See Pearl Jam, Sleater-Kinney, Brandi Carlile, a pair of Rock Hall drummers, actor Tim Robbins, a tennis great, a surfing legend and more celebrities go 'Rockin' in the Free World' to close out Ohana Fest with all-star jam
’s encore weekend Saturday with a rendition of Neil Young’s “Rockin’ in the Free World” with Sleater-Kinney, Brandi Carlile, Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins and more.
Prior to the song, frontman Eddie Vedder essentially invited every person watching from the stage’s wings to join the band onstage. The result was an eclectic mix of people including actor Tim Robbins, tennis legend John McEnroe and singer Patty Smyth, surfer Kelly Slater, Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith and guitarist Andrew Watt… basically, if you were a celebrity in the vicinity of Laguna Beach Saturday, there’s a good chance you ended up onstage at a Pearl Jam concert.
Sleater-Kinney, who performed earlier in the day at the Dana Point, California festival, especially made their presence felt during Pearl Jam’s traditional Young cover, with singer Corin Tucker handling the second verse during the all-star jam.
