I think I may have just secured a GA ticket to Pearl Jam.... Say what you will, but they are a seminal band for me. Many core memories burned into my soul.

This version of Ledbetter was on a complication album I had of the Tibetan Freedom Concert from 94 (?).... All that's missing is the we are the mighty mighty bosstones as the track ran into the next one. Ha.

I'm taking my son to one of the shows. It's his first concert, and he loves PJ.

It's my first concert in about 18 years. The last one being, Pearl Jam in 06.

I saw them open for G&R in must have been 93. Only time a noise ordinance was taken seriously.

My friends went to that '06 show. I don't even care which show you went to, my friends toured Australia and went to them all. That was before that got married and had kids, of course. πŸ˜†

Nice! I'm hoping to be there Monday.

[-] MeanElevator@aussie.zone 2 points 2 months ago

I think that's the day we're going. I hope it's a good one.

Oh, I would give something to hear Black live.

Hard though, Ten was very much the pinnacle for me.

Same. Loved that album. Wish I still had the CD with all the pictures.

[-] calhoon2005@aussie.zone 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

TEN was my first cd purchase.

[-] Llabyrinthine@aussie.zone 2 points 2 months ago

It’s just so good. It feels transportive (is that a word?) whenever I put it on.

[-] Gibsonhasafluffybutt@aussie.zone 2 points 2 months ago

Aaaaand now I'm going to go for a walk and listen to it lol

Nice. I was lucky to see them in 95 with Mudhoney opening. Great show but stinking hot in the venue.
