I’ve wanted to share my impressions of the Pearl Jam concert I attended in Charlotte on 10/30 for some time now.  Fortunately, the birth of my baby boy delayed my efforts.  This life changing (and affirming) event has easily surpassed anything I have ever experienced.  It was the best concert I will ever attend and I had a front row seat!

With that said the other concert, Pearl Jam, was great.  I went with my friend Dave and we had a blast.  I even managed to sneak down to the floor and get some pretty amazing photos.  The band hadn’t played in Charlotte for 10 years and they definitely made up for lost time.  The show was phenomenal!  In many ways Nirvana and Pearl Jam are my generation’s Beatles and Rolling Stones.   Seeing them made me long for that fruitful period of Rock n’ roll that defined my youth.  I often wonder if a new set of bands will ever be allowed to define music the way the bands from that era did . . .
