    Are you from Texas?

    I was surprised to see them around still. Great band, but with only a couple of albums, hard to remember them sometimes (law of averages I guess). They played in north Houston a while back. Tickets were 'spensive. Woulda gone though....but for the long arse drive from the south side of town

    Funny, I am flying cross country three times this year for PJ, but I wouldnt drive across town for the Toadies. Guess PJ above all for me as well

    I go through phases with other bands but they come and go. Pearl Jam never goes.

    Sometimes I think I do.

    Pearl Jam is it for me.

    Up until the LB tour, I had seen Rush live exactly once more than PJ. However, I don't have near the amount of Rush stuff as I do PJ. Got all the studio albums on CD and a few on vinyl, which pales in comparison to my PJ collection (which, in turn, pales in comparison to a lot of folks PJ collections here!)

    Great question.

    Used to be U2 but over the past 4-5 years Pearl Jam reigns supreme.

    Fore, bands like Oasis and Radiohead deserve mention but will never dethrone PJ.

    No, and it's not close, haha. I would never consider traveling to see another band or see another bad multiple times in a year or two, let alone multiple times in the same week. I'll occasionally play random stuff from iTunes or pop on a vinyl from another band in the rock genre, but it's easily 95% Pearl Jam. In fact I get more from other bands from what Sirius/XM Pearl Jam Radio plays than I do on my own.

    I know there's a great world of other music out there, but the heart wants what it wants, haha.
