Pearl Jam fans were in for a treat on Sunday night (July 1). During a concert at Prague's O2 Stadium, singer Eddie Vedder stripped it down a little and played an acoustic, solo set in the middle of the gig. During his one man show, the 53-year-old performed a stripped down rendition of The Beatles' "Help!" followed by “Help Help” off of Pearl Jam's 2002 album Riot Act.
The massive crowd helped him out (pun intended) by singing along to the iconic tune. Though it was a little hard to follow, considering Vedder put his own somber take on the track.
Watch the performance below.
In June, the band was forced to cancel the London stop of their European tour when Vedder lost his voice, rescheduling the date for July 17. The Seattle grunge rockers will have a few weeks off before embarking on a tour playing at American baseball parks in August.
Paul McCartney recently joined James Corden on a special edition of Carpool Karaoke that saw the pair visit the Beatle's hometown of Liverpool and surprise an unsuspecting pub with an intimate concert from the iconic musician and his band. Though they didn't sing "Help!" the nearly 30-minute-long episode featured some of the most classic songs in the Beatles' collection.
