Looks like Booker and the MG's were touring with Neil at the time.

Not sure why EC's there.

damn...the date is correct according to wiki, but NO show/setlist information. 1993...the DARK ages. maybe at a Pearl Jam site.

Elvis answered readers' questions for the Manchester Guardian newspaper last week. One question (and answer) was thus:

Q: Have you ever met or wanted to work with Neil Young? quilt

A: The first time I played the Bridge School benefit [Young and his late wife Pegi’s event for speech-impaired children], in 1990, I heard this disembodied voice singing harmony during Alison, and Neil walked out with a hand mic. It was great. He played Slane Castle in Ireland when I lived there and my agent, who is also Neil’s, said I should surprise him and sing on Rockin’ in the Free World. I slunk on stage, Booker T from the MGs was singing backing and he pointed to a piano and said: “Take it, Elvis,” like in a dream."

Which explains this photo of Booker T. Jones, EC and Eddie Vedder at Slane Castle in July 1993.

There is a setlist here: Setlist.fm which suggests that "Rockin' In The Free World" was the second encore.
