I have to say, it's amazing to actually be somewhere where people are as excited as me about this. Other people just don't understand. Everyone's like "oh, cool. Have fun." and i'm like "BUT THIS IS PEARL JAM! I WON THESE TICKETS. PEARL JAM! SMALL GIG! PEARL JAM!" And i get blank stares

Lol ok but how are ya to recognise anyone if ya don't know what they're doing?

Cos it'll be something obvious to PJ fans. I think you'd be able to tell if someone was dressed as a bug.... or the bee girl...(my ideas, no one's allowed steal them!)

What are you gonna wear???

See now, I'm digging a hole for myself that I really don't want to get stuck in....

Oh still have to arrange to meet you in departures anyway - presume you're going from Dublin right???

Yup. PM mobile # or something?

Sorry if this has already been posted, but just found out there is no support act... potentially a long night for us all!

you make a very good point here. i fear out inadequate attempts might offend jeff.

scrap that one.

I have one hat in my collection that may pass the Jeff test.

I've been wearing it all winter to keep the old ears warm when walking along the south bank of the thames.

Keep getting told it's 'nice' accompanied by the look that says 'that someone dares to wear it':o

Has anyone been to that pub before? looks quite nice!

i've been a couple of times before gigs... it's in spitting distance of the astoria and they also have a couple of seats outside so we can monitor the queue...

i keep saying to everyone around me 'GUESS WHAT!?!'
they sigh and say 'you're going to see pearl jam?'... i shout 'YES!!' and jump around stupidly.

You're not the only one!!! I think I officially have NO friends left but who needs friends when you have an Astoria ticket???

we're all the same...
people don't even talk to me, i just get this weird look that says "whatever you do, don't mention pearl jam at the astoria"

that's true! Whenever i enter the room now, a silence takes over...they all look at each other as if to say "don't mention it under any circumstances"! i feel so alone here!

I think what i'm gonna do, is get a red white and blue sweat band from ebay (thanks for the link) and wear that. I will probably also closer to the time tell you all what i'll be wearing and post another picture of me so you can all see me and say "Jeez another crazy Pearl Jam fan over there!"

I'm a bit of a technophobe so that would involve me having to actually work out how to get the photos off my digital camera and onto the computer

If I manage to get off work early and meet you guys at the George I promise to bring my hat so the group can determine whether it could possibly pass as a Jeff hat and so that it can be photographed and added to the thread :cool:
