10c newbie here. Been a fan for what seems like a lifetime, but finally got life (and kids) to settle down enough to put energy into something for ME! There were several threads on here that practically held my hand through this process and I managed to get some seats for my first Pearl Jam concert!! Literally has been bucket list since I was 15. I may be touching the ceiling with my seats lol but I WILL BE THERE! Thank yall again :)

    Ha, finally hearing a song that you've been waiting so long for is a great feeling, and you get to feel it for EVERY song. I envy you.

    I hope you have a great time. Don't worry about seat location. I haven't cared about proximity to the stage since I was about 30 years old or so. Relax and enjoy the entire day of the concert.

    The whole day for sure! Wear a PJ shirt and walk around town. You’ll no doubt bump into other fans and have great conversation!

    Great conversation...for example:
    Me: "I see you are wearing a Pearl Jam shirt and walking around town"
    Person: "Yep"
    Me: "Are you going to the show"
    Person:  "Yep"
    Me:  "See you later"

    Kidding...  :)
