Did Bonnaroo Spoil Me?

I'm a longtime fan who just got home from his first Pearl Jam show...at Bonnaroo. It was absolutely amazing. My brother who is not really a fan at all (he said he couldn't wait to hear Daughter on the way in) said it was the best show he's ever been too. I thought the same thing. The question I now have is how can future shows live up to this one? I'm glad my first PJ concert ended up with such an epic performance but I will have to wait and see if the band can ever top that. I really need them to come to my area so I can catch them again. I know it's a long shot but what are the chances they play Bonnaroo ever again? Next year? One can dream, right?

BTW, I got the Bonnaroo poster, the PJ poster and the red t-shirt with the poster design on it. Pretty pumped about that.
I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    Amazing show for your first one; remember all PJ shows have something special

    I was there for my 26th show (great rarities) but a couple neighbors told me they were disappointed at the "lack of old stuff" as first timers. :0)

    i went with a girl who only really knew Black and Betterman. I was so glad she got to see them play it. but she really loved it all.

    She has been converted.
