Rhinojam, nice to meet you in line waiting to get in the show. A true gentleman and a scholar.
Flight was delayed so we arrived too late to get a poster outside and they were sold out by the time we got in!
Number 610
Thanks for the chance

Plus, I just love the look of the poster!
My guess # 369
"I'm not about to give thanks or appologize"
"Caught a bolt of lighting, cursed the day he let it go"
I was at the show but missed out on the poster both outside (5 pm) and inside despite getting in line as soon as the doors opened at 6:30). Doh!
This was a magical show for me, though. My first in GA! I was right behind the people on the rail right in front of Mike and unfortunately had my face melted during the show. However, Eddie made it up to me by giving me a swig from his wine bottle. Funny thing is...when I was drinking the wine someone else grabbed the bottle and wine slashed all over me. Only made the dream experience better, though. I turned to the fine folks around me, raised my arms triumphantly and celebrated like hell.
The night was perfect...and if love to have the poster from that perfect night hanging on my wall!
Also, my first show was at Charlotte Memorial Stadium in '96 and I didn't get the poster...rookie mistake that I've regretted since!
My number...lucky number 777
Thanks for the opportunity!

Well nothing dramatic here. Had my brother drive down into town (8 hours) to go to Charlottesville with me. Then he watched my daughter so my wife could go to Charlotte with me. Wife had to work later than we thought so we got there too late for a poster. I wanted one, but it was nicer to see the show with my wife (hasn't made it to a show with me in a while).

Being in Florida and in the military, I don't get too much convenient time off so I have to travel to shows I can get time off far. I got off at 11 am on Wednesday, grabbed a PJ virgin to make the trip with me so I didn't have to drive alone. Got to Charlotte (did not get a poster). Saw the show and immediately drove back to base. I live 45 minutes south of base so didn't have the time to make it home then back to work. Took a 2 hour nap in my car on base and was in to work on time at 730. Tired but well worth the trip. 680 miles and little to no sleep but we do what we can to see PJ. My number is 130.
Also thanks to Porch4294(Patrick) for the great 10C seats. Sec 113 row C.
Here's her story... She really deserves it, is a big fan!
Number - 31
So Charlotte 's poster was fucking incredible, and we got there early JUST for that. And I watched all 6 merch stands take the last one off the display :( :( :( it meant a lot to me personally- my boyfriend is nicknamed B, my quote on yahoo emails- from my laptop anyway, just not in sync with my tablet- is a quote from Aunt Bea (from Andy Griffith), my youngest dog Skye was Aunt Bea (Andy Griffith inspired litter names) as a tiny pup, which meant that she out of 10 littermates was meant to be mine, I got a tattoo of a bee on my wrist a couple of weeks ago, and the three bees on the poster signified my third show in a row, and my favorite number.... That's a lot of hidden meanings hahaha. So suffice it to say, I really want that poster, and didn't know if you knew any way for me to find one, besides the $175.00 one on eBay, or the guy who has one on the forums for the same price.... Are the ones bought that night the only ones in existence??? I've seen some old ones on PJ's website, but imagine those are leftovers? Any advice on getting my hands on that poster would be greatly appreciated

Thanks for the chance! The world works in weird ways sometimes!
I saw the poster on the forums before I got there and was very excited, such a cool poster!! We couldn't head to Charlotte until my husband got off work so we arrived about 5:30 and the outside merch tent was already sold out. I was bummed but figured I'd get one when we got inside. No such luck, already sold out before I even got in the door!! Super let down since I also missed out on the awesome poster from the Charlotte '96 show. Checked eBay and of course the posters are going for $100+ on there. Disgusting. I've only been to 5 PJ shows, and this poster would have been an awesome piece of memorabilia to hang on my wall.

I was lucky enough to see Eddie solo last fall and I absolutely walked away a better person. I had not seen Pearl Jam since Lollapalooza in Raleigh, in 1993. It was THE highlight of the year I was taking care of my Mom, who was dying from cancer. I was home for a bit, and the day of the show, a great friend gave me his ticket, and it BLEW MY 22 year old MIND!!! I'm from Raleigh but moved away not long after, and missed many shows - until this tour. And I knew I had to go. Odd timing, as I have been taking care of my father, who now has cancer. It's been rough, and PJ was the medicine I needed.
So I got my tickets, took off work, and made a mini tour of it, me and my dog. We drove up from NC to Baltimore, for my first show in 20 years and it was life changing. The music, the crowd, the LOVE. I have a few great dvds, constantly watch the live ones on YouTube - and it was everything I hoped it would be. And more. It was overwhelming, and yes, I cried during Small Town, and during Man of the Hour for Lou Reed. What a crazy-emotional show....
We then headed west to the top of Skyline Dr and took it all the way south to the Blue Ridge Pkwy, stopping midway to camp Monday night. Then finished the Drive, meeting bears, deer and cool people along the way.
Then on to Charlottesville, and another incredible show. Once again, I had seats next to some awesome folks. The only thing that perplexed my Charlottesville show, we're the rows of people sitting down. I still don't get it.... How can anyone sit down with ALL THAT going on???
So our last stop was Charlotte somehow- not sure if it was a tweet? - but I saw the poster, and fell in LOVE. Got there early, running to each merchandise kiosk, and smited. I almost cried watching the last one come off display, knowing, I would not be taking one home. What a bummer.... But I still had the show, and yet again, was SURROUNDED by incredible fans, the LOVE and lyrics flowed like Eddie's wine hahaha Another great show, and a great way to wrap it up (if I had to, which unfortunately, I did).
I will never forget what I brought home with me, on my trip, and having those three Hornets around that hive, to remind me of those three astounding nights, would be the icing on the cake. Don't NEED icing, but it sure makes a cake better, eh?
My number? 333
in honor of my lucky number being 3- it IS a magic number, cause Schoolhouse Rock taught me that on Saturday mornings in the 70's - and like the 3 magic hornets on the poster!
There may be WAY too much story to my story, and WAY too much LOVE in my post. I blame it on the post Pearl Jam GLOW

First off, 11/8 is my birthday -- I'll be 33 tomorrow, and have been a hardcore fan since I was 12!
My gal and I could not afford to make the show in her home state of NC; with me returning to school, and her splitting her time between MA and NY for work, we could only afford Worcestor 1.
On top of that, "Bee" is our mutual pet name for each other (sorry to gross any of you out). Together, we are the "Bee's Knees," and we have a few other bee-related items around the house as part of our inside joke.
I'll pick #811.
Best of luck to everyone!

Actually, that's irrelevant - this was a very, very cool thing to do, so I'm not disappointed. You're a very generous fan.
