    Plus, PJ isn't like most bands.
    You can see them multiple times in a row, in the same city even, and experience a different show all together each time. To me, that keeps it exciting as well.

    The shows get better and better but I get so mad when PJ is in my neck of the woods and I can not see them due to other factors. I would rather see a "bad PJ show" (if there is such a thing) than not see them at all.
  • Always a great show.....every one of them seem unique to me

    That's one of the best things about seeing them live. I agree that every time is just as good, if not better than the time before. I've only seen them 9 times, but I have never, ever been even slightly disappointed.

    Its always awesome. For me, its like going to see old friends now even though i don't know that many people. Just being around others that love the music. If you go to a lot of shows in your area, you're going to end up sitting near some of the same people at more than one show. I love it. I love the ritual of a Pearl Jam show. Its like church should have been. It is my church.

    Besides, you never know what might happen. For all you know, they might put on yellow suits, and red cone hats and come out and sing a Devo song ;)

  • May 7th will be PJ show #9 (in addition to 2 eddie solo shows). Like many others have said their is a "magical" quality about it. The one thing I have learned is that the person or people you attend a show with can change how memorable an individual show can be. I have yet to attend more than one show with any one individual and in addition to change in set lists, venues, and eras this has had a huge effect. I just hope I can continue seeing PJ shows for the next 20 years or so. Cannot wait for Indy, venue #9 concert partner #9.

    For me, it continues to get better because they always have newer songs to offer each time I see them. They occasionally have their off days that many people will complain about, but I only see them 2-3 times per U.S. tour and for me, that's just enough to keep it special each time.
