'It’s hard to come to terms at this point, but he’s gonna be deeply missed' eddievedder honored 'one-of-a-kind singer' Mark Lanegan during his show last night in Seattle. Concert review via CorbinReiff:
“I got here at four o’clock and all of a sudden, my body started shaking and I started feeling really terrible,” he told the crowd of 2,500 people packed into Seattle’s Benaroya Hall. “I had an allergic reaction to sadness.”
It was an extremely heavy moment, but something of an anomaly amidst one of the more joyous concert performances Vedder has delivered in many years.

The mood in the air was decidedly light. At times, Benaroya Hall felt more like the scene of a big family reunion than a concert. “It’s Seattle…so I know a lot of you,” the singer explained. It was the kind of show where anything could happen. And it often did. At one point, there was a full-blown marriage proposal down near the front row. “Congratulations for starting a new chapter,” Vedder boomed to the happy couple. Then, pointing to the groom-to-be, he offered some advice. “Don’t fuck this up.”
