    My best find was in 2000 when Nader had the support of PJ. I ordered a signed by Ed version of Vitalogy, from the campaign. However, they sold it twice, so they sent me No Code vinyl, Yield vinyl, light years single, and binaural CD all signed by Ed as an apology. The best mistake in my favor ever.

    Not a big find but got a 1991 christmas single at Easy street for 60 bucks. The cheapest I have ever seen it.

    E-mail them saying which one(s) you want.
    I thinkt he two dollars is for shipping, or they might make you pay shipping, I can't remember.

    Umm. Yeah you can get Christmas singles from the 10c for a few bucks, but the 1991 single is long gone. I think the earliest singles they still have is 1998 or so.

    I won a Live at Easy Street poster signed by Klausen. I think they put my name in a drawing for pre-ordering it or something. Came with a note from Easy Street.

    Other than that, my favorite thing I bought was the poster from the DC '06 show.

    I have the corduroy shirt that Eddie wore at the 1992 lollapalooza show in St. Louis. I got it from someone who was in some entertainment management. He got it from Eddie and was selling it on ebay about 9 years ago. I email him and told him I thought it was crazy that he wanted $1000 for it. I paid $300. Really cool!

    I have his Chicago Bulls hat that he threw to me while he was singing the opening lines of PORCH from Lolla in 1992 at Harriet Island in Minneapolis...but how on earth could that be proven? If I was an "entertainment manager?"

    I'm not exactly sure on all the details, but I researched before I bought it.

    Don't know how you could do that...you know his smell?

    But for your sake I hope so...brown cord shirts are readily available..... :)

    Some dope will probably make up statistics that 95% of pearl jam finds are only purchased to make a profit. :D:lol::mrgreen:

    P.S. Just Kidding :D :P :shock:

    By "some dope" do you mean a Pearl Jam fan who is not a fan club member? Tisk, Tisk... :roll:

    Pretty lame...(of you)

    I want to say that Atomic Records (RIP) up here in Milwaukee had a midnight sale for Yield. With purchase of the CD they gave you a free gift bag of Yield merch: sticker, lanyard, and a copy of the Vinyl! Still have all of it.

    Lolla.....summer months...St. Louis gets pretty hot..performing on stage mid day.....disgusting sweat...odor....you paid $300 for a grown man's soiled t-shirt? Do people act impressed when you show them that or do they cut to the chase and tell you how disgusting it is to your face instead of doing it behind your back as soon as you leave the room?

    When I was going to the University of Texas around 99 or so there was a record store right across from campus called Sound Exchange i used to go to at least twice a week on the way to school. Once in their 45s I found the Angel/Ramblings Xmas 45 (I think its the 1993 one?) for, I shit you not, $1.50. Even the clerk did a double take and said, "That doesn't seem right," but still sold it.
