I confess that I used to hate Eddie Vedder’s vibrato-laden voice when he sang “Last Kiss”, but in early 2013 I heard “Yellow Ledbetter” for the first time and fell in love with Mike McCready’s plaintive guitar chords and Eddie’s garbled lyrics. It was just what I needed to send me into a Pearl Jam tizzy. I had, (and still do), quite a playlist of their hits on my iPod that I rocked out to, like “Black” and “Still Alive”. When I found out they were coming to Wrigley, I knew I needed to at least try for tickets.
