May 12: Fan Fills in For Pearl Jam


Drummer Matt Cameron tested positive for COVID and was unable to perform during Pearl Jam’s tour stop in Oakland, so a trio of musicians stepped up to take his place. One was Josh Klinghoffer, the Pearl Jam touring member and former Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist. Another was Richard Stuverud, an Oakland-based drummer who's played in several side projects with Pearl Jam bassist Jeff Ament. But Cameron’s most unlikely substitute was Josh Arroyo, a local fan who Pearl Jam brought on stage to perform the closing song of the night, “Yellow Ledbetter.”
