Like Jazzercise for Generation Z, Pearl Jam offered a chance for fans to exercise to their favorite music. At Outside Lands music festival in San Francisco, fans were cranking out the tunes using their hands on a modified exercise bike. The energy from the bike allowed them to hear Eddie Vedder, Stone Gossard, Jeff Ament, Mike McCready, and Matt Cameron on headphones.

The listening station was at the festival thanks to Global Inheritance, a Los Angeles nonprofit that aims to “reinvent activisism for today’s young generations” using the power of creativity. (Sounds like a thinking teens answer to the sit-in.)

Four new tracks from Pearl Jam — “Get Some,” “The Fixer,” “Just Breathe” and “Supersonic” — were available for the crankers’ listening pleasure.
