    I'm turning 45 on New Years Eve. It all started with Temple of the Dog...
    I live in Sweden and since Pearl Jam don't come here that often (not since 2000) I have not seen them live that many times. Last year I went to Berlin and Seattle and next year I will go to Dublin and Belfast :D . All my friends, family and colleagues at work think I'm totally crazy... But I don't care. I see it as a great opportunity to see different places around the world at the same time as I get to see the best band in the world perform live...

    Happy holidays to all of you!!

    51 and felt like 101 after rocking out at all four Philly shows (never sat once).

    Funny thing is that I have such a blast at the shows meeting and hanging out with the young people (age 30). :D

    Two weeks after the Philly shows I took my wife and parents on a cruise...I was soooo bored, I felt I had nothing in common with any of the other travelers. I kept having the urge to ask others on the ship if they caught any of the Philly shows...but didn't want to have to explain what a Pearl Jam was.

    At least I was able to show off my new PJ tattoo around the pool...

    Great to see PJ have fans this age! I'm getting close myself, well and truly over 40, dont look it, dont act it. And I'm thinking of getting a PJ tatt too, am I too old?

    According to Jeff 40 is the new 30. And how good are all the guys well and truly into their 40s? I'd like to be able to skate like Jeff can, and surf like Eddie.

    I just turned 49, fell in love with PJ's music when I was 31 (a.k.a. 1992). Can't imagine life without PJ or without PJ fans. I love what a broad range of ages we are; it was that way from the start.

    ...48 here, also felt an immediate connection to the music at 30. Was glad to see some fans my age in San Diego! But I gotta tell you, the stairs from the floor to get out were a killer!
