Another video from Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder hanging out with his jam buddies outside Wrigley Field from a couple of weeks ago, and in this video Eddie’s big bad ass bodyguard is present! Watch video below.
Between songs in his set at the Pilgrimage Music & Cultural Festival — which closed out the third annual event in Franklin, Tenn. — Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder weighed in on President Trump’s tough talk concerning North Korea, and that nation’s nuclear capabilities.
He told the audience he’d read that a nuclear missile fired from North Korea could reach his home in Seattle in 30 minutes, and he’d thought of his wife and his two daughters.
“What would you do? You’d scream at the sky and go, ‘What the fuck? How could this fucking happen?’ But at that point, that’s not gonna do any good whatsoever. And if I’m not gonna be on a stage for a while, I’m gonna say it tonight, here in Nashville. What the fuck? Are you kidding us? Can you please stop? Just stop.”
“We all maybe need to raise our voices …” he continued. “We need to request and desire diplomacy. It’s something called diplomacy. It’s something called, you know, ‘outsmart your opponent.’ It’s called, ‘get them to do the thing that you want them to do, and have them think it was their idea.’ It’s called, ‘Quit fucking with the lives of millions and millions of people.'”
The packed field on Harlinsdale Farm roared in approval.
“All right,” Vedder added. “Now that I think that we’ve gotten that out of the way, I think it’s gonna be a great night.”
