Editor's Note: First Notes is a weekly update of recent happenings in the world of music.

Eddie Vedder performed a cover of John Lennon's "Imagine" for the first time ever. It's just one more note in the ongoing anti-war rhetoric from the Pearl Jam frontman recently. Last week, he posted an anti-war blog on the band's website.

The Pitchfork Music Festival was held in Chicago over the weekend, with Neutral Milk Hotel, Grimes, Sharon Van Etten and St. Vincent among those leaving lasting impressions.
