Pearl Jam's closing set at the New Orleans Jazz Fest on Saturday will be broadcast live to members of the Louisiana National Guard serving in Iraq.

Some troops will also be able to speak (through video) with family members at Jazz Fest!

    This is such a good idea. If there is anyone more deserving of seeing a Pearl Jam show, it is soldiers serving overseas. Kudos to 10C and PJ for making this happen.
