More colossal news coming in today for Jazz Fest 2012 as organizers announced the addition of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band to close out the first weekend of the Festival on Sunday, April 29. This news comes the day after it was announced that Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder will play a solo show on Thursday, May 3. Bruce’s return had been speculated for months after he revealed that the band would be returning to the road after the loss of saxophonist Clarence Clemons in summer 2011 to tour in support of their new album Wrecking Ball which will be out in early-March. Additionally, now that the talent lineups (subject to change of course) are locked up, NOJHF announced the daily schedules for this year’s festival, enabling out-of-towner fans and to start making some concrete plans and Jazz Fest loyalists amongst the local crowd to decide how many days off will be necessary this year.

The lineup for the annual Bridge School Benefit was just leaked on a local radio station and Consequence of Sound was quick to pick up the story. As expected, Pearl Jam is making an appearance but it’s remarkably over-shadowed in a way by the likes of Buffalo Springfirled and Billy Idol on day one and Modest Mouse and Grizzly Bear both appearing at each day. What an eclectic mix. The two-day event will be held at Shoreline Ampitheater in Mountain View, CA on October 23-24, 2010. READ MORE

Billboard is reporting that Pearl Jam has been added to the Bridge School Benefit set for Shoreline Ampitheatre in Mountain View, CA on Oct. 23-24, 2010.

Pearl Jam fans, save the date: guitarist Stone Gossard says the closest thing to a 20th birthday gig for the band will be a slot on the bill of Neil Young’s annual Bridge School Benefit in Mountain View, Calif. on Oct. 23 and 24.

The show will serve as a 20th Anniversary gig of sorts for the band who have no other shows booked at the moment.

Update: the full lineup has been announced.

Our buddy Patrick did manage to zip up a few photos and shoot them my way, so here’s the few he got at Pearl Jam while they were simulcasting their set over to a local set of troops in Iraq.
