Pearl Jam Pay Tribute To Isaiah 'Ikey' Owens With Song (A Top Story)
. "We send our heart out to (Jack White) and his band," Billboard reports Vedder said from the stage. "The only thing we can do is try to take energy here (at the concert) so we can remember (Owens) fondly." They then played the song "Light Years" in his honor. According to The Detroit News, it was one of many shoutouts by Vedder during the 170-minute concert - including Dennis Rodman, former Detroit Red Wing Chris Chelios, Mudhoney bassist Matt Lukin, and John Lennon, whose 74th birthday was the previous week.
