LOVE this thread!!
When your wife refers to Eddie Vedder as the man she shares her husband with....
When your 3 children (youngest 4) recognise any Pearl jam song that comes on are happy that is all the music Dad has in his car.
When your 8 year old twins are in tears when you didn't get them tickets to see EV solo tour as well. Sorry boys- too few tickets. Have promised him, that he can come to next PJ tour in Oz.
When get excited about hearing PJ on TV - in any show, like you are proud that they chose their song.I'll ride the wave where it takes me

You bee-line towards PJ stuff in record stores, like pidgeon, although you are there for something else.
Even your friends are stoked for the Pearl Jam movie, cannot wait to see it. You are sure of it.
You are hiking in the hills, there is echo, and you are doing your best impression of Eddie's 'heeeee'.
You get a kick out of store mural on which someone that looks like Mike advertises car tyres.
You wish it was a little colder, so you can get that PJ jacket.
You are thinking of going camping somewhere on another continent. Last time you camped was with scouts.0 -

When you listen to Live on Ten Legs over and over while travelling because you forgot your Ipod and your spouse just deals with it and doesn't even bother asking if we can listen to something else.
When you're watching Jeopardy with a friend and there's a category named Immortality and you have to tell her that there's a PJ song named that, as if she gives a shit.
When someone you know say's that PJ sucks you actually get really offended as if they're offending a member of your own family.If you have nothing to lose, you have nothing to worry about.0 -
When you run out of room on your 64g ipod (all pearl jam after you obviously remove all non-pj before deleting pj) and you get a new boot... spending an hour rationalizing which show you remove... changing your mind at least 3x...
When your kids force you non-pj loving spouse to play PJ Radio in the car (when you are not in the car), because all other music sucks...
When 100% of your birthday gifts, even from mom, are PJ related.

you've tried to bribe tenclub to get your number from 1998 back. you got that membership when you were 13 by jacking your mom's credit card, getting caught and never re-newing the membership until you got your first card 5 years later.

You log on to 10c before the kettle boils in the morning.
You find boots on every shelf and in every cupboard.
You sell £300+ worth of old shite on ebay to save for PJ20 but blow it all on boots and t-shirts in a week.
You doodle dream setlists every time someone leaves a pen lying next to an opened envelope.
Your children know the titles to more than 5 PJ songs or at least "kind of" know the lyrics to them.Like a book among the many on a shelf...
Dublin 02 Arena - 22/6/10. Belfast Odyssey Arena - 23/6/10. London Hyde Park - 25/6/10. Berlin Wuhlheide - 30/6/10.

you didn't buy Vitalogy on the release date because you knew you would get it for xmas
you're talking to a local in Thunder Bay or Toledo and they are shocked/amazed that you came all the way from California to their city for one day 'just to see a concert'
you have some favorite rare PJ tour shirts that you only wear at PJ shows because you don't want them to wear out and fade
you've owned the 'secret' Japan tour movie and the Birdman sessions for many years
Ed loses his place in the song and you yell out the lyrics to help him outI Saw Pearl Jam!
