The Riot Act-era concert I went to - which I have on CD thanks to Pearl Jam - did this with "Baba O'Riley". Vedder was at "Don't cry, don't-" and stopped mid-sentence. The crowd continued
very clearly and loudly, "- raise your eyes, it's only teenage wasteland", at which point Vedder jumped back in with a battle cry of sorts. Highlight of the night, easily.
