    Maybe the REAL question should be-When did pearl jam fans get so lame?

    Edit-or selfish? Or greedy? Or shameless?

    @lolobugg‌ yes I was referring to hipsters in nirvana shirts sorry for the super late reply.

    You know how I know we're old? Someone posted SASE in another thread without explanation and no one asked what the hell that means. THATs how I know I'm old.

    Wait, what's SASE? Such A Shitty Encore??? Hahahaha
    Bwahaha!
    I'm 36, and I don't feel old. Now get out of my pit, you kane-swinging wrinkle-lituses ;)

    My youth does not mean that I am not a grammar nazi though. I love that words from my native language have made it into regular lingo on here. But I feel the urge to say it...
    It is PAPPNASE, not Pappanase. Pappnase literally means a nose made of cardboard/ pappmache, it is what clowns are wearing. That was your little German lesson of the day.

    Rock on!

    PAPPNASE...Sorry about that... I will try to spell it correctly. it is my new favorite word!!!!

    I'm still not sure if he was calling me an idiot or a cardboard nose. Good stuff.

    Probably not.

    I'm guessing/hoping he's still looking for advocate. Or he's busy making sand kasten and leave wast anywhere.

    You know, when we were driving out of the show in StP, my wife and I noticed that there were a LOT of small SUVs and minivans leaving...when I first saw PJ in '92 at Lolla, there were a lot of beat up old cars...the crowd is changing, right along with the band. I love that the same band that I connected to so passionately as an 18/19 year old, I can STILL connect to passionately as a 40 year old. That is awesome. Bottom line.

    My friends who were into the hair rock and rap/hip hop crap in the early 90's are hoping to see their favorites on "where are they now" or "celebrity weight loss" shows. I get to see Pearl Jam.

    We win.

    He hit me up, threatening a lawsuit if we don't pay him some royalties. I told him we havent sold shit to give you royalties. What a pappnase!

    The average age at most shows I attend now has risen steadily over the years except for Death Cab For Cutie shows where I am one of the older people there! We tend the stick with what we grew up with. Even though my son is bombarded with the music I like every day, he'll probably eventually love what is popular and I'll think it's crap.

    I've been a fan for 22 years, but I was only 1 years old when I started, so I'm not old like all you creeps.

    Oh, and.........

    Just another pre coffee comment, even though the ticket prices are comparatively affordable, they're still $160 paid in full months in advance. That's like half of 18-year old me's weekly paycheck. I think we forget that a lot of "us" (one of us, one of us) who are in 30s40s, with minivans and kids and dropping coin on $8 beers inside have a certain level of privilege that most younger PJ fans won't/don't have.

    Don't attack me.

    Yes. I'm the original PAPPNASE. It is point of honor and a badge I shall wear proudly.

    Sure, but us 30/40 year olds also remember what that was like when the band was rampaging across the globe in those early days and even $20 + a ticket, plus gas, food and t-shirt back then was a lot of $ for a 16 year old working part time at $4.75 an hour.
