On Sunday (October 6) Adam Sandler hosted a charity event in Malibu, California called Rock4EB with the goal of raising money to help fight a rare disease called epidermolysis bullosa. The comedian was joined by celebrities ranging from Rami Malek to Julia Roberts and treated guests to some pretty special musical performances. At the end of the night, he brought out Judd Apatow and Eddie Vedder to play a rendition of Pete Townshend's "Let My Love Open The Door," which Vedder's band Pearl Jam famously covered in 1995.
Hollywood Reporter writer Chris Gardner was able to catch the performance on camera. Watch the footage below.
Another big moment from #Rock4EB: @AdamSandler @JuddApatow and Eddie Vedder performing “Let My Love Open the Door,” a classic Pete Townshend song covered by Vedder and Pearl Jam back in 1995.

That wasn't the only special performance Sandler had in store for those in attendance. He also brought out his daughters Sunny and Sadie to sing Taylor Swift's "Lover" after revealing they had flown into California that morning after seeing the pop star's stunning Saturday Night Live performance the night before in New York City. The proud papa accompanied his girls on guitar and couldn't help but throw in some humor.
“Your knees are shaking, right?" he asked his daughters as he settled in with his guitar. "How do you think I feel? Every god***n night I do this s**t.”
Watch that heartfelt performance below.
There are many, many highlights I recorded from tonight’s #Rock4EB but this one is pretty special. @AdamSandler handling guitar duties while his daughters Sunny & Sadie sing @taylorswift13 “Lover” in front of Julia Roberts, Sean Penn, etc. They’re major Swifties, and so good too pic.twitter.com/Z589j4tDBJ

Also, come on this is pretty great, too. @AdamSandler welcomes his daughters to the stage, admits they’re excited and nervous to cover @taylorswift13 esp after hearing their dad’s prior performances with some dirty words. “Did you hear daddy curse? I’m sorry, I’m sorry!” #Rock4EB pic.twitter.com/MtKBKMF4Z3
