Chili Peppers played classics such as “Soul to Squeeze”, “Suck My Kiss” and “By the Way”.
Vedder, in turn, led the event with a solo performance, but with Pearl Jam’s hit list.
This was the second time in just over a month that the musician performed along with RHCP. The previous time, the two played “Just What I Needed” by The Cars in honor of singer Ric Ocasek, who died on September 15.
