PEARL JAM - VEDDER JOINS X STARS AT INAUGURAL PARTY
PEARL JAM star EDDIE VEDDER stunned BARACK OBAMA fans at an Inauguration Day party in Seattle, Washington on Tuesday night (20Jan09) when he stepped up onstage to perform with punk icons JOHN DOE and EXENE CERVENKA.
Vedder and bandmates Jeff Ament and Mike MCCready had managed to blend in with the crowd at the packed Tractor Tavern club when Doe called the Alive singer up onstage.
Keeping a low profile in a black hat, he duetted with Cervenka on a rendition of X’s fan favourite The New World, and then used Doe's torso as a drum for another tune.
As he left the stage, Doe joked, "Thank you, man in the black hat."
"I'd rather be with an animal." "Those that can be trusted can change their mind." "The in between is mine." "If I don't lose control, explore and not explode, a preternatural other plane with the power to maintain." "Yeh this is living." "Life is what you make it."
Nowhere near as cool, but I pissed next to a player from my favourite football team. I said 'hey big T'(His nickname) We had a quick chat and then he walked straight out without washing his hands. And I did the old mental note. Never shake Big T's hand.

Now now settle down chicas! Guy's privates are only his and his woman's business. Oh wait was that what you wanted to ask?
Also was the show crowded?
I have no patience for bad music and stupid people...
The whole world will be different soon the whole world will be RELIEVED
I also partied with a Coronah that night! miles and miles away here in Israel.. But it was a party felt around the world that night. I am so happy for this sane choice of a future, hope for the best and Ed - keep rockin out!
until the end of your story, I thought I would read "then I woke up, it was just a dream..."
But no, your story's true. I'm jealous.

I'm glad everyone seems to be liking the story, here I thought maybe I should have done more. Now I'm content with just being able say I rocked out with my cock out....next to Eddie Vedder.
To answer a question the show was packed, but I heard the previous night had sold out. It didn't seem to me that it was sold out, but it was plenty full.
Thanks everyone.
btw, I have a video I shot with my iPhone of Eddie performing with the Knitters. It is not great but still cool. I'll post a link for Youtube as soon as I SSH into my iPhone tonight, I've been slacking on it.
hysterical!
i wonder how many have similar stories? b/c a guy in my husband's band, a huge who fan....also pee'd next to ed at a townshend tribute or something quite a few years ago.....but they actually had a convo about pete, music, etc...while in the men's room. hahaha.
I'm a straight guy, but I would have been tempted to do a quick-glance to be able to say:
"oh, you got Ed's autograph? well I saw his wang... top that."
Comments
That would be the worst place to say "Bumps!"

I was just thinking the same thing....there should be a Hall of Fame for best threads, and I'd vote for this one...great story.
go ahead ask it...

Haha - only joking.
Nice story though - I like the fact you didn't harass any of the guys and just let them enjoy a show!
