    My first poster from the first show I attended (long story there). Since then I picked up the posters from Alpine. I have decided to limit myself to shows I have been to. Lets see if that sticks or not.

    Yeah :D The Merriweather gig in Columbia Maryland that was your first show was the day before the Constitution Hall show in Washington DC that was mine (9/18/98 & 9/19/98), I should have let you post before me :lol:

    I wanted to go THAT show SO bad! Everyone was talking about it at Merriweather and most of them were going so it didn't feel right that I had to go home. In the end, I didn't get to go, you're LUCKY!! :mrgreen:

    This poster was my first show. I didn't pick up the poster. I bought the shirt instead. However, I tracked down a s/n version of the poster late last year and it was worth the small fortune I paid for it.

    This is mine as well and I also didn't buy it at the show. It is the only poster missing from my shows attended collection.

    I just wish I wasn't 18 then otherwise I'd still have it.

    First real poster was Randall's Island 1996. This was also lost at some point in my life and is the one item I really want again, my holy grail as it were. Maybe someday I will get it.

    That's how I started my collection as well but that didn't last long! Too many amazing posters to limit myself to only the shows I've been to. My wife wishes that I had though! :lol:

    I was 13 and went with good friend of mine and his mother who is very influential in Pro Choice circles in Washington as a present for my 13th birthday. You are really lucky to have seen Pearl Jam at MPP. I saw them there in 2000 and the venue/acoustics are amazing compared to the other outdoor venue in the Washington area "Nissan needs a trip to Jiffy Lube" cus you spend the entire show in traffic and the acoustics are some of the worst in America. I have the boot from 9/18/98 it was an awesome show and the king kong poster is awesome!!!

    My first show was at the Showbox in Seattle back in 2003. The poster was a demon dancing! It was probably the best poster I've ever seen. I bought two, and I think it is still back in Seattle with a friend!

    BTW, what show is that poster of the reaper from? I only collect from the shows I've been to, but may make an exception for that one. KILLER!!

    '95 Summer Shows poster. Always bugs me that is says "Bad Religion" instead of "Ramones." A well spent 5 bucks though.
    This show, another show, a show here and a show there.

    Mine was Sydney 1998... took me until 2 years ago and $400 to get the poster, but worth it! Would love the South Pacific Tour poster from that tour in good condition if anyone has it! Bought it but it was lost years ago.

    Not my first ever concert, but my first Pearl Jam concert : Cleveland 1994. I was fortunate to aquire this holy grail this past year.

    PearlJamPosters001-2.jpg



    Unfortunatly no known prints for my 2nd PJ show in Toronto 1996.


    The Cleveland 1998 was also aquired this past year as I passed on it at the beginning of the show & it was sold out by the end.

    The Cleveland 2010 was the first poster I actually purchased at the show !
