Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder Slow Dance With Kurt Cobain

09/13/2011
. (RockAAA) Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder says he had forgotten he shared a slow dance with the late Nirvana legend Kurt Cobain backstage at the MTV Video Music Awards in 1992 until he saw the footage again this year.

The footage of the grunge legends dancing and hugging backstage while Eric Claption performed 'Tears in Heaven' was unearthed by director Cameron Crowe who has been working with the band on their new documentary 'Pearl Jam 20.'

And Crowe admits it was footage he was desperate to track down for the movie. Speaking at a news conference at the Toronto International Film Festival Crowe said: "That had been talked about � some people didn't quite remember it even happening, other people swore there was somebody there with a camera � � and it's so powerful."
