I recently went to Alaska for vacation and on the Chicago-LA leg I noticed a guy wearing the surfboard logo tee from this tour as we were changing planes. I was wearing my "lucky flying shirt" the Bandwagon Tee and I struck up a conversation with him. As it turns out he's from the East Coast and he and his three teenage sons were going to see some shows in California. He said theyalready saw a bunch of shows in the East. How cool is that? My Dad took me to see Sha-Na-Na back in the day! I spaced asking him if he was on this forum! During my Alaskan adventure me and a buddy did a bunch of hitchiking. One day I was hitching back to our tent site in the middle of nowhere Alaska (Cooper Landing) and after waiting for a good 45 minutes, I was picked up by this guy and his girl only because I was wearing another Pearl Jam tee, the hawk/dove one from VFC. I did tell them about RM, but alas they have no computer. They hooked me up with a ride and then some. I promptly mailed them off a Pearl Jam care package upon my return. I dig the random Pearl Jam fan encounter!!

Cool story. One day wearing my European 2000 bootleg shirt will bring me similar encounters.

It was probably me. I was at the Denver airport around that time. I was flying frontier so I was at that terminal. I had the 2000 blue tour shirt on.

My sister and I once saw a guy at the airport with a bag with the binaural head logo on it, when we were on our way to San Jose. When we spoke to him about it, it turned out to be Ed's guitar technician. :) Nice guy.

Hi all.....just got back from the Caribbean....7 days on a ship, making stops in Haiti, Jamaica, the Caymans and Cozemel, Mexico. I wore my Mookie shirt one night on board, my 'Patriot' shirt another and the Canada tour shirt another night. No one said anything to me, but I got some doubletakes. I have some cool pics of me and my cousins at the Marley statue in Jamaica, but I dont know how to post a pic. Some body let me know how and I will post em.

go to photobucket.com sign up....upload the photo you want to post. It will be added to the bottom of your page. Under the picture will be a link that you will be able to post doing the same thing you did above.

It wil not post strait from your computer. You have to upload it to a file hosting site like photobucket.
