The Who played their second Teenage Cancer Trust show at London’s Royal Albert Hall on Wednesday, March 20, and fans lucky enough to be in the audience were treated to a surprise appearance by Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder.

Fan-shot footage posted to social media shows Vedder, a well known Who fan, joining Roger Daltrey and Pete Townshend for a performance of “The Punk and the Godfather,” a track from the band’s rock opera Quadrophenia.

Vedder is in London for another Teenage Cancer Trust show. He’s one of the many guests set to perform with Daltrey at Ovation, a Celebration of 24 Years of Gigs for TCT on March 24.

The show is a celebration of Daltrey’s 24 years as curator of the Teenage Cancer Trust charity concerts; he is stepping down after this year. Other guests booked for the show include Robert Plant with Saving Grace, Stereophonics’ Kelly Jones and Paul Weller.
