One of those bands that touch a person at a certain point in life and time. Memories of good times - like early adulthood - that can be put to music like PJ, RHCP, Nirvana, etc. Kinda like Growing Up Music version 2 (Version 1 being teenage years).

I'll always associate that music with what I listened too at a good time (today's times are good but a different good), playing on the Juke Box at the primary hang out, the beers, the lasses, the darts, the camaraderie - and the essence of those days that can launch out of the recesses of the brain when a particular song comes out on the radio...

IMO, Pearl Jam is no Pink Floyd, but maybe more like the AC/DC of the 80s translated into the 90s...

Cool story Jim...
