U-Jam

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

U-Jam was a moniker that was used by Pearl Jam, Bono and The Edge when they played at the Make Poverty History Concert in Melbourne, Australia on November 17, 2006.

The group performed "Rockin' in the Free World", by Neil Young and helped deliver a powerful message. They kicked off the evening, with Bono declaring, "Politicians have to do what you tell them to do!". They were introduced by Dave Hughes, and Bono said during their performance "Pearl Jam.... U2.... We offer you: U-Jam". They were followed by Eskimo Joe.

U2 and Pearl Jam also joined in performance of "Rockin' in the Free World" on December 9th 2006 at the Aloha Stadium in Hawaii at the finale show of U2's Vertigo Tour where Pearl Jam played as one of the support acts at that show.
