Hi Brad and Brad, I love concept albums.  For the last couple of weeks, I've been saturating myself in them and it got me to thinking: Can I stitch one together from Pearl Jam's studio albums?  I know there are some rumors that Avocado was in some ways a concept album, however the band has publicly denounced it as such.  I read up on some of my favorite concept albums and really focused in on The Wall (Pink Floyd) and Quadrophenia (The Who). My idea was to create a character in the same vein those two records did.  What I came up with is the following: - A boy grows up in a broken home with an abusive father (My Father's Son, Blood) - His mother convinces him to run away to live a better life (Breath, Go) - The boy breaks free, grows up and finds love (Given To Fly, Thin Air, Parachutes) - While in love, he begins to see himself as his father (Pendulum) - He tells his love his fear of hurting her (I Got Id) - She says she's not leav
