Eddie Vedder is a lame singer and in an era where all the well known musical entertainers are older or dying Mr Vedder has been able to carve a niche for him. How long it will last and he will be performing at places like ball parks and stadiums is unknown, but like I said the other more moneymaking acts are ageing. Mr Vedder is aging to ands his performance in a rain soaked Wrigley Field I am sure was nothing short of unspectacular.
Area residents who are mostly the age of Vedder's kids were awoken up to one or two in the morning as this silly concert was allowed to continue past the assigned curfew time agreed upon by residents with the Rickett's family. A rain delay should of been a cancellation but both sides wanted their money badly and the show had to continue. The fact that this ball park is whoring out to classless entertainers and musicians like Eddie Vedder should be taken to task. It ruins any baseball charm this field had and continues to tarnish this public "landmark". the fact is rich folks can afford to throw money to music events and they hold sway with politics and decisions to hold this concert very late. if they wanted to get this concert restarting at 4 am they would of done it. Bigtime concerts are a favorite leisure time activity of the ruling elites. They could care less about image of a ball park and turning rigley Field into another lame outdoor musical venue like Tinley park or old Popular creek in the Chicago area.
