UPDATE: POSTERS ARE NOW LIVE ON EBAY

I first want to thank all the kind people I met on my journey to Jacksonville & Orlando. You all made standing in line for these posters much more of a pleasure and memorable experience. Chris, Melissa, Steve(eyecanwalk), Dave, Jose, Graham, to name a few.

After hearing Eddie preface Arc in regards to it originally being a prayer for those that we lost tragically at Rothskilde and that if he performed a one minute loop for those that died in the recent conflicts it would take 29 hours. But what really jarred me was that if he did it for the recent veterans that have committed suicide since returning home it would take 12 days of constant prayer.

Let's do something about that.

I am going to be placing a night one Jacksonville and night two Orlando of the Eddie Vedder signed concert posters (limited to 10 each) on Ebay with all monies going directly to Mental Health Association of New York City, Inc. which directly supports Veterans Crisis Hotline. Many here can confirm the authenticity of these posters including the affable Tom Husman, Eddie's merchandise manager, whom I met both nights and watches Eddie sign the posters before delivering them personally to the tenacious ten. Both posters are pristine and tube stored with clean signatures.

Music at its best inspires. You've done that Eddie. Now let's make Eddie proud and more importantly show our veterans we care by share this and bidding.

Please bump for charity!

  • Spoke with staff at Ten Club and Ebay links are not normally allowed on the forum, but she assured me she is looking into it in regards to charity. I will keep you all posted.

    Please continue to bump. Let's make this top of the forum. That's all I want for Christmas. Thank you fellow jammers.

  • way to go shannon...very selfless of you...

    posters were originally for charity...and you're expanding upon that to be able to give even more...

    ed spoke repeatedly throughout this tour about the healing power of music, how it can inspire and even save a person. this is music working at its best through shannon...setting a fine examples for the rest of us!

    Very inspiring Shannon. :D

    I've already seen two of these autographed posters on eBay and for your posters to go on the auction block for a good cause is nice to see. I was there too for the signed poster at Jax 1, freezing in shorts and flip-flops....5th in line. Keep up the good work!

    I'm Jose I was the #2 :lol: at Orlando night 2

    Someone beat you there :oops: .................................... :nono:

    What happened. Did the alarm not go off at 6 am :fp: .................. :lol:




    Shannon, very cool indeed 8-) . I usually volunteer giving adaptive snowboard & ski lessons this week in Breckenridge Co. to the Wounded Warriors. Been do it for the past 5 years. Very disappointed I had to cancel my plans at the last moment. It's the 1 week of the year I always put aside & look forward to. These men & woman have been through a lot & sacrificed much more than most . It's a shame more things aren't done to help them out.
    So, What you Giving ?........ (Thanks Speedy, Alesek, & Arq+friends)
    What You Giving

    I suggest you step out on your Porch.
    Run away my son. See it all. Oh, See the World!
  • This is an awesome idea!! Congrats and well done!!

    Cheers and be well,

    Hey Shannon, great idea man.
    Had a blast the two nights in Orlando waiting out front for these bad boys.
    I think you should get a few bucks for the cause. Good luck with the sale and hope to see you at some more jams
    Dave.

    What a generous person you are. I'll certainly throw my hat in the ring and make a couple of bids.. but don't think I'll have enough coin the 'win' it :) ... a meandering bump for the cause ;)

    I planned on it, Washed. Those that comment or bump I am sending a PM with the link first. Thank you and everyone for the kind words and supporting our veterans. Remember all, when you bid there is no such thing as greed when it is going to a worthy cause.

    the orlando group was pretty tight. i'd be surprised to see any of the signed orlando posters pop up on ebay ever. so, for those that are interested in getting the gator, this will probably be your only chance. and its for a good cause.
  • This is an awesome gesture! Bravo :clap::clap::clap: :thumbup:
