Eddie Vedder was spotted performing on the streets of Chicago, IL twice this weekend. On Friday night, it was in celebration of the Chicago Cubs win outside of Wrigley Field. Upon exiting the stadium, the Pearl Jam frontman joined a group of street performers, now identified as Manuel Miller on guitar and Jack James McKee on drums, to jam on “The Seeker” by The Who and PJ’s “Corduroy.” Vedder borrowed Miller’s guitar for the spontaneous jam on Friday night, then returned once again on Sunday to play on drums.
Clips from both performances have been compiled in the following video, uploaded by PearlJamOnLine.it:
Pearl Jam do not have any future dates scheduled, but are currently promoting Let’s Play Two, a documentary film that chronicles Pearl Jam’s legendary performances at Wrigley Field during the Chicago Cubs historic 2016 season. With Chicago being a hometown to Eddie Vedder, Pearl Jam has forged a relationship with the city, the Chicago Cubs, and Wrigley Field that is unparalleled in the world of sports and music. The documentary film shuffles through Pearl Jam’s ever-growing catalog of originals and covers–spanning the band’s 25-year career. Through the eyes of renowned director/photographer Danny Clinch and the voice of Pearl Jam, the film showcases the journey of this special relationship. Screenings begin later this month in Chicago, NYC, Pleasantville, Port Chester, and Baton Rouge. All details can be found here.
