The Chicago Cubs recently completed their first set of home games in a World Series since 1945. In a video purportedly filmed at a party “in the wee hours after Game 4” we see a pair of rock gods team up with an acting great and other attendees for a fun cover of a Band classic.

Famed Chicago Cubs fan Eddie Vedder led the Wrigley faithful on “Take Me Out To The Ballgame” during the seventh inning stretch in Chicago on Sunday. The previous evening he teamed with guitarist Derek Trucks to strum an acoustic rendition of “The Weight.” As the cover progresses the camera moves to capture Bill Murray singing along. Here’s hoping this is just the beginning of a DTrucks, Eddie Vedder bromance as we’d love to see them perform together again.
