Hey everyone, as my first post on here I thought of a cool topic that might get a good response.

My question is how far are some people driving/flying/skateboarding/riding a horse to see Pearl Jam on this tour?

Im sure some of you have me beat, but anyway, I live in St. Louis and to my dis-belief PJ is not coming here on this tour. So, my girlfriend and I decided to get tickets to the show in Cincinnati for the show on June 24th. We are planning on driving there which will take about 6 hours to get ther and 6 hours to get home. total time = 12 hours.

I cant wait for this show, IM STOKED!!!!!!

    since the 2000 boot, I've always wanted to see them in Portugal. My husband is Portuguese, so for my 50th birthday celebration (2 months early) we are seeing both shows in Lisbon.

    Also, it is general admission and I have hopes of getting closer than my sucky 10c number would ever get me.
