In mid-July my friends from MA, ID and OR came to visit me... Actually they mostly came to town to see the Eddie Vedder solo concert in Seattle at Beneroya Hall. The show was really incredible. One of the best shows I've been to. Between My Morning Jacket in June and Eddie Vedder in July I saw some incredible music being played this summer and I still have Pearl Jam in WI coming up in September!
Opening for Eddie was Glen Hansard from the bands The Frames and Swell Season. The only song I knew from him was Falling Slowly (a Swell Season song) which won an Academy Award in 2007. He completely blew me away and I've since added his music to my playlist!
During Eddie's set Glen came out and sang a couple songs with him. At one point Eddie and Glen stepped away from the microphones and sang Sleepless Nights from Eddie's Ukeulele Songs album. Here is that performance:
Truly an incredible goosebump moment while sitting in the crowd!
Fun ... a good concert makes great memories and photo ops

I love that album! I have the whole thing on my ipod. Awesome performance! I have never seen him live and must make a point of doing so.
