    When you consider going to a Phillip Glass performance, just to hear 20-30 secs of a song, so you can get that feeling you get when you hear it at a PJ show! Of course once you tell your wife that's why you want to go, she rolls her eyes and calls you "obsessed".....

    When you're on your 2nd Pearl Jam license plate...and your brother has one too.

    When you run into Mike McCready and he refers to you as "the License Plate Guys"

    When you're referenced on a bootleg.......You smile when listening to the 5/18/2010 NJ boot at the end of The Fixer, when Eddie says "I'm seeing a lot of license plates being held up....and...I can't read 'em...but I'm just anticipating they're stolen....is that why?"....and you know it's about you!
    ...44 shows...and counting....

    when sometime ago there was a radio we used to call every day to vote for a group just because they said your name and location in between songs. PJ was 1st place for months.
    That same radio had a shutdown years ago, and now it's been on for some months, the other day just from a sony megabass analog fm player really old i keep at work, in my dinner break got to listen 'You've Got To Hide Your Love Away' from them. roots from the past fucking made me cry, or was it just the song itself? :D
    When you're with your buddy and he puts 'Smile' on repeat and you're sure it's fine with you.
    love the thread
  • If you refer to live albums that cost 15 dollars as "bootlegs"....you might be a Pearl Jam fan.

    If you've thought about stealing a Yield sign from the side of the road....you might be a Pearl Jam fan.

    If you have 20 or more songs on your iPod titled "Encore Break"....you might be a Pearl Jam fan.


    Yup...totally have a Yield sign hanging on my wall..since the album came out, paid my brother $20 to steal it for me :-)
    If peace is real why can't the world be it?

    You know you are Pearl Jam fan when you have bank account just for PJ stuff: tours, goodies, posters ecc, nothing else...

  • When you're husband doesnt even bother questioning youre insane amts of PJ purchases over the past few months, cause he's just so used to it. And when he doesn't even bother to ask if you're buying tickets to the EV solo show, cause it's just a given, no questions need to be asked... And when you're 7 and a half and 4 and a half yr old insist on listening to PJ in dads car cause they Are so used to listening to it all the time in mums car :-)

    When on your ipod you will skip songs like Jeremy, betterman, Alive, but as soon as they are played on the radio, you play it and sing it out loud.

    you turn on your dvd player and it lights up 'Hello', but all you hear is ed saying "Hello. Hello hello" as he does in the beginning of Public Image on the Berlin 2010 Boot!!

    hahahah! im the same way...im such a snob when i pop in a bootleg and skip Alive and Even Flow 99% of the time but as soon as I hear them on the radio, I feel proud that the band gets some radio play and listen start to finish.
