Since I saw a pearl jam show? It's been so fucking long since I even had any expectations of seeing a pearl jam show that I can't even remember anything about the thread where I do my bitching about never getting to see pearl jam shows. I haven't seen a pearl jam show since before I joined RM in November 2003. The last time I saw a pearl jam show, bittorrent was a new technology that I learned to use in order to download official pearl jam boots, printed on actual silver CDs. The last time I saw a pearl jam show, there were people who thought the Iraq war was a good idea, and were willing to say so at a pearl jam show. Since the last time pearl jam played a show within 4 hours of where I live, they have played over 25 shows within 4 hours of New York City. It was 6 years and 27 days between my first and second pearl jam shows. I will soon be surpassing that length of time since the last time I saw a pearl jam show. Would I still be bitching if I didn't really like pearl jam anymore? Interesting question... |

Can we get an audit? EDIT 30 seconds later: You kinda hedged it with "over 25". I thought you had the exact amount of times.

One time a couple years ago I actually counted. It was 25 then. |

What made you cut off at 4 hours? Did they play 4 hours 2 minutes from your house? P.S. Can someone merge this and vacation this guy? This thread is an abomination. |

This thread is an abomination. 3 hours is about how far I can travel to see a show without having to a) buy a plane ticket, and b) stay overnight. With kids and a job, I need to be able to drive home after a show if the wife will let me go. She did let me travel to see Eddie in Santa Cruz last year, but that was a BIG exception, and only because a bunch of things fell into place perfectly to allow that to happen. |

4 hours is about the closest a show has been to me in the past 6 years (Phoenix to Vegas). |

you didn't have to quote me. i don't think anyone was going to get in the way of our flow. i think you're fucked again this fall. the odds the west coast shows go through arizona are slim to none. have you been living in the middle of the desert? nowhere near phoenix? |

Arizona's not "t-e-h South", but it's southern. Tucson's kinda North Mexico. |
