so today i did it, i finally met eddie vedder.
well, if you can meet someone without actually saying anything....
sean and i left from lansing around one thirty and drove to london ontario to see pearl jam, and we got there pretty early and didnt have much to do. we walked around the market some and got a bite to eat. after we ate, we walked back to the venue and when we walked around back we noticed some fans, about fifty or so gathered. while we were walking by they all the sudden got really loud and started talking really fast. thats when i see eddie vedder walk out of the back door by the buses. obviously im thinking "holy shit that cant actually be him". so he came out to talk to the fans before the show and stayed for about a half hour, he was extremely nice to everyone and signed a bunch of stuff. true to what i always knew i'd do, i couldnt say anything, i basically just kept thinking the same thing over and over....."i cant believe eddie vedder is like two feet in front of me.....i must have had a stupid grin on my face the whole time. anyone that knows me knows how badly ive wanted the opportunity to meet him, and for me this was enough. i didnt really need to say anything. so needless to say the day was unbelievable.
they played for about three hours and covered every album well, it was the best ive ever seen them. i need to get into another touring band right now.
its really hard to even describe how great my day was
