Pearl Jam performing live at Ruoff Music Center

After nearly a year of waiting due to a rescheduled event, Pearl Jam finally returned to Indiana for the first time since 2010. The sold-out show at Ruoff Music Center proved worth the anticipation, even it it fell on a scorching hot workday.

 

Known for their high-energy performances, the band didn’t disappoint. The sound and visuals were impeccable, and the connection with the crowd was palpable. Eddie Vedder’s vocals were as strong as ever, and the chemistry between the band members was flawless, especially during standout moments like Mike McCready’s guitar solo on "Even Flow."

 

From personal fan song requests to truly heartfelt moments (like dedicating “Song of Good Hope” to a cancer-stricken fan), the night was filled with emotion. Pearl Jam delivered an unforgettable experience, mixing old favorites with newer hits, leaving the audience in awe.

From the moment you descend into Hallownest, you’re met with mystery, melancholy, and a sense of quiet grandeur. The world feels alive, yet long dead—every corner hinting at a once-glorious civilization now decayed and forgotten in Hollow Knight

The built-in editor is one of the best parts of geometry dash. I’ve spent hours designing my own levels and learning how to sync movements with music. It adds so much replay value and encourages creativity in a fun, accessible way.
