This man never disappoints.
Pearl Jam front man Eddie Vedder has always made his stance on the war pretty clear (he's heavily AGAINST) and this past Friday night at a Portugal concert, he once again reminded us of that.
For the first time in his career, Eddie performed the John Lennon classic "Imagine" accompanied only by an acoustic guitar and his soaring vocals.
During his introduction to the song, Eddie had this to way:
"I think it is the most powerful song ever written, which is why I have never played it,"
"It seems like maybe there is a reason to play it."
"If you're anti-war it doesn't mean you are 'pro' one side or the other in a conflict," he said. "However, it does make you 'pro' many things...Pro-peace, pro-human, pro-evolution, [it] makes you pro-communication, pro-diplomacy, pro-love, pro-understanding, pro-forgiveness."
