Eddie Vedder's (brief) solo outing
Submitted by imaginary stella on February 16, 2008.Just received word through the Pearl Jam fanclub (don't judge!) that frontman Eddie Vedder will make a short solo-tour jaunt down the West coast. The "April Fools" tour starts April 2 in Vancouver, BC, then Ed hops on down to sunny California for a handful more dates. My speculation is the show will contain a lot of material off the highly acclaimed "Into the Wild" soundtrack, peppered with a few EdVed-penned PJ songs, and probably a cover or two.
It looks like Mr. V is skipping his Seattle hometown, a notion that has me pondering if that's the big "April Fool's" joke on us...Perhaps a Tour Eve kickoff show, the night before? Here's hoping!
Pre-sale for current PJ fan club members starts on Monday, followed by the general sale next Friday.

Oh, damn! Sounds like the suprise EdVed show that I predicted indeed took place -- a week earlier than April Fool's Day. Vedder showed up at a Monday night screening of "Into the Wild" at West Seattle's Kenyon Hall, and played through 90 minutes of material. Sad I was out of town and missed this! Did anyone luck out and catch the set?
