It totally sucks. Especially when you are traveling out of your province / country just to see your band at work. When it's all over & you have to go home to a small town .. It hurts, so fucking much. :(
Last fall I cured this ailment by getting myself to an additional show, with great effort. This year they are toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo far away for me to do that, which makes it even worse. Knowing the solution, but not being able to implement it :(
Oh, it's Bad !!! My shows are over and it's back to the real world. I've been off work for 11 days and it just pains my heart that I have to go back. I almost forgot I had to. My run ended with Moline and it was amazing in every way. You just spend so much time and thought during the months and days before the tour just waiting for it, and when it finally arrives, it's over in a flash and your left with great memories but you never want it to end. All I need is to win the lottery, so I can follow them around seeing the world and I would be happy forever. Until next time.... It's been great
My family won't let me even say a word for fear that I'm going to bring the conversation around to PJ on Friday night in Moline. Thank you for being here for me!
I still have Milwaukee to look forward to tomorrow but, I am getting slight depression because it has no chance of living up to what I witnessed in Moline Friday and Milwaukee is my last show this tour. Sad day tomorrow is
I am sitting at work. Bummed beyond belief that my shows are over for this tour and I am stuck just waiting for the next tour announcement so I can get my fix again. My wife and one kid are sick of hearing me talk about how great Moline was and I that I need to get a life. I told them I am the only one living because until you see Pearl Jam live, you have not lived.

I would give anything to have Milwaukee be my last show! It's already over for me. I feel your pain!
I was wondering why I was so blue at work today…must be reminiscing about Moline and knowing it will be a Long Road until I see them again! So glad to know that I am not the only one.

I feel that way after every PJ show, each show allows me to escape to a happier place. A bit of sadness comes when Alive is played, knowing the show is ending shortly.

More like Post Raleigh depression... I lost my favorite band
I'm still disappointed about Raleigh, not that any of us could do anything about the decision to cancel. I had a fun time at both shows and won't let the Raleigh cancellation ruin the experience I had in Greenville and Columbia.

I saw two shows and loved them both....... but since Columbia I've thought multiple times.... I need another pearl jam fix!
Me too. I found myself looking at the rest of the tour, figuring out when I could use vacation time, and wondering if I could score some tickets. Sadly, won't work out for me.
I find myself trying to cancel my Wrigley tickets so I don't have to see Rockin/Baba/Ylb to end another show.. I can't even listen to the who or neil sing those anymore, PJ has overplayed the shit out of them

Hey! I was reading through these old posts and thought for sure you'd have one more post after they once again out-did themselves for you and gave you Yield front to back...
