Watch Eddie Vedder Kick Fan Out of Wrigley Field Then Continue Playing Show

Rob Slater on August 23, 2016


From all accounts, Pearl Jam’s Wrigley Field run was a wild success. For one fan, it most certainly was not. 

Pearl Jam’s “Lukin,” a tune from their record written about a stalker issue Eddie Vedder was having as the band rose to intense fame in the 90s, runs all of 73 seconds. That’s all. So it’s amazing in itself to hear that Vedder actually had to stop the tune midway through to kick an aggressive fan out. But that is exactly what happened.

“Get your finger out of that woman’s face motherfffff,” Vedder snapped quickly before instructing the gentlemen to clear out towards the end of the band’s main set of their Wrigley finale last night. Vedder and the band checked on the woman in question before launching back into the last 8 seconds of “Lukin.” Fittingly, Lightning Bolt‘s “Mind Your Manners” followed.
