Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder honored Bruce Springsteen with a song at his Pittsburg concert in an apparent dig at Donald Trump just hours after the president savaged Springsteen for criticizing him on stage.
Vedder didn’t mention Trump’s name, but he sang Springsteen’s ballad “My City of Ruins” from the album Rising at the concert last Friday with the refrain: “Rise up, rise up.“ Springsteen wrote “My City of Ruins” lamenting the deterioration of Asbury Park in New Jersey, but it also became a song of hope after 9/11.
