Eddie Vedder - Betterman (East Troy '99)

[Cs82Hun]

E-pic.

[darkgreenforest]

Just so you folks know, the people Eddie pulled up on stage were plants. At the end of the set, he said so, then he said something along the lines of, "Those people are my friends. How does it feel to be lied to?" And then he tried to tie it to the Tibetan experience. The audienace was scratching their heads. It was lame. I was there and judging from the angles in this video, not to far from the person shooting. Everyone was there to see Rage and Beasties.

[burns985]

Eddie my hero singer. Great voice, great personality great character.

[cbproducktions]

Just found out it was a trick. Not nearly as cool. Eh...Great song tho

[jdubb131313]

@cbproducktions How do you know it was a trick?

[blasphemy12345]

[blasphemy12345]

I was in the crowd for this festival and it's amazing to sit and watch this 11 years later. Vedder's still amazing.

[KingKKevinKev]

this video gives me wings

[bluehiway04]

This is a cheesy set-up. Those guys are C-Average from Olympia, WA and had played with Eddie before...still a fun vid though.

[Neithie]

I didn't know he wrote this song... and awesome concert! I'm in love :D

[grascons]

this guys are c average, they can play but i dont think they knew this song but they played a couple of shows together

[LiveAtLeeds2]

[edenhaim]

@LiveAtLeeds2

לגמרי!!!!!!!!!

[jonatan14100]

@LiveAtLeeds2 שפיזל מיי ניזל

[steveo865]

both drummer and bass were good!! it would be sooo hard to just come out of the audience and play with Ed, he always changes lyrics and tone so to play with him on beat and in tune would be hard. Way too go!!!!!

[kreftacean]

Drummer kid's pretty good!

[CmasonRock]

Props to the Jammers, Was hoping for the harmonies in the tune, but bravo non the less!!

[larabi74]

all you need is a good song, and some players...Eddie rules! Up the jammers!

[shnozzel12]

Vedder has some freaking balls...and he fuckin proves it....

[Honestinhow]

my dream: play with Vedder

[themetalshop]

that kid on drums was incredible ..... awesome performer. its not easy being a drummer, and to be thrown to the lions - so to speak - he did an amazing job.... just fantastic..... glad it wasnt me, I woulda gone into slayer or rush or zeppelin by mistake, im a.d.d. that way.... lol

[nensiee]

So great to see this, was there 10 yrs ago at Alpine Valley ...ya it was f**kin awesome! Great to see this up...best concert in a long time...

[onthejobhazzards101]

is this real, forkin eddie. picks talented bums out of the audience.

[catonaruf]

No....it's Brad and Jon from C Average.

[onthejobhazzards101]

dis is the shizzle

[carsen96]

I love this man...

[happypicker102]

i must say best film i have seen all year TWO THUMBS UP

[alexdingleberry]

this is way better than the other live versions

[cdiddyxx1]

god i love this,

c average are amazing too

[dcflaggclawandorder]

holy mother of sweet goods and services.

[CourtyardPigeon]

Don't get carried away. Eddie pulled one over on everyone. Those guys play with Eddie on other shows and they are from a band that he likes. It was staged, but still entertaining.

[slapmastered]

Got proof of that?

[CourtyardPigeon]

Yes I do. Got to the search on here for videos and type in "C Average" and you'll see tons of videos with Eddie playing with them. You're welcome.

[mikeem07]

i bet them boys had a grin on their face for a while lol thats wicked!

[greendaykid10235]

I believe the drummer knew the song

[drummingwild]

i wish eddie still played that guitar!!!

[init4mojo]

Sweet! What a babe...

[PJ2277]

[jovo54]

Yea, I think he is pretty high. You can tell by his eyes :)

[jamie25280]

[60smindjunkie]

[miragy]

this doesnt make sense. they are not just some people from the crowd. they are the guys grom c-average. you can find them playing with eddie on other videos.

[kaBkEd]

That was the joke Miragy..

[miragy]
