While in Seattle, Sean Casey got to catch up with Eddie Vedder, Pearl Jam’s frontman, on Wednesday. Casey brought home with him quite the prize: a personalized Fender Telecaster that Vedder used in a recording.

“I can’t play guitar, I don’t think he knows that, but I’m going to learn now. I’ve always wanted to and this is going to be the incentive,” said Casey, a longtime Pearl Jam fan.

He said Vedder once paid a visit to Cincinnati when Casey played for the Reds and played a song in the clubhouse. Casey gave him a bat then. What goes around, comes around: On the back of the guitar, Vedder inscribed, “Love to you Sean, Eddie Vedder.”

I heard Youk on WAAF in the morning a couple of months ago and he said something to the effect of wanting PJ tik's for his up coming b-day.

Funny you should ask...I was at a golf benefit and met Brian Brohm. We had to wait to tee off and we starting talking. He mentioned Chicago being on the way to Green Bay. I said "yeah I'm going to see Eddie Vedder next month in Chicago." He said "Pearl Jam...I love Pearl Jam." Then I stopped cause I was just about to reach stalker status. Hey I know my limits:D

Rocking with the Sox: Sean Casey
By Tom Kielty / Rocking with the Sox
Wednesday, August 6, 2008 - Updated 16h ago


Red Sox reserve Sean Casey has a reputation as perhaps the nicest guy in the game, earning the nickname, the Mayor. Judging from his easy interaction with his Sox teammates, it’s well deserved.

In the midst of answering a question about his most recent musical purchase (“Into The Wild” by Eddie Vedder on CD), he is playfully interrupted by third baseman Mike Lowell interjecting “Barry Manilow!”

When Casey is asked what tunes fill his iPod, it’s shortstop Julio Lugo’s turn to interrupt by shouting “reggaeton!”

In reality, the first baseman is a musical throwback.

“Oh, man, I have so many songs,” he says. “A lot of country, a lot of ’70s. I love the soft rock from back then. When I want to chill it’s like Jackson Browne and that kind of music. I have a lot of rock. I love everything from Pearl Jam to Fleetwood Mac.”

And country music. He says his most recent concert experience was seeing “Brooks and Dunn and Rodney Atkins after we played a day game in Cincinnati.” As for his first live show, it was perhaps a harbinger of his current employer. “It was (the band) Boston at the Pittsburgh Civic Arena,” Casey says. “I was in seventh grade.”
