Pearl Jam deserves an award!

Tell me how easy it is for a band to play a show for almost 3 hours?! That's what Ed and the boys did on Friday night at the Corel Center in Ottawa! I didn't even notice the length of the concert as I was basically in a state of love and trust all throughout the show. My friends Mike and Louise managed to get floor seats and my seats were 8 rows up from the floor, right beside the stage! What a great vantage point for pictures. Yes, I managed to sneak in my camera, that was so easy...Now I just need to borrow one from work with a stronger zoom for the concert on Monday night.
Even the crappy weather couldn't lower our spirits as we traveled up to the nations capital with my good friends Mike and Louise, with my buddy Shayne as my 'date' :) We laughed and listened to some tunes on the way up and discussed the various concerts we had experienced together. After a quick tour through Ikea, we hit Montana's for dinner. It was funny to see Shayne order off the 'little troopers' kids menu as he ordered a beer!
Off to the Corel we went. The traffic was heavy, but Mike is a highly trained professional when it comes to darting through many lanes of traffic. I'm so glad he was driving! The boys dropped us off in 6 lanes of traffic so we could go pick up our tickets. I couldn't believe how packed the inside of the building was! So many different PJ shirts were flooding the sea of bodies. I didn't have time to look at the m all.
When we got to our seats, we looked down on the floor and spotted Mike and Louise in their spot. Man, I'm so glad I wasn't on the floor as I'm short and would end up with some 6 footer standing in front of me!
Its ironic that Shayne, myself & Mike and Louise all filled our memory cards before the show was done. We all spent time going back and deleting some of the fuzzier pictures to try and take better ones before the end of the concert.
Enough of the talk, here are a few pictures of mine that actually turned out.

This one was taken as Ed was looking right at me:)




I have a few of Mike and Louises pictures as well, but wont bother posting them as I didn't take them:)
Today will be spent out on the great lake...it will probably be the last time we will be able to take the boat out for a run!
Come on MONDAY!!!!!
