What do you do when you want to close out a concert with energy? Cover The Who!! Nobody has ever encompassed chaotic energy better than The Who. Their songs are iconic. Their energy unrivaled. Great job Pearl Jam. I don't think anyone covers The Who better.

Man, it tells you how important, powerful and influential, the Who and this song, were when Pearl Jam fans correctly sing along 45 years after the release of the album the song was originally on.

Pearl Jam knocked this one right out of Fenway Park. Superb rendition of Baba O'riley and a tribute to the WHO one of the greatest rock bands.

If there is one band that I've grown up with that has never let me down it's Pearl Jam.

Best PJ show I ever saw…..That band, Fenway Park, that City, this song…..I literally cried when watching them…..one of the greatest moments of my life…..

the best cover of BAba O'riley, the rock classics never grow old, sounds just like the original by the who 40 + years ago, great stuff.

Eddie vedder is the greatest rock star of all time. The way he projects his barratone voice with an organic release of emotion is unparalleled. The doors asked him to induct them into the hall of fame and perform with them on that night. John densmore said they would not perform without him. he has earned the respect, love and graced the stage with The who, bruce springsteen, stevie nicks, glen hansard, tom petty, neil young, coldplay, chris cornell, the rolling stones, R.E.M to name just a few and there are many more and in these moments he delivers earth shattering performances. He covered u2s elevation and One at their kennedy center honors ceremony and left the band speachless. he was asked to induct the Ramones, R.E.M., neil young and the doors as mentioned earlier into the hall of fame. He has done all of this while climbing and jumping off scaffolds singing porch and gave the greatest unplugged perfomance to boot. If you doubt any of this you are just hating on reality. look it all up on YouTube its right here✌ children

Always admired and been a PJ fan. I commend them for giving up a lot of their shows back in the 90’s taking on Ticketmaster. That was a huge thing to do. I’m 50 now and would still love to see these guys live.

[GrtSatan]

Nice one. What a wonderful and gracious way to give a thanks to the fans. Huge props.

[ledbetter]

You can tell he’s a sports fan and understands that all sports fans are united. Very cool!

My favorite band as an adult playing the best song of the group that was my favorite as a kid. Truly awesome.

[nancyferranti]

[robthornton]

As a huge Who fan since I was 16, and that's a very, very long time ago 😀 Pearl Jam and Eddie do THE best job of recreating the energy of the Who on stage. I loved this video - thanks for uploading 👍🖖

I saw The Who do this song on November 20, 1971 at the Charlotte Coliseum, and Pearl Jam's version is absolutely spectacular—they transform the song into something a little different, but equally impressive. A singularly great interpretation of a singularly great song by a singularly great band. Thanks, Pearl Jam!
