Pearl Jam covered the Doobie Brothers hit "Takin' It to the Streets" during their stop at Madison Square Garden last night, all in the name of frontman Eddie Vedder saying happy birthday to an old friend.
It's no secret that the guys in Pearl Jam are Led Zeppelin fans, or that their 1998 single "Given to Fly" owes an obvious debt to Zeppelin's "Going to California."
In 1992, Pearl Jam fan Joe Wolfe, who attended the rising band's show at the Cincinnati club Bogart's, ran into several of the group's members at a local movie theater during a screening of 'Wayne's World.'
