We probably would have followed the story the way that we did. And it was a great challenge.ĪP: What would have happened if the Cubs collapsed, the season ended with failure?Ĭlinch: You know, I don't think the film would have been that much different. I've never had an opportunity to mix the two. We wanted to keep the spirit of that set-list.ĪP: Have you ever done anything like this before?Ĭlinch: I've done quite a few concert films, quite a few documentaries. It kind of started on a mellow tip and there was this build, build, build, and this ebb and flow, which is actually how a film should be. Unable to make up its mind whether it wants to be a Pearl Jam concert film or sports documentary, Let’s Play Two succeeds at neither. They were like, 'This looks good to us.' The way they set their set-list up, they eased into it. The band said, 'It's your film, you do the set-list.' I was like, 'OK.'

They are private and they enjoy their privacy.
They're not a band that's posting to Instagram from backstage or doing a Snapchat or something like that. They're not a band that allows everybody to capture that stuff.
By doing that and by always showing respect, they allow me to capture that stuff. With Chicago being a hometown to Eddie Vedder, Pearl Jam’s relationship with the city, the Cubs and Wrigley Field is unparalleled in the world of sports and music. And I think that's an important thing to remember. Let's Play Two is a documentary film that chronicles Pearl Jam's performances at Wrigley Field during the Chicago Cubs 2016 season.
They know I respect their guitar tech, their tour manager, their whole team. I don't think they would let just anybody up there to do it. Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town - Live Pearl Jam. Did that help you get intimate moments like a moment you captured them doing a sound check on a roof overlooking Wrigley?Ĭlinch: My relationship with them is long and there is a trust there. Let's Play Two (Live / Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) 1. AP: You have worked with the band before.
