For the gift of Pearl Jam! I had never really heard Pearl Jam until I attended the Bridge School Benefit in October 2010. Being a huge Neil Young fan for the past 40 years, of course I knew who PJ was, but I never really heard any of their music. That all changed last October when PJ took the stage at Bridge on Saturday. From that day on, I have been hooked on this band! :D

Am I sad that I missed the first 20 years? Of course. However, I plan to be along for the ride during the next 20, and what a ride it will be! :thumbup:

    My 9 year old is just getting into Uncle Neil. He says to me recently, "Dad, you gotta check out this song by Neil Young...it's awesome! You ever heard 'Heart of Gold?' "
