    No one else mentioned the albums:
    1. Ten
    2. Vs.
    3. Vitalogy
    4. No Code
    5. Yield
    6. Binaural
    7. Riot Act
    8. Pearl Jam
    9. Backspacer
    10. ???

    Bootlegs for every show since 2000.

    Taping and trading freely.

    Fan friendly products like deluxe album releases, Cameron Crowe movies, and cool 10C gear.

    Sharing the stage with nearly all of their forerunners. Passionate covers.

    Awesome 10C community that share experiences and swap merch.

    I could go on and on, but you'll have to wait until next Tuesday (can we bury that phrase yet?). :lol:

    Driving home in the rain with You Are playing on repeat. The drive was supposed to take around 20 mins, I ended up circling the town for hour and a half listening to Riot Act. Best times! Dark, rain, car, PJ! <3:)

    Riot Act is very much a dark, rainy album. Having been to Croatia, I can picture it now! "Yooooouu aaare, you aaare" and then the sweet robotic sounding guitar comes in...

    Awesome!

    Having one of my students come up to me and say "I heard Pearl Jam last night/this morning and it made me think of you" OR even better -

    I had former students contact me to ask if I was going to PJ20 because they were going and they wanted to buy me a drink as a thank you for introducing them to the band! That was a great weekend!
    Peace, Love, Pearl Jam

    I usually try to have only positive things to say most of the time and really love this thread! I don't think there is a single pj song I don't love but lately Black has really been speaking to me. Especially the version on Benny has me completely f*cking breathless. For many years I skipped over Black bc it was too painful to hear. I just couldn't handle the emotionality of it as this brought back terribly painful memories of loss from my own life back in the early '90s. Now I hear it and it heals me all in the span of 7 to 8 minutes. It's like my heart gets ripped out and put neatly back in again every time I hear it. I have no doubt that Black is a masterpiece in every way. Thx pj for such a beautiful gift. I love you Black!!!

    Peace to all who love pj (and everyone else too!)

    BUMP for South America shows. I won't be able to attend, but invariably, I always buy bootlegs from South American shows (I have both audio and video shhh ;) ), and I am always amazed at the energy and enthusiasm of the South American kids. It's very impressive and uplifting to see and hear.

    So yeah...as my good friend/fellow poster JimmyV once said, "Pearl Jam shows anywhere are a good thing." Amen on that.

    Happy for South America, and hoping that some day I'll get to ride that wave down there with you guys! :)

    I like following these too. The setlist wasn't anything outrageous, but can you imagine having been there in that setup? When was the last time they played such a small arena? I was lucky enough to get to see Amsterdam I and II, but I can't help be a little jealous of Missoula.

    Meeting fellow PJ 10c members in line in ATL before the gates opened - perfect strangers but formed our own group on the trail and looking out for each other. Rocking and partying the whole time, sharing memories, talking PJ, guessing the opener and what songs we want to hear. Great stuff when a band can make people unite with one common purpose.
