And so the concert closes on this young day, the longest of the year, with “Alive”. That key song of the band, which is actually roughly about the personal story of singer Eddie Vedder, who was told by his mother as a teenager that his father was not the man he thought he was, but someone else. And who in turn has already died. The boy, in turn, was alive now, but he felt guilty. “I’m still alive”, life as a burden.
