So, I'm back at 'home' in Sydney, in front of my computer, after leaving Amsterdam at 4pm on Sunday.

If the saying 'home is where the heart is' holds true, then this definitely isn't home. Now I've messaged a few already, but yeah, I got so depressed in Amsterdam what with being alone and separated from everyone, I just took no interest in the hookers and pot and porn and mushrooms and whathaveyou. Surely the first backpacker to go through the 'Dam without checking anything out.

The mullet is a softie. I really had a huge emotional investment across all the trip, having beers with everyone, chatting, meeting new people, and oh yeah, a few shows. I knew it was going to be hard saying goodbye- it always is. It was similar to my experiences last year after the Aussie tour, only this time I'm the one who's flying away from everyone. In Amsterdam, in Heathrow waiting for my flight, on the plane back... the thoughts were just so conflicted. I hate this place. I wanna leave. There's no one around me. I wanna get the fuck away from here. Just settle back into the work pattern already so I won't have to feel so shit. I don't wanna leave. Leaving means being on the other side of the world. Why does Australia have to be so friggin far away? I need to run away from Heathrow to find Sandra and Barbara. I need to jump on a plane to Trieste or something and find Sid instead of this damn flight to Sydney.

I don't feel being home at all. Home was the last 3 weeks, the most comfortable environment I've ever found myself in.

Breaking up with a girl is hard. Hmm. I just found my family, and tore myself away from my family after 3 short weeks. Breaking up with one person is hard? Try 40.

great post hinny...post pearl jam depression..ive got it too...crack open a beer...check out the great version of rats from dusseldorf on youtube....youll have some many great memories that will stay with you forever

I also feel the post PJ depression.
It's such an anti-climax to come home.

However, I do have some amazing memories.
& I met so many lovely people along the way.
So I guess I cannot complain.

Chin up Hinny, I'm sure everyone will be reunited soon enough, with any luck.

vedder_soup

we are all suffering it hinny, just a little harder for you being on the other side of the world!
we are all here for ya, and there are plenty of photos floating around to keep the memories fresh in the mind.
America will not know what has hit them when we all arrive next tour.
Touring Bus Ameria 08 here we come...

MISS YOU Hinny!!
Your posts are wonderful..

I know how you feel. really I do. and it sucks. I hate that feeling so much, but you know what? That will go away. I know you wanna be back over here, and youre always welcome, but now, you need some time with the *real* world as I like to put it that way. There is gonna be another tour, there are gonna eb TOURS and we will definitely all reunite. In the meantime, theres forums, facebook, msn, aim, and lots of wonderful memories to share with everyone that crosses our paths.
Youre not alone, were all in this together, we all miss Pearl Jam and probably the people even more, yes.
But the things mentioned above keep me going on and strong.
I didnt tell you, but that chat the other night before you left, totally made me feel better. a lot better, i felt like crap, and you were right there, I just wanted to talk to a friend that understands.

A huge hug coming your way all the way from Croatia
A virtual one, until i see you again.

Thank you so much, again, you showing up for this tour made it all so much more exciting. You can tell from this thread how you are the one everyone can always count on, feels safe around, and always have the best time - you have that everywhere you go Hinny, no one can take that away from you.

Till next time, the U.S., Europe or Oz again, keep the spirit of the mullet alive!!

Love,
Einat.

Hi Hinny

What to say man... it was great to meet you, first day in Munich...remember, you couldn't get your smile off the face.
Thank you for your support, thank you for your passion, thank you for being such good fan and friend for all of us.

Croatia is waiting for you next time my friend:D

Mmmmm, mullet heaven. I'm not so sure I'm too comfortable wearing that thing around natural mullets, though. There was one in Munich at the venue after the show and I just felt so awkward. The depression is gone. Now I'm just plain old sick :(

I'm definitely in for North America. I'm definitely in for whatever's next, really. Screw Philly Jason and his 100s of friends. I'm shooting for 1000s.
