Keep on rockin' in the free world...

Last weekend, we drove to Camden, New Jersey to see Pearl Jam. Camden is just a few miles away from Philadelphia. Camden is the ghetto. All around the arena there was nothing but abandoned warehouses, saloons with bars on the windows, and rundown liquor stores. But the venue was nice and we had a good time.

We went with another couple, Ryan and Maren Vogel. We refer to them collectively as The Vogue. Here we are enjoying the show.

Here's a shot of the stage from where we were sitting. We had pretty good seats, and we had a really good time. Camden is a 3-4 hour drive from DC, so we stayed overnight in Philadelphia and drove home in the morning. Bryan was completely hoarse the next day, because he was shout-singing along with every song. One of our very first dates was a concert, so I was somewhat prepared for what Bryan would do at this show, but he really took his performance to a whole new level.

Good ol' Pearl Jam!!!! How many times have you seen them Bryan? or is it just talked about wanting to see them. It sounds like you had a blast. Good Times on the East Coast!
