Pearl Jam debuted a new song at their recent concert in Moline, Illinois. Bringing along his guitar onstage, the band's frontman Eddie Vedder unexpectedly sang the track titled "Moline" for the crowd who packed the city's iWireless Center.
According to Rolling Stone, the song named after the Quad Cities town was written by Vedder just minutes before the show. "Moline, it seems, this is for me. You can call me Nancy and I live in Moline," Vedder sings on the track, which is about a woman who leaves Detroit for Moline.
The new song wasn't the only surprise Pearl Jam had for fans at their Moline gig. That night, the band also performed all the songs from their 1996 album "No Code". It marked only the second time Pearl Jam performed a studio album in its entirety during a live performance. They played all tracks on their 2006 self-titled set during a show in Italy in September of the same year.
