Eddie Vedder has opened up about what felt like a “near-death experience” that caused the band to cancel shows in Berlin and London last week. Fans posted video of him telling the crowd in Barcelona over the weekend that “It felt like chest bronchitis. It felt like maybe you couldn’t breathe, and maybe you wouldn’t make it through the night”. No word on what ailed him.
I just listened to the audio from Ed’s speech talking about his illness. Haven’t seen it pop up on YouTube yet, but I’ll share when I do. If you listen to this and are still convinced that they canceled due to tickets sales, then I have absolutely nothing to say to you.
