    I'm 43. Started listening when I was 18 and in art school.
    2014: Cincinnati
    2016: Lexington and Wrigley 1
  • 51 in a couple of weeks. Started listening in early '92 and have been hooked ever since! The music has meant so much to me in so many different ways, I couldn't even begin to explain. Now my oldest is 17, a musician, and we have been to 5 shows together.

    39 and I still love how music keeps me young... It's a beautiful sight without vision, you just need to listen. PJ4LIFE

    Fifty. Same age as Stone and the Super Bowl.
    It makes sense that in 91, I was 25 in college and the possessor of one of these.

    Thirty

    Remember seeing Vitalogy in stores the day of release. Knew the hits before that. I was really young when I fell in love with rock. Found a 5th grade notebook with some bands written on it including PJ (also Green Day, stp, ratm)

    I'm 39. I always kind of thought I was around the average age. Generally I run into people a few years older or a few years younger. You get the really young (and sometimes really old) outliers, but for the most part, when I go to a show, it looks like 90% of the people are my age, give or take 5ish years.

    46 3/4. Loved that time in my life. Lost my high school sweetheart to a move across country in 91. Turned to PJ for the "deep" emotions of 10. That album put me straight. Very lucky to have PJ all these years. Actually lucky to be in prime of life with great music from SG, pumpkins Alice and Nirvana as well . Hooked up with my sweat heart years later got married and she got turned on to PJ thru me. Now we go to shows together and look forward for them. I have my best friend and my boys still bring it every show!!
