Eddie Vedder gave the first performance of his songs from Sean Penn's "Into the Wild" at a post-screening party Friday on the Paramount lot. Introduced by Penn and the film's star, Emile Hirsch, Vedder played the film's gem of a track, "Guaranteed," and followed with soundtrack tunes "No Ceiling," "Society"  and, on mandolin instead of acoustic guitar, "Rise."
He also offered up "Drifting," a song initially released only to Pearl Jam fan club members, that he said was a "Christopher McCandless kind of song," referring to the film's nomadic lead character.
He closed with a tune he cut for another Penn film, "I am Sam": The Beatles' "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away."
