Traded 1,000 shows? Been to 457? Met the band? What's yours?

Mine can definitely be summed up in two simple words:

Navy Bean

I think it was pretty cool I drove all the way back home to the West of the Netherlands from Zagreb in one (long) day. But the fellow on the back seat had a harder time, with me and my boyfriend singing and at one time even fighting

Getting the whole band to put on mullet wigs in the encore.

This is yet to happen, but it will.

I got my name under the "Thank You" section on the Synergy website after the 2003 tour for sending in a concert review. It never got posted, but the Thank You list is still up: http://sonymusic.com/artists/PearlJam/notes.html

got ticket for both the Astoria and the Vic

but my biggest accomplishment is getting a song played that had only been heard once in Europe before, 14 years previously.

meeting eddie after the 2nd LA show in 2006 and having a great convo about the reading VFC show i went to in which he remembered a sign my friend and i made and also explaining how "no way" was going to be the next great campaign of a rarely played song. :thumbsup:

These are good friends but nothing compared to circulating a fake song list for an upcoming album, then having one of those songs become part of the Jamily scene forever.

Ed saying "it's good to know some people in the crowd are getting high" as he pointed at me while I was sitting 2nd row to the left of the stage hitting my bowl at the Albany 03 show right before Daughter.

being a Quebecois just like Céline Dion because she's been in the charts with Pearl Jam, as i heard...

my friend and i brought a wellwater conspiracy poster to one of the boston/mansfield 03 shows (the famous 3 shows) and held it up until eddie saw it. he laughed and pointed at it, then turned around and got stone's attention during a song and pointed at it laughing.

i think he was really just laughing at the fact that we owned a wellwater conspiracy poster.

What's your greatest Pearl Jam related accomplishment?
