Danish fan Sofie went to see her second ever Eddie Vedder concert in Berlin – which was amazing, of course! Though she travelled to Germany alone, she ended up hanging out with many (new) Pearl Jam friends – and went on a little treasure hunt around town to try to meet Eddie.
After a night of meeting and drinking with other Pearl Jam fans, I met my Norwegian friend Cecilie in front of Hotel de Rome in the morning of the day of the concert. We waited for Eddie to come out for 4,5 hours in the burning sun, but nothing happened. A couple of friends showed up and kept us company for a while and we also talked to two German guys who also waited for Eddie. At noon, I got a tip that Eddie was at The Ramones Museum, and Cecilie and I got a cab – but when we got there, Eddie had already left the building. Cecilie and I hung out and got something to drink in the tiny, but awesome café/museum and the two German guys showed up too and joined us.
Danish contributor to Pearl Jam Nordic. Fan of Pearl Jam since 2015 where I saw the documentary Nine Rocks and heard Pearl Jam’s music. I later wrote my master thesis about Nine Rocks and Henrik Tuxen’s book In Pearl Jam’s Footsteps. I have attended a couple of Pearl Jam and Eddie concerts around Europe, but can’t wait to participate in more!
