    I hear there is a midnight marathon on that day in Alaska. I always thought that would be so cool to run a marathon or a half-marathon at midnight in the daylight. We could attend the concert and then run the marathon. Whew.... wouldn't that be some day!
    They actually start the marathon at a normal starting time (7:00 a.m., if I remember correctly), they just call it the Mayor's Midnight Sun Marathon. It is a great marathon..........I ran it and finished it in 1997.

    My wife and I are planning on visiting Alaska in 2007 whether Pearl Jam does or not.

    Please play the Last Frontier.

    Well, i'm not new to MSG however, I rarely post...but, i'm up here in ALaska too and there's atually lots of PJ fans here just from talkin to people and seeing stickers on peoples cars. We do get BIG names up here too(Don Henly, steve earl, ani difranco, aerosmith, godsmack, tool, etc....). I've talked to McCready twice in the last 4 years and he tells me that they will come up here and play. Last time I asked (7/20/06 Portland) if we needed a petetion? He laughed and said "no, we'll get up there". So, I continue to hold my breath as long as there's someone to give me CPR!

    I'd see a PJ show in Alaska...in summer though... I bet it's too friggin cold there in the winter...and this coming from a guy in Ottawa..cold here but I don't think as cold as there... Had a friend live there for 2 years and said a hot summer day was 20 degrees..(70F)...lol

    But really I'm just joking...just like some southerners think Canada has snow year round and we live in Igloos...hahaha

    ALASKA - is a wonderful venue and there are tons of pj fans there. I was up there in summer 2003 and Godsmack came to Fairbanks and tons of people came from all over the state. It was a huge deal and the people appreciated it so much.
    PEARL JAM has no idea what they are missing out on - I have never been to a more beautiful and peaceful place. A summer set of shows would allow for warm temperatures (contrary to belief it can get in the 80s and 90s) during the summer here and there is alot more daylight in the summer depending on what part of the state you live in.

    I love Alaska and if i was single - I 'd move there in a heartbeat!!!!!!!!!!

    There is no better place I could imagine PJ playing - and I would find a way to make it up there to see them.
