“This shot was just an accident as usually shooting at big events with even bigger stages means you get nothing but the obligatory shot of the back of some rock stars head and the crowd. Ho hum.

My good friend and ex-TheRocket art director Jesse Reyes who was working by then in New York as an art director for Penguin Books even used an alternative version of this shot on the cover of the Kim Neely book ‘FIVE AGAINST ONE: The Pearl Jam Story. Also if I remember correctly this photo was made into a poster which sold a couple hundred thousand. “ Kevin Westenberg Photography
