A unique piece of Pearl Jam memorabilia is up for sale.
The 1993 MTV VMA Moonman for Best Metal/Hard Rock Video is up for sale at Rockaway.com. Pearl Jam won that honor for their classic clip for “Jeremy.”
Per the listing, the award was presented to the band’s former manager Kelly Curtis. It’s described as, “Beautiful vintage one of a kind award statue. Some of the paint on the “M” of “MTV” has flaked off. Two cracks on front and back of the base, by the planted foot, appears to be a manufacturing flaw because the figure is still very secure.”
The Moonman listing isn’t an auction but is actually a literal sale listing. So, how much does it cost to get a unique piece of Pearl Jam history? A cool $20,000.
There’s a good chance you don’t have $20K just lying around, so you might be better off trying to snag some tickets to one of Pearl Jam’s upcoming tour dates. The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame band is playing a series of select shows beginning on August 31 in St. Paul, Minn. While some shows are sold out, some dates still have tickets available. A full list of dates and compete ticket information can be found at PearlJam.com.
