It was late summer 1991, I remember the buzz surrounding this new alternative band that all my friends were talking about called Pearl Jam. I grew up in small town Northern Ontario and the only radio station in town, although multi-genre, would never play anything by a band like Pearl Jam so I took a leap of faith and bought their debut album…Ten. I was hooked, I loved everything about it. The sound, the lyrics…everything it was, at the time anyway, groundbreaking. On Sunday night Eddie Vedder, Stone Gossard, Jeff Ament and Dave Krusen took me and about 15,000 other fans on a trip down memory lane at Canadian Tire Centre in Ottawa.
