Music
Music makes the people come together, so Jason is a firm believer of going to the music. His first ever concert should have been Nirvana in 1994, however it was sold out instantly, and he had to settle for Stone Temple Pilots a few months later. The rest of that year, as a 14 year old, Jason saw close to 10 shows in Vancouver, ranging from Bon Jovi to Veruca Salt.
Jason’s first Pearl Jam concert should have been the following year in Seattle, when they sent him free tickets for a fanclub only show. However, he was deemed too young by his parents to travel 3 hours into another country for a rock concert. So it wasn’t until they finally returned back to Vancouver in 1998, that Jason attended his first Pearl Jam show.
In 2005, Jason decided to combine 2 of his passions together and began travelling to shows. He has not looked back nor stopped since. This has been the journey thus far…..
