    I was going to say Model A, but Shooting Star really does say it better.

    28th - It was the Even Flow video and MTV Unplugged that kicked off the love affair. I got my first cassette copy of Ten by trading a friend The Black Crowes - The Southern Harmony & Musical Companion that year. Been keeping up since.

    I still remember where I was the first time I heard “Alive” in ‘91 and I got the Stickman tattoo 26 years ago in ‘94. No regret’s! Through all the up’s and down’s of life it’s been a GREAT ride with this band. Never thought I’d make it this long but… I’m still Alive! 
    2020 is PJ30, Thank you for the music guy’s, you have changed and touched many lives.

    Great stories you guys! :plus_one:
    You just provided me with a different perspective: 10 days before they release Gigaton I'll be in my 10th year of official 10C membership (a lot of 10s there :smile: ). I used to lurk the old forums from 2002 (high school years - PEARL JAM was drawn on every single mouse pad in the computers lab) until 2010 that I finally became a member. Fell in love with their sound around 9-10 (another 10 seriously?) years old (1998) due to a cassette of Live On Two Legs that my oldest brother left stranded on top of the family sound system. So, in that sense, 2020 marks my 22nd year as a PJ fan.
    Thanks for all the amazing moments guys! Here's to many more to come! :peace:

    I'm confused. Isnt being a fan since Fall 1991 a requirement for joining 10c?

    27th. When I was a kid I used to wish I had a band like my dad had Led Zeppelin and the Stones, then I did! Time of my life.

    26 or 27?

    I’m almost 37 and Ten and Vs were among the “free” Columbia House CDs I got in 5th grade. Still remember the fallout with the parents. Worth it!
