Got something nice to say, say it here!!

There has been an awful lot of negativity, arguing and flipper bashing lately.

WE cant change how posters are sold or who buys them up first.

I think we could all use a safe place on the forum here, free from attacking each other and arguing over who is flipping a poster, or who didn't cut their toe nails this morning. Who likes Trump and who doesn't. On this thread, who cares. We aren't talking about that stuff. Don't turn this thread into a merch discussion and how we can make it better.

I know a lot of people here help others out with tour merch and free giveaways etc.

Lets share these stories here.

If you had a great day today because someone paid it forward and bought your morning coffee, Let us all know.

Life is too short for BS and there is a lot of it going around.

Lets go !!

    I bought a Missoula sticker on Ebay, got it yesterday and will be sticking it on my tool box today. 
  • I had an excellent bowel movement this morning.

    I was able to see many friends as part of the Home/Away shows and am truly happy for this.
    Made a few new ones as well.
    Came away from the tour merch storm with 1 each of BK (Seattle/Fenway) to frame and hang....a t-shirt I wanted, and to be able to donate a few other posters.  This would not have been possible without the help of friends, along the way, including a few people I had never met before.

    See ... These are the things we really need to be hearing about. All good stuff guys.

    If you had a good movement in the morning that's great. I bet you feel alive and ready for the day now.

    While in GA in Seattle for N2, I appreciated the kind souls who shared water, shelter from the blazing sun and kindness of company. 
  • I just packed up a couple PJ posters and misc merch to donate for a raffle to benefit the family of a PJ fan who left this earth last week. It felt even better than hanging a framed poster on the wall.
  • Nice thread!  I was in Europe for my first 3 shows outside of Canada or USA, Prague, Krakow and Berlin.  My brother and I had a blast visiting incredible cities and meeting nice people from all over the world.  The PJ experience is great.  We even enjoyed the line ups for merch as they were occasions to meet with other great fans.  Looking forward to hear new music from PJ!!

    A kind stranger sent me some things I missed in Chicago, stickers, buttons. I'm giving the Seattle and Boston sticker cards away with their corresponding mini-patches.

    I bought my 6 year old a junior tennis racket today. Best part about it, it has a Unicorns on the frame.

    Pearl Jam makes me happy. 

    Regardless of what I have going on, listening to their music will always put a smile on my face.

    I applaud the start of this thread, and it is funny how coincidental it is as I ran into a business competitor of mine this morning and he bought me my morning tea (no, I am not a coffee drinker).  I've been saying to myself for the past 3 hours that I need to pay it forward somehow today.  Looking forward to doing this.
