In Cameron Crowe’s 1992 film Singles, Matt Dillon portrays Cliff Poncier, the frontman of the fictional grunge band Citizen Dick. The band features members played by real-life Pearl Jam musicians: Eddie Vedder, Jeff Ament, and Stone Gossard. Interestingly, much of Dillon’s wardrobe in the film was sourced from Jeff’s own clothing collection. Jeff also contributed to the film’s authenticity by creating a list of song titles for Citizen Dick, one of which inspired Chris Cornell to write Spoonman.
