Pearl Jam cancel Vienna gig: Eddie Vedder’s voice “damaged”
Pearl Jam have canceled their July 20 gig at Vienna’s Wiener Stadthalle, because frontman Eddie Vedder damaged his vocal cords during their outdoor concert in Paris, on July 17.
The band issued a statement via social media, in which they explain “heat, dust and smoke” from the wild fires in France affected the singer’s voice.

(1/3) To all those who were anticipating a great Pearl Jam show tonight in Vienna, we were too. However, due to the extreme circumstances at the last outdoor site outside of Paris (heat, dust, and smoke from the fires) our singer Ed Vedder’s throat was left damaged. pic.twitter.com/Aa3LWclluB— Pearl Jam (@PearlJam) July 20, 2022
