VIDEO: Pearl Jam reunite Temple Of The Dog at Alpine Valley

Jaws were dropping and fans online were wishing they were there as Pearl Jam celebrated their 20th Anniversary on Day 1 of their PJ20 Destination Weekend Saturday night in Alpine Valley.

PJ are being joined for the event by The Strokes, Queens Of The Stone Age, Mudhoney and almost 10 other acts...and many of them crossed paths with the mighty PJ during the band’s opening night set.

Julian Casablancas, Josh Homme, Glen Hansard, Liam Finn, Dan Peters, Dhani Harrison and Chris Cornell all joined PJ for the main set, whose highlight was the Temple Of The Dog reunion with Cornell as part of the night’s encores.

TOTD was formed as a tribute to Mother Love Bone singer Andrew Wood, who passed away following a heroin overdose in 1990. MLB’s lineup included guitarist Stone Gossard and bassist Jeff Ament, who would go on to form Pearl Jam following MLB’s demise.

Cornell first appeared for the Mother Love Bone track, “Stardog Champion,” followed by three of TOTD’s biggest songs: “Say Hello 2 Heaven,” “Reach Down” and “Hunger Strike.”

PJ does it all over again Sunday for Day 2 of the PJ20 festival.
