Those photos aren't that bad. Thanks for posting them. You're going again to see them this weekend, right? Hope you had a blast.

I need to pick up their new CD soon.

I love pearl jam! I wanna see them soon. I wish I could have had a chance to see Nirvana live, that'd been sweet

Now that you mention it, I don't think I ever saw Nirvana live either.

I'll have to go look through all my ticket stubs.

I saw them last week, two nights in Seattle, it was pretty epic.... I wrote a little review and it ended up getting up picked up by the local music blogs, then subsequently retweeted out by the band's official twitter. My son and I got interviewed by local radio and stuff too, we had a great time... here is our story if you have a few minutes to kill.....

Nice story Vitalogist

The other night, Eddie brought up a kid and had him help sing a song. The kid looked like a deer in headlights he was so nervous. Just like your son, he will remember that moment I am sure for the rest of his life.

What a great night! He'll never forget it!!

So many facets of this story are awesome, not the least of which is...as the comments made about the write up show, other parents got inspired to share times like this and music in general with their own kids.

Much was learned upon that night.....alot was gained.

Yes, this experience will remain with him forever. Great story!

Pearl Jam rocks, you were pretty close to the stage.

Nice story Vitalogist. Don't think your son will ever forget that.
