    I think I'm the oldest here, so far. 58. Loved the band since Ten, but my first show was on my 50th birthday.
    I'm amazed at people that went to both the Gorge and Vancouver 2005 concerts! :shock: That's quite a drive after a concert.
    I did that, and drove back to the Gorge again the day after Vancouver for Tom Petty. What a great weekend that was. PJ at the Gorge, PJ in Vancouver, and Tom Petty at the Gorge, all in 3 days. :ugeek:

    I am sure this goes without saying ...........
    but there are so many great things about being an "Old" Pearl Jam Fan

    A few for me would be:

    *My member number.
    *The joy I have when I look at the list of shows I've been to.
    *Having Mike's wife notice a poster I made and everyone sign it without asking!
    *My T Shirt Collection.
    *Being 33 and able to take my 16 and 13 yr old sons to both the west / east coast Eddie Vedder along with several Pearl Jam shows this summer. Best trips we have taken.
    *Having a taped copy of MTV Unplugged complete with Sega Genesis and AT&T 10 Cents a minute commercials Staring Murphy Brown. < that makes me feel the oldest
    *Smile Cleveland 06
    *Catching Matt's Drum Stick

    New Fans - Old Fans there isn’t a group of guys better ALL their fan than PEARL JAM

    :lol:

    37 going on 27. hella good age...27 that is!!!
    I love to turn you on
  • Hey, I am 38 years old, saw PJ for the first time in 1992 at the age of 21 and been rockin' with them ever since! I think I have had more time to appreciate the band for all their works as they got released, not playing catch up since riot act. Any PJ fan rocks, we just do it smarter!

    34. The 2006 tour was the first time I looked around and it seemed like I was an 'older' fan. Felt like it too after the show. :o
