Just out of curiosity what colleges does everyone go to/has everyone graduated from? Anybody lucky enough to have Pearl Jam come to their college way back?

I'm currently at St. Lawrence University

    Click on my name and you will see. I don't think that Pearl Jam will play in a provincial city of Greece. When they came in Greece, back in 2006, they rocked our capital, Athens. So if they decide to Come Back, they are free to play wherever they wish, including Athens of course. :)
    Athens 2006 / Milton Keynes 2014 / London 1&2 2022 / Seattle 1 2024 / Dublin 2024 / Manchester 2024 / London 2024

    I'm in my 4th year at The University of Iowa. Skipped the first day of classes last august for PJ in Chicago.

    I would love to make it to St. Louis or Indy next week but it's the week before Finals and I can't afford to spend the time driving.
    It's all happening....

    When I was at Middle Tennessee St Pearl Jam played Murphy Center which was our basketball arena. Since it was on campus they couldn't sell beer but we all snuck in big bottles of JAck Daniel's.

    Unfortunately, the dome stinks for shows-imagine the tunes bouncing off the floor and the seats, heading up to the dome and never coming back-I saw u2 and floyd there-terrible sound-worst ever

    Graduated from Truman State University in 1998. To give you an idea of its size, here's the kind of talent that came when I was there:

    Violent Femmes
    Goldfinger
    The Sugarhill Gang and Melly Mel
    Ben Folds (which was kind of awesome)
    De la Soul
    Wyclef Jean

    I live in Lawrence, KS, now. Kansas University is here. We also have one of the better music scenes in the Midwest (between Chicago and Denver). Pearl Jam actually played a festival here called Day on the Hill in 1992. I wasn't there, but I hear it was something very special. There's a clip on youtube (type in Pearl Jam Porch Lawrence '92) where Eddie climbs the rafters during Porch, starts swinging from the mic cable, falls 10 feet from the scaffold onto his back, then finishes the song. Amazing. A buddy of mine was there, but he was so stoned he couldn't remember it.
    7/27/1992: Lollapalooza, St. Louis; 7/11/1995: Soldier Field, Chicago
    7/2/1998: Riverport, St. Louis; 7/3/1998: Sandstone, KC; 10/9/2000: Rosemont Horizon, Chicago; 10/12/2000 Sandstone, KC; 6/12/2003: Sanstone, KC; 6/13/2003 MAC Center, Omaha

    I go to the University of Kentucky. We just had Drake perform a few days ago. :roll: And some country band came last year.

    If you count shows at Rupp Arena since thats where the basketball team plays, but its off campus, we've had Seether, Kings of Leon, Nickleback, Keith Urban, Black Eyed Peas this year. And Pearl Jam came in 2003 at Rupp.


    Vanderbilt gets some pretty cool bands on campus. They had the Flaming Lips come this year I believe.

    I'm a high school senior now, but In the fall, I'll be attending University of Maryland (Go Terps!!)

    Really excited about that in part because a lot of bands drop by the campus, DC, and Baltimore- in a great area for some really awesome shows! Excited to check out some new venues too.


    I know PJ played there in '92--PLEASE PLEASE come again in the next 4 years!! :)
