Since founding legendary alt-rock band Pearl Jam in 1990, Eddie Vedder has earned international recognition as a powerful vocalist and skilled guitar player, landing at No. 7 spot of Rolling Stone’s Best Lead Vocalists of All Time. Ticket buyers are often stunned by his performance style, which includes precise guitar solos and introductory lead-ins to many of his most famous songs, giving audience members more than just a music show, but a lesson in the history of both Vedder and his collaborators. He also features many different styles of songs. Even though he is most famous for his power ballads, audience members still get an eclectic array of songs from his concert catalogue. In May of 2011, Vedder released his second solo studio album, entitled "Ukulele Songs," which featured a collection of covers performed by Vedder on the Ukulele. Its major single, "Longing to Believe," launched the album to acclaim shortly after its release.
Vedder is most well-known for his work in Pearl Jam, particularly with albums like "Ten," which rose to No. 207 of Rolling Stone’s list for Top 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. During his time with Pearl Jam, Vedder received numerous nominations for Grammys, as well as a Golden Globe award for Best Original Song in 2008 for his single, "Guaranteed," from "Into the Wild." Since his beginnings in the 1980s, Eddie Vedder has become a household name for many rock enthusiasts and is known as one of the most influential people in the music business. He's also considered one of the most influential people in the philanthropy field, particularly with his winning of the 2007 Environmentalist of the Year award from SIMA Waterman’s Honorees.
Eddie Vedder is beyond amazing ... completely stripped down...naked voice, naked guitar.. a few loops and him....... it was fantastic. He's so much more than a rock star - he's a musician in the real sense.... I'm so glad I was there!!!!
One of the best shows I have seen. I have seen Pearl Jam countless times, but this was an unforgetable experience!! Eddie really connected with the audience, telling stories asking feedback. He even messed up a few songs and that made the experience very real!! The venue was excellent for this show!
Just like the wine he often (over)indulges in, Ed keeps getting better with age. That baritone fills a room like the Palace like no one else can.
I thought the show was absolutely incredible. Being it my first experience at the Palace and first Eddie Vedder show I thought it an absolute pair. The venue was large but still small enough to have an intimate gathering of fans. I was rather far away up in the highest tier. I personally would have liked to be closer but with binoculars the view was just fine.
Eddie's solo set list contains most of his solo album/soundtrack "Into The Wild." He also will play some Pearl Jam & a couple cover tunes. He is an incredible singer/songwriter & his voice truly GOLDEN!!
amazing show, when you think he cant get anybetter he always surprises, the songs were great and playing in a place like the Palace made it feel like it was a get together.
These were probably the best shows I've ever been to. Eddie was engaging, told stories, connected with the audience and impressed with his musicianship. He's amazing. I am hopefully awaiting more solo shows in the future, but also very excited about Pearl Jam's upcoming tour!
As expected Eddie came ready to play but I also expected him to be loose as this was the first show of a solo tour. I was right on both accounts. He was great all night. Very cool with the crowd. Made some mistakes and took it in stride as did the audience. This is part of what I like about him and Pearl Jam for that matter. They take chances and if it doesn't work ?, so what. He is smart to be getting this solo thing going at this stage of his career as he can do this forever, whereas fronting Pearl Jam definitely takes more energy as time goes by. There is no doubt he will continue to do this and do it well. I was stoked on how good he was and can't wait to see him solo again. Of course a good Pearl Jam tour coming up won't suck either, but I think he really stepped up this night in Albany and will continue to do so for years to come. Bottom line, if he tours solo again in your town and you are a fan don't miss it. A very different approach to the music that makes him and his band what they are. Great stuff. He was loose, cool, sang great, and interacted with the crowd. It's just a smaller more intimate experience with just him up there. I'll definitely see it again that's for sure.
The show was awesome! The palace theater was agreat venue for Eddie to play in. With a smaller, more intimate venue, there is not one bad seat in the whole house. Eddie was great! After the show, he came out and we got to shake hands and meet him. It was an amazing experience!
I thought it was wonderful. Nice to sit and listen to a great singer and guitar player. I have nothing bad to say at all
