Given to Fly at del Lago Resort & Casino | July 10, 2026
The serious Pearl Jam tribute is a particular kind of undertaking — the catalog is dense, the vocal demands are specific, and the audience has spent decades memorizing the records. Given to Fly, who bring their Pearl Jam Experience to The Vine Showroom at del Lago Resort & Casino on Friday, July 10, 2026, have been making that case since 2014, with credentials that hold up to scrutiny.
About Given to Fly
Given to Fly were originally a Capital Region act — voted the #1 tribute band in New York’s Capital Region before relocating to South Florida — and have been performing consistently since 2014. Their reputation rests on two pillars: Bob Donahue’s vocal resemblance to Eddie Vedder, described in the band’s own materials as strikingly similar, with rich tone, occasional growl, and the storytelling cadence the part requires; and a dual guitar attack built to channel Stone Gossard and Mike McCready. Saratoga Living Magazine put it about as well as anyone has: “Given To Fly doesn’t dress the part, other than 1990s attire: flannels and jeans. But listen to Donahue’s pitch-perfect vocals and the band’s dual guitar attack — carbon copies of Stone Gossard and Mike McCready, respectively — and you’d swear you were in a Seattle club in the early ’90s.” Pearl Jam itself has reposted Given to Fly’s material on social media, which in tribute-band economics is roughly the equivalent of a knighthood. The Waterloo date is part of the Five Horizons Tour 2026, an eight-state run that takes the band through Florida, Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and New York.
