This is freakin awesome. I wonder how it started. Could you imagine EV walking by, stopping and saying something like "hey man, mind if I try your guitar"?
I heard a bit more detail on the radio this morning, but heard only part of the story when I turned on my car. Found the tweet from Lin Brehmer of 93xrt I posted above. Apparently they're a local group that's been on XRT's local artist showcase hour before. At some point someone mentioned to them how big a Who fan EV is, and that's what first caught his attention when they played Pinball Wizard. That's some dedication though if it was hours and hours later when he played with them at night.
No time to be void or save up on life, you gotta spend it all.

I'd probably faint! Somebody would need to start an "Eddie helps resuscitate passed out fan" thread!

Those kids jam outside of Wrigley after most games, if not all of them. They're usually right next door to Murphy's Bleachers and they're pretty good, too! This probably wasn't the first time EV has caught wind of them.
I was tipped off with a photo from a friend before sharing this last night on Twitter. I'm a Cards fan. He is a Cubs fan and rubbed in how much it sucks I wasn't in Wrigley and that the Cards lost. I was convinced enough in photo it was him to share it... then found the videos.
There appears to be a professional video crew to the left as well in one of the instagram videos. I wonder if this will appear in a broadcast at some point?
Cards Fan here too, I was at the game Friday and had my Cardinals Pearl Jam shirt on but did not see where EV was during the game. Then had to head back out to the 'burbs to coach my daughter's game. Bummed that I did not get a chance to hang in the area after the game since an Eddie sighting was realistic, especially with his street performance. Got bummed out even further with the Sweep at the hands of the Cubs.

So cool to see things like this around Wrigley. Goes to show that the Let's Play Two film isn't some exaggerated view on his love for the Cubs and everything nearby.
