They could be good or bad, but rank five moments of the year of the band. for me its:
1) Alpine Valley. i had such a good time there, with the pearl jam museum, the bands, both shows were great, we got temple of the dog...if someone told me 15 years ago that i would be there, i wouldn´t have believe it.
2) seeing pearl jam twenty in a theatre. Even if the movies was good or bad, even if they are still ignoring dave...the fact that i was seated in my movie theatre, the whole place was packed, the lights went out and i saw the word pearl jam in the big screen....i mean how cool is to see monkeywrench footage in the big screen?
3) the buenos aires show. amazing to see how many people are into this band now. 10 years ago around the time of yield and binaural it was very hard to know people who liked the band. The nu metal movement was in their biggest moment and pearl jam and grunge weren´t popular. I never imagined something like the past sunday, a whole stadium singing their newest songs.
4) being in new york around the days they played in fallon, even if i didn´t went there, watching in it "live".
5) in the moonlight with josh homme, mother ( in buenos aires), getting release twice as a opener....

Well played Mr Smith.

Number 1 isn't really a "Pearl Jam" moment, stip.
You're just bitter b/c Pearl Jam doesn't tour the South.
