Global Citizen have shared some incredible footage from their recent VAX LIVE: The Concert To Reunite The World event, including Eddie Vedder tearing through Pearl Jam's Corduroy and a cover of I Am A Patriot.

Ed was joined by former Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist Josh Klinghoffer, plus members of White Reaper, for the two-song set, which featured a high-energy run through of the Vitalogy track, as well as the Steven Van Zandt rendition.

In a behind-the-scenes video from the SoFi Stadium show, Eddie said, "What we've just been through in the last year-and-a-half, it's something that everyone had to deal with. Now that we have vaccines it's important to make sure that the vaccines can be distributed to everyone who needs it.
