See Pearl Jam Cover ‘My City of Ruins’ in Solidarity With Bruce Springsteen After Trump Tirade


Hours after Trump's tirade, Pearl Jam showed solidarity with Bruce Springsteen with a cover of "My City of Ruins" at their Pittsburgh concert Friday.

On the same day Donald Trump unleashed a social media tirade aimed at Bruce Springsteen, Pearl Jam showed solidarity with the E Street rocker with a cover of “My City of Ruins” during the band’s concert Friday in Pittsburgh. While Vedder didn’t mention to the Springsteen/Trump situation prior to the performance, the crowd was keenly aware of the president’s Truth Social tantrum, chanting “Bruuuuuuce!” when the song ended. “My City of Ruins” has been a staple at Springsteen’s current run of concerts, with the singer using his introduction to the track to deliver his biting remarks on the state of America: “There’s some very weird, strange, and dangerous shit going on out there,” he told the Manchester crowd.
