Watch Pearl Jam Dedicate ‘Man of the Hour’ to Bill Walton at Seattle Show

Pearl Jam dedicated their song "Man of the Hour" to Bill Walton at their Seattle show following his death.

Pearl Jam honored Bill Walton during their show at Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena, dedicating their song “Man of the Hour” to the NBA Hall of Famer who died earlier this week. His death was announced by the National Basketball Association, who released a statement from commission Adam Silver calling Walton “truly one of a kind… He redefined the center position.” Walton’s love for music made him a recognizable and beloved figure at classic rock shows, and he was known to occasionally pepper college basketball broadcasts with minutes-long monologues about Bob Dylan.
