Rock Report: Eddie Vedder Surprise Guest At Bridge School Benefit
Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder made a brief surprise appearance at the first day of Neil Young's 26th Bridge School Benefit at Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, California on Saturday. Other than that, things went pretty much according to schedule, the only exception being an unexplained switch in running order, with Guns N' Roses following Jack White's set and Vedder's guest shot -- thereby taking the final slot before Young and Crazy Horse closed the evening out
Eddie Vedder Blasts Mitt Romney Over ’47 Percent’ Comments
Pearl Jam singer Eddie Vedder blasted Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney over the latter's "47 percent" comments during a fundraiser for incumbent President Barack Obama, according to the Associated Press. Romney has drawn harsh criticism for comments he made at a May fundraiser, which were disclosed last week on a video, in which he characterized the approximate 47 percent of the U.S. population that doesn't pay federal income tax -- while still paying a number of other taxes -- as people who saw themselves as victims entitled to government handouts.
