The best part is there was only one kid with his phone out (as shown on video) and he was just recording his friend skating. Everybody else were just enjoying the moment to keep it in the best archive in the world, Their minds.

[@sheldon6248]

Just an amazing act of human kindness and what this does for those kids is huge. I met my wife at my first Pearl jam concert 32 years ago and we're huge fans and in my experience only good energy comes out of Pearl Jam 😊👍 Your amazing Jeff 👍

[@Austinnolavegas]

Watched 2 PJ shows from 92 tonite (Milan & Marquette). Then I found this. They keep reaching new levels of respect & amazement from me 32 yrs later. Good souls committed to enhancing the lives of millions thru their music, social consciousness & ability to bring people together in a divided world. PJ actually makes a difference like no other. Doesn’t matter if it’s musically, socially, or charitablely, they have a tangible positive impact on the global community. 🌎✌️🙏. Rare these days

[@A52L]

love pj

[@brunobt8853]

Nice one Jeff (and all involved), so cool. 👏👏👏 As a kid I had a *British* skate board...😌 It was so dangerous... super fast but only as wide as your foot .. basically all wheels 😄 still had fun though.
