Bradley Cooper recently made a surprise appearance at a Pearl Jam concert, joining lead singer Eddie Vedder on stage to perform “Maybe It’s Time” from the movie “A Star Is Born.” The performance took place at the BottleRock Napa Valley festival as part of Pearl Jam’s Dark Matter Tour.
Pearl Jam is known for incorporating covers into their encores, with past performances including songs by Tom Petty, Warren Zevon, and Tom Waits. The addition of “Maybe It’s Time” to their setlist was well-received by fans, especially with Bradley Cooper adding his star power to the performance.
Cooper’s connection to Eddie Vedder runs deep, as Vedder served as an inspiration for Cooper’s character in “A Star Is Born.” Cooper spent time with Vedder to learn the intricacies of being a musician, and their reunion on stage was a fitting tribute to their shared passion for music.
While “Maybe It’s Time” was a highlight of the concert, it was “Shallow” that garnered the most acclaim, winning multiple awards including an Academy Award and two Grammys. Despite the success of the song, there have been some critics who questioned its accolades.
Pearl Jam will soon wrap up the North American leg of their tour before heading to Europe, with plans to return to the States in August. Fans are left wondering which cover songs the band will tackle next and if Bradley Cooper will make another surprise appearance.
