothing could ever touch the significance of the first one. to me it is like the subsequent versions of woodstock...1969 awesome, 1994 alright, 1999 sucked ass...

    i do wish i could go back there and spend a little more time with the quality people that i met that weekend..

    It's a ski hill not a mountain and yup it was fun. :) Glad you all had a great time in East Troy. :mrgreen:
  • Wish I could repeat this weekend everyday!! I had great seats the first night, but I was on the 10C lawn the second night and it was fucking unreal! It was first 'real' time experiencing a show with other 10C members and it just totally blew me away. I've never felt so connected, at peace and just plain happy! The entire weekend blew me away, musically and otherwise. i can't wait for more of these moments.

    thank you SO MUCH eddie, mike, jeff, stone, matt, chris, glen, liam, john, joseph, BOOM, and absolutely everyone I met, put this thing together and lived it!

    pearl jam---thank you x10000000000 for (continually!) bringing so much happiness into my life.

    Not duplicated but some things do get better. I remember thinking PJ10 in Vegas was amazing, Foo Fighters then PJ10 in the same night!! Then came Alpine and blew Vegas away. I wonder if the next anniversary will be PJ25 or PJ30? None of us are getting any younger and every 5 years for a destination weekend seems reasonable. ;)
