    I’m 43, married, no kids. 

    My first Pearl Jam show I was 18. 

    There isn’t a single thing I’ve seen or done in my life that feels as good as being part of a Pearl Jam show. 

    You truly help build the intensity with whatever energy you bring in. 

    A PJ show is consistently the best feeling on earth.

    Help Eddie stoke the fire and don’t fuck it up!

    That's how I feel.  Pretty much the same situation.  First real show was when I was 20.. now it's 20 years later and going to a PJ show is still my most favourite thing to do.  Nothing quite like it.   I love going to other shows, but obviously I hold them all up against a pretty high bar :)

    Don't drink too much, lest you spend all that time in the bathroom during the show!

    This thread applies to me to. While I'm an obsessed fan, I haven't been able to see a show until this summer at Wrigley!

    Can't. Freaking. Wait.

    Hello all!  Does anyone know when Ten Club tells you where your drawing tickets are located?  Also, where can I find where the pre concert parties for the Chicago and Boston shows are on the Wishlist?  Thank you!
    They will be sent to your mobile phone in early July and I believe the preparties are still be organized. 
    Thank you very much PJNB!
