Hello :wave: Dont be sorry......Metallica will always be # 1 on my list too!!
Pearl Jam and Aerosmith are tied at #2 :P
That 'tie' will change. I like (old) Aerosmith too, but a year from now, hanging out here and listening to a bunch of bootlegs that will make you laugh, cry, smile and sigh, you are gonna be going 'AeroWHO'???
I think pretty much everyone here would agree with me when I say that this band does not just invade your head, like listening to the music of other bands does, however good they are.
This band invades your SOUL.
Well said!!
There are very, very few bands that can do that. Many can put out great music and are great technically....but being such a force that they invade your soul? That is not something that can be learned, or even faked, by any old band on the block. You either have it or you don't.
This band has it.

Memories back when she was smooth and strong
and waiting for the world to come along...
downloaded the song BREATH right bloody now, get Benaroya hall if you can for another side of the band, listen to the records chronologically and hear their development, ignore everything that PJ has to do with U2 as they suck, go see them live, go see EV solo, get the dvds, DONT START COLLECTING VINYL, DONT COLLECT POSTERS or you can say goodbye to that retirement/holiday home/holiday/new car/everything, realize that it's impossible to have a favorite album, tell people every day that ten is not all they have done and the other 18 years are just as important, watch everything on youtube, smile and be happy that the best band ever have entered your life and you are now stuck with them until the day you depart this earth, after not picking a favorite album work out that VS is their best album
Haha well thank you! I don't plan on purchasing vinyl or posters, as I'm not much of a memorabilia collector. Doesn't mean I won't be spending my "shoes and bags money" on PJ attire!
PJ has definitely made their way into my top 3 favorite bands of all time. Sorry, Metallica will always be #1 on my list. Perhaps they need to tour together
Welcome!!!
I also wasn't interested in memorabilia to begin with, but i caught the bug with posters and vinyl. It took me 16 years to catch it, but now there's no hope. STAY AWAY FROM VINYL
Yeah, I didn't care about memorabilia or merchandise either... until I did. The allure of posters and vinyl is hard to resist!! ... I'm not even gonna say stay away from it though. I just get too much pleasure from it to say that, even if I am broke!

itll start out as a gig poster for a show you were at/liked.... then the cascade.
Or it'll start when she gets her first holiday single and slide the disc out of the sleeve, lol.
I will say this....because I am a handbag fanatic (like seriously, I have a problem), I will be purchasing one of, if not both of the tote bags. But see, I'll use them so it's justified in my book. If I can't justify a purchase, I won't do it :nono:

I have extras of the black one, maybe the red, too. PM me and I'll be more than happy to send it your way!

Are you saying that you won't be playing your holiday single records? Can I have them? Extras are good for when I wear out my own someday. :geek:

Sure! I have the digital membership, do these singles come via email or regular mail?
Oh. Never mind (but thanks for saying yes, lol!). I was talking about the vinyl that you get with the analog membership boy. I actually don't even know if you get a digital version of the holiday single. actually. I don't think so but not sure.

if your membership is digital you will get the xmas single and the news letter on .mp3 file and .pdf file respectively... and if you are insterested you can get 3 of the previous xmas singles, the record is for free, you just pay for shipping, in some occasion more previous xmas singles show up, and the 2010 xmas single may show up soon as well...
... I am not in the business of being liked anymore ...

I just received the 3 Xmas singles,very cool vinyls,and just shipping is good deal.......going to cost me a lot more in the long run though as I have now realized I'm probably going to need to upgrade my 20 year old house stereo,which was probably the last time I spun anything

Hi! New here (be gentle!). I've always liked PJ throughout the years. I've always had a lot of respect and admiration for Eddie Vedder (for his WM3 support). However, I watched PJ20 when it came out and I've since become a superfan. This band is absolutely amazing in every sense of the word. They've never compromised who they were for popularity or money. It's one of those "where the hell have I been?" type of things. I've been listening to them pretty much non-stop for months now. I don't like Pearl Jam now...I LOVE them.
I came onto the forums, peeked around a bit for about a week and saw how dedicated and awesome you guys are. I was part of the Metallica "MetClub" for years and I thought they had some tight fans. You guys beat them by a loooooong shot. Hope to get to know everyone here!

love reading stuff like this. Metallica is my 2nd fav probably behind PJ. I would recommend you come to atlanta and see them but I think you'd rather see them at one of their own shows
Welcome Lisa!! I believe that you will find that the people here (for the most part) are a reflection of the band, thought-provoking, generous, supportive, insightful, motivating...etc
Pearl Jam gives us so much, and the people here reflect that!!
Hope you enjoy your time here and get infected with the best disease mankind has to offer!!
Cheers,
Barger
Seen the Best Rock Band on the Planet a few times here and there.

If you became a superfan without seeing them live, just wait until you catch a show!

Don't be afraid if pearl jam starts taking over your life, it's completely normal.
