Tonight I had the first of 4 scheduled and 11 unscheduled freak-outs where I fumble frantically about my cluttered room clutching for my PJ tickets...
Even when theyre in my pocket while I'm in the parkinglot, I am given to fits of desperately checking my pockets with and increasing increment of paranoia similar to increasing contractions prior to labor...
you know except without all the eventual taint-ripping...
anybody else a basket-case like me and can't just put it in the wallet and forget about it?

If you're in the 10 Club, and you're lucky on the day of the 10 Club sale, that should decrease the amount of freak-outs you get. Unless you forget what pocket you've put them in After you've collected them but Before you enter the venue!
Oh yea, DeJaVu? wow that'd be like if I had to hear the clit=chipped ham lecture for the umpteenth time (and YES, it's so Borring and borderline closet-case that I forget how it goes every time... tonight I thought it was chipped beef... that's the sign of an uninspired classroom)

I always get nervous about tickets and check my pockets as I leave my house, get in the car, get out of the car, get on the train, get off the train, and then heading into the venue. This happens for everything, whether it be a show or a sporting event. So for Pearl Jam shows the anxiety is ten times worse.

Yip, this sounds familiar. I'm glad I'm not the only one

Yes. It only got worse after I actually lost tickets for a Roger Waters concert years ago (although I eventually found them it took about an hour of frantic and desperate searching.

even after I'm in the venue I worry about losing my ticket--what if I'm coming back from the bathroom and they won't let me in.
My friend jason and I were going to the first philly show in 2000 and he left the tickets at home. So since then I've been extra careful.

One time I was in the parking lot and I started to look for my tickets. I could not find them in my jeans so I looked all over the floor, went to my car and cheeked front seat, back seat…nothing….even in the truck….nothing….I STARTED TO FREAK!! I mean….where the hell!!!
I tried to remember all I did before I leave the house but I could not remember the last time I saw my tickets.
I called home I make my gf look in our bedroom, night table, floor, garbage can, kitchen, bathroom….
NOTHING!!!
I started to cry…..then….I started to realize….
I started to remember…..
I was coming to me
Damn I live in Venezuela and I didn’t have any tickets at all.

I lost my tickets for the last (non-pj) show I went to. Believe it or not, ticketmaster was really nice about it, and they printed fresh tickets for me at the box office.
