  • Yep, I had a similar thing.. I went to a gig with some friends (they haven't liked Pearl Jam since Yield) and they brought this girl along.. seemed nice, so in the car we talked. 'You like Pearl Jam? I looooove Pearl Jam' she said. 'Wow,' I said, what's your favourite album?'
    'I only have Ten. But I LOVE it.' Stunned silence from me.. I'm not sure she knew why, but for me, her last utterance was akin to her saying 'Actually, there's no point in chatting me up. I'm gay.'

    I mean, honestly, it astounds me to this day. How can you LOVE an album, then take absolutely no interest what-so-ever in the rest of their material? My dad's exactly the same..

    well put! after hearing Ten for the first time and falling in love with it I couldn't wait to get my hands on other Pear Jam albums!! :D

    fair enough if you get the other albums and don't like them as much but at least.. give it a shot. lol.

    Yeah.. this girl's had Ten on her shelves for years, and she's loved the hell out of it, but NEVER has it occured to her to think 'Hey, I wonder if they have other albums.' Wow.

    wow, that's pretty dumb of you. if it were me, i'd keep talking to her. maybe one day you can show her the other albums and get her into them even more.

    you had it even better than most people do. she already liked Ten a lot. you just had to show her the other albums and she might have been as big a fan as you one day.

    pity.

    One time I met this EXTREMELY hot girl at a bar and she said she was a HUGE Pearl Jam fan. We got to talking and she had all the albums, bootlegs, and DVDs. BUT she could only name all the songs in order off of the first 4 albums. I was like Pfff....POSER! So I kicked her in the c and ran away.

    I was out on xmas eve at a pub (getting very drunk) and i got introduced to this "massive pearl jam fan." I started talking to her thinkling finally i have met a girl who likes pearl Jam as much as me. So i started talking to her and asked what concerts she had been to and she said "I went to one last year" I said "oh really i went to 2(both in sydeny), if you dont remember what concert it was, do you remember what song they opened with?" "No" she said "Well they played 3 concerts 1st one they opened with release 2nd evolution and 3rd Betterman" "I don't know" she said

    I then said "what albums do u have?" she said 'Ten' I said "is that all? arent u supposed to be a big fan?" She said very sarcastically "I'm a big fan, your an obbsessed fan"

    I wouldnt call myself obbsessed, im a massive fan, but i wouldn't classify her as a big fan. She also said "that dude has a cool voice" After that i said I'm going to the bar and did not return.
    so you walked away from her because she wasnt a "massive pearl jam fan????"

    she is right ...you are obsessed....

    she also doesnt realize how lucky she was that you just walked away.....

    actually....i bet she does....hehehehehehe

    im thinking after hearing....
    whats your favorite band member??
    whats your favorite concert???
    have you ever seen booms organ???
    what do you think of EDs new hair cut???
    have you been to cincy???
    whats your favorite album???

    she was fucking thrilled you walked away......

    hahahahahahahahaha...........
    Take me piece by piece.....
    Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
