Watch Eddie Vedder Perform At President Obama’s Farewell Address
President Barack Obama delivered a farewell address in his Chicago hometown tonight, and once again, several famous and talented musicians showed up to support him. (Suck it, Trump.) R&B singer BJ The Chicago Kid sang the national anthem, and Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder covered Neil Young’s “Rockin’ In The Free World” and Patti Smith’s “People Have The Power” with some help from the Chicago Children’s Choir. Watch below.
