Throwback Thursday | Neil Young & Pearl Jam Video Highlights

Last week the lineup for this year’s Bridge School benefit concerts was announced and the two names a top the bill are Pearl Jam and Neil Young. Neil and Pearl Jam have collaborated a number of times over the years, most prominently on a 1995 studio album, Mirror Ball, and an 11-date, Vedder-less European tour in August 1995.

We’re hoping Pearl Jam and Young perform together at the Bridge School benefits on October 25 and 26 as we’ve really enjoyed their past performances. We’ve compiled a handful of those “Neil Jam” performances for your viewing pleasure:
