Introductions

edited December 2011 in The Porch
I thought I'd introduce myself to you all because, in the words of Bill Callahan, I'm new here, relatively speaking.

I've been a huge PJ fan, without being obsessive, for about 20 years now (yes, I'm that old), in fact I'm a general music obsessive, but just recently decided to join your exalted company, to be honest the price tag of joining the 10c put me off for ages, and I was never into 'fan clubs'. I'm so glad now that I decided to take the plunge, and am now part of the PJ community. I actually only joined to cut down on the stress of trying to get tickets and didn't plan on taking part in the forums, but couldn't help joining in after reading some of them.

Anyway, I just thought I'd say Hi, and thanks for making me feel welcome.

    Welcome home! My story was the same as yours....fan forever, but joined mainly for tickets. Now I spend WAY too much time here reading and commenting. It's addictive.
    It's nice to be nice to the nice.

    I think many people share your story.. but now that you've been sucked in, just watch your post count rise. Loved ones may begin worrying; warn them now.

    Yay another Newbie like myself!!!! :D:D

    Welcome!!
    The thing I like most about time is that it's not real. It's all in the head. Sure, it's a useful trick to use if you want to meet someone at a specific place in the universe and have tea or coffee- but that's all it is- a trick. There is no such thing as the past. It exists only in the memory. There is no such thing as the future. It exists only in our imagination. If our watches were truly accurate, the only thing they would ever say is "Now". That's what time it is. It's "Now". - Damien Echols

    To be a true member you need to achieve posting a Philly 09 thread avoiding Evacuation Rules highly sensitive radar for at least one page... ;)

    welcome, and I must say my story is similar, been a fan from the start, joined the ten club in 98 mainly for the 7" single, not interested that much in tees posters and stuff, and concerts in Buenos Aires were daydreaming at the time, could not renew in 2001, back in 2006 for the same reason, after the Buenos Aires concerts, it slipped my mind joining when I knew about the concerts, I would have make it for the soundcheck, anyway, I'm kind of new as well, since I've just started writing posts last September, not even read the forum the years before...

    I am a music fan/collector as well, not only Pearl Jam, that's probably why I'm completely broke...

    Last but definitely not least, this is a one way ticket, once you get on, you are doomed... enjoy!!!
    ... I am not in the business of being liked anymore ...

    Welcome! I think I am actually newer than you, so I don't know if I can offer a proper welcome, but you get one with an exclamation point, so that will have to do you.
    Don't it make you smile?
    I MISS YOU ALREDDIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
