    I've seen them twice. Seattle N1 & N2 2024. I honestly just really got into the band with Dark Matter.
    That's interesting. What was it that clicked? How familiar with them were you before?
    I've always listened to more underground/punk kind of stuff. I had really only ever heard the singles from the first two albums. When the Dark Matter single dropped I saw it in my feed and gave it a shot. I found myself getting the riff stuck in my head. What really made things click for me was running. When I hear that song, I hear Bad Religion. I love Bad Religion. So when Easy Street announced they were doing an album listening party, my girlfriend (who was already a fan) and I decided to go check it out. Half way through the album I went up to the counter and preordered the record. I thought it was that good. So then when the shows were announced my girlfriend wanted to go, and I managed to get tickets. I decided that if I was gonna spend that much to go to a show, I had better familiarize myself with the songs. So whenever I would go to the gym I would listen to a new PJ album. I also found myself listening to a bunch of PJ radio on Sirius XM to familiarize myself further with the catalog and see what they liked to play live. Turns out I really really liked what I heard. I loved the 2 Seattle shows that I attended, and I ended up joining the Ten Club, which paid off, because now my girlfriend and I are headed to Nashville for both shows in May.

    Also, Wreckage really resonated with me at the time. I loved how much it reminded me of Tom Petty
    Awesome. 

    See you in Nashville.

    Global Citizen VIP was the biggest waste of money I have ever spent on Pearl Jam.

    But a bargain to see Beyonce.  Ha.

    I can see I still have much to learn.  Just dropped Pitt though from the 2025 schedule as 10 shows in a row is too many shows in a row.  I still want to like this band when they stop touring.

    44 and still counting.

    I had 44 out of 45 (only Cincinnati 2003 got cancelled), but then got 0 out of the last 4 since July 2022:
    Vienna, Prague 2022 and both Berlin 2024 got cancelled.

    I really hope for a PJ European Tour 2025!

    speaking of Eddie, has any poster artist done an Eddie (PJ) as Eddie (Maiden)? THAT WOULD KICK ASS
    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer

    Been fortunate enough to get to 12 shows, 7 over the last 3 years.  Was hoping to add to that number in 2025 but the timing just didn’t work out for my wife and I.  She’s been with me for those last 7 shows, is completely hooked and holding out hope for a 2nd leg later in the year!!
