Pavement are currently in the midst of their North American reunion tour, and last night (October 5) in Philadelphia, the band was joined by Kurt Vile to perform the 1992 song “Zurich Is Stained.” Vile took Stephen Malkmus’ place on vocals, with Malkmus stepping back to perform the song on guitar. Video of the occasion was captured by Dylan Baldi of Cloud Nothings and later posted on Instagram. Check it out below.

“Grew up sangin it now I’m finally livin it ❤️,” Vile wrote. “Thanks to my heroes @pavementband for inviting me up there for this nostalgic moment frozen in time forever.”

Announced in November 2021, Pavement’s reunion tour has brought across the U.S., with multiple performances scheduled in Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, and Atlanta before crossing the Atlantic for tour dates in Europe later this fall. In August, the band partnered with a group of local businesses in Parma, Ohio to create the first-ever Pavement-themed pierogis.
