    wasn't it a drawing of 10 charter members? I think he mentioned he was in the MLB fan club and just kinda came into the ten club.

    Ten Club Recognizes 10 "Charter Members"
    June 08 2012

    The Ten Club recognizes 10 "Charter Members". We've dug through the ancient scrolls of the Ten Club history books and identified who we think are 10 of the first (and still active) members of this club. We wanted to get to know these folks a little better and thought you might too.

    One of these Charter Members will be selected to be hosted by the Ten Club in Amsterdam for the two PJ shows there this month. We'll be announcing the lucky member next week and sharing their adventure with you here on pearljam.com.


    From Deep 8: After an incredible show that first night, the band greeted Brian backstage. It wasn't the first time they had met. As a fan attending the early Pearl Jam shows on the east coast - you were likely to be 1 of 15-20 people in the audience, so you had a pretty good chance of meeting the band and exchanging contact information. Brian was one of those fans. He kept in contact with Jeff and Eddie sporadically over the years, mostly via postcards and letters which became less frequent as the band became better known. Still, Jeff and Ed would see Brian up front at shows and the occasional catch-up email or letter would ensue, keeping the bond intact.

    Saw him in the recliner side-stage at Missoula. Bullshit.

    From Deep 8 again: Brian: It took me about 5 to 6 hours and it went through many phases.

    Thanks and sorry if I unintentionally read over it or missed this from a post here.

    Man, it would be awesome to create the set list for a show, but damn.....I would be a wreck for like a week trying to develop it.

    Didn't this "someone" tell you how the contest was picked? Why are you asking us?
