Pearl Jam Kick Off 2022 Tour: Photos, Videos and Set List

Pearl Jam launched their 2022 tour in San Diego last night, marking their first live performance of the year.

Former Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist Josh Klinghoffer opened the show with his solo band Pluralone before joining Pearl Jam for the rest of the evening. (Klinghoffer will perform with the band for the entirety of the tour.)

Pearl Jam then performed a 24-song set that included classics like “Better Man,” “Jeremy” and “Daughter,” as well as songs from their most recent album, 2020’s Gigaton, including “Retrograde,” “Who Ever Said” and “Dance of the Clairvoyants.”

You can see the set list, fan-filmed videos and photos from the show below.

Pearl Jam had originally been scheduled to tour in 2020 in support of Gigaton but were forced to postpone the dates due to the COVID-19 pandemic. They’re making up the missed dates with this current tour, which also added four other dates to the itinerary.

Singer Eddie Vedder, who released a solo album, Earthling, in February, performed a short solo tour earlier this year.
