    I waste way too much time on this forum.
    this

    On the old board I used to average 37 posts a day. I got to faithful status in 2 months or so . I'd spend hours upon hours on hours posting with the different crews and chatting with a few aussies . Overnights/mornings were aussies and euros and days were americans. I literally became this pathetic. Thank god for college then a few jobs or else I'd have a 100,000+ posts by now. The gabbly chat was the best thing for me cause hippiemom would be up latenight too and we'd chat for hours on end.


    And


    I once flew 3,000 miles just to see pj do 2 covers of the who and the who themselves play 11-13 songs. Had an amazing time at the who rock honors concert with a cool girl. The trip made my account a -$40 but it was totally worth it and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

    doing these things doesn't make you a bigger pearl jam fan than somebody who doesn't do them.

    i love the band so much...thats all i need and want...

    :thumbup:

    I know this is all in good fun and I hope this thread won't turn into a pissing match over who's the best fan because they've spent the most money or cause they have the most memorabilia etc., being a fan isn't a competition, is it now boys and girls? ;):mrgreen:

    To be honest, my first reaction to this was slight annoyment. :lol: Having worked at a DVD rental shop, I hate it when people pick things up and don't put them back to their proper places, making the shelves messy, cause someone's gotta organise them again. :P

    I let me girlfriend at the time (and first true love) wear my Stick Man T-shirt I bought in Spain way back in the day from some market place (not official like), we broke up years later and years after that I stumbled upon a photo of us together at Reading festival. She was wearing the T-shirt and all I could think was "DAMN I MISS THAT T-SHIRT" - I guess PJ was my real true love after all.

    :thumbup: Most of what I have are shirts with PJ on them so I can represent! :D (of course, cd's and some posters I got at concerts--one lifesize one that a friend got for me on a college campus--it's great). But anyway, I wear my shirts to work alot, and I work with a 17 year old. One day when he first saw me wearing one he said 'what's a pearl jam?'. This boy needed educated. :lol:

    Up until the time my life fell apart and everything changed....I purchased my home based on the fact that it had a shop that could house my collection....I spruced it up a bit and it turned into this......

    Due to life...it never turned into what I wanted....but it was a good idea....Will be losing this in the weeks to come...but it was fun while it lasted....still my passion...my obsession...but everything has changed.... :(

    These must be some socks! I'll have to look for these at the next show.

    I probably not as obsessed as I was years ago. I did buy all the 2000 bootlegs then when they went and did the same thing in 2003 I just couldn't justify spending the money and resigned myself to the fact I wouldn't own EVERYTHING. Right now I'm concentrating on getting vinyl and pretty much leaving it at that. And hoping someday for a Texas show.

    I made mixed CDs for my wife of 12 years in order to get her into the band, and printed out the lyrics to each song on each disc... I made her study to earn her ticket to MSG in 2010, which normally went to my "go-to-PJ-concert-going-friend"... she did well enough that I am now working on the "Eddie Vedder Solo" phase of her education.

    :lol::lol: They are some socks!!!! The ones I have (don't know if the others are talking about the same ones), are thick and black and long and have a little red emblem on the side of them. When I saw them, I thought...socks, how weird. Gotta have em. Still have them. I can't wear them much because they're so thick, but they're awesome. I got them a long time ago (I wanna say a '98 show, but one of the emblems reminds me of binaural so I don't know).
