Hotel Pearl Jam

The other night I had one of those dreams that just won’t end. You know what I mean? Those dreams that really have no story-line but just keep going around and around and around until you almost wish you’d just wake up to stop the monotony.

In this dream I was in a quaint little setting much like that of MTV’s Unplugged set. I was sitting up front in a folding chair and had been pleased (although not excited) that I was about to see another show. It’d been a while.



Oh, I suppose I ought to mention that I’ve always referred to “concerts” as shows.

Anyway, sure enough Pearl Jam comes out and they play “I’m Still Alive.” The dream goes on and so does the song. But it gets to the point where I start getting annoyed and wonder if they’re ever going to play another song. EVER.

Then, as dreams have a habit of doing, I jump into another scene where some other uneventful thing happens… But then the next thing I know I’m back in my seat at the Pearl Jam concert awaiting the arrival of the band, and the whole scenario starts over again.

It was all very “Hotel California” and just too creepy for me, and I was glad when I woke up.

It makes me wonder, though. Is my psyche telling me something? Or maybe I'm just feeling like my life is going around and around in circles? Or maybe it's because Phil mentioned "I'm Still Alive" in his blog? Hm. Yeah, I think I'll just blame it on Phil. ;)

  1. Hi! I have those kinds of dreams too; except when mine get stuck I can't seem to switch scenes. I'll be listening to the same song until I wake up! LOL At least yours changed scenes a little bit! :P

    Have a great day!

  2. Concert: To dream that you are at a concert, represents harmony and cooperation in a situation or relationship in your waking life. You are experiencing an uplift in your spirits.

  3. Emily - Yeah, I was a little surprised that it switched scenes but then would revert back to Pearl Jam again. Weird.

    Terri - I hope your dream dictionary definition is right! :)
