    These were just magical shows.  I miss them very much.
  • Pearl Jam could put out an entire album of Bridge songs and it would sell out in 5 seconds.

    That would work out amazingly well.  Bridge shows vary between 30 and 45 minutes for a set?   That seems pretty easy to put a single Bridge performance on a single record.   Boxset of Bridge School performances :) Vault 12. Lets do it :)

  •  i used to play a vhs tape of Pearl Jam at the BSB (?'99?)((Tom Waits included)) over& over that i had purchased from a record store a long time ago. was really fun to play guitar along with... back in the dinosaur days.

    Missed the first, but made the Roger Waters final. Many many in-between.  Only missed 2003 for Pearl Jam. Front row 1996. Totally agree about magical. Simple magic, slowed down, relaxing. Nice to see all the love. Took years for people not local to realize how special. I think there could be another. Why not?

    And I would most certainly be up for any new release PJ related. They could do an album of BSB debuts.
