    This is not the place to seek your fix my friend, this is a place for help. Put the credit card down and slowly back away...come on....you can do it....:D

    AWESOME THREAD!

    I too have a problem collecting posters and can't stop. I can't remember my first one, but it started with:

    Minneapolis 98
    Oakland 97 S/N
    Live on two legs Kozik 98 S/N

    all of which I obtained for the lowest price after their original price. I am very proud of that.

    Then, on to:

    All the 03 posters of the shows I attended
    All the VFC posters (including the war bird) -3 from the NEOCON series (I don't even know what 3 I am missing. Their all over the f ing place)
    All the 06 shows I attended

    And the ones I didn't:

    DC
    Dusseldorf
    And many more

    All the Eddie solo posters

    Too many to list. Get the picture. It's a problem and that's just Pearl Jam. I collect other bands too, but not extensively.

    I can't stop. Next is the Eddie East coast tour.

    My girlfriend says I have a house under my bed (meaning if I sold them I could probably buy a nice place).

    It's out of hand to the point that I realize I have a problem and want to minimize the whole collecting thing all together. The real issue is that I am somewhere missing something from within and filling the void with this collecting obsession.

    We only buy posters of shows we have attended. We can even buy only the first show's poster if the second is just a different color; like Seattle 2002. Even with this restraint we have a bunch that are not even on the walls.

    Just. Say. No.

    Jamily Posters are stupid. Ed and his entourage are drinking Grey Goose & laughing all the way to the bank.

    I was wondering how long it would take for you to find this and make ths response....Fully EXPECTED and WELCOMED all at the same time....Sit, pop open a Natty Light and show us your ways. Show us how you can "just say no" to this addctive acid paper we seek! ;)

    I HATE THIS FUCKING economy. I hate seeing good people having to give up something like that to make the bills even if you didnt like it..sucks that you couldnt have traded it for something you DID like......Sorry about that...:(

    Thats shit, sorry to hear :( I think it really puts things in perspective when we get pissed off about missing out on posters etc, at the end of the day as long as we can pay the bills and feed our families then thats all that matters. And "we're" the ones who put politicians in charge of our countries :rolleyes:

    Be strong ;)

    I felt bad for you, King, until that last statement. If it wasn't for Ames Bros and some of the cool-ass posters from the 90's, there would be no PJ posters.
    Hell, I still feel bad for you, but what an ignorant comment.

    Mine first started with the Edmonton 05 that sennin sold me. It had creases that I knew of to begin with so then I searched for a poster without creases and after getting each beatiful tube case and looking forward to the gem that was inside, I just cant stop.
    My lady doesnt like it but appreciates it.

    Very true...sad....but true...I'm in the same boat now with the NY II coming out tomorrow.
    It's funny when things change so much
    It's all state of mind

    Don't sweat the small stuff and it's all small stuff

    You think you hate it now, wait till you drive it...

    Kids, you tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is, never try.
