Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder literally stopped the show Monday night at Wrigley Field to deal with a male fan who was ticking him off.

The rocker, 51, was performing the song Lukin when, according to EW.com, he suddenly got his bandmates to stop.

Pointing at a man in the audience, he shouted out: 'Hey! Hey, mister, get your finger out of the woman’s face, mother******!'

Hey you! Eddie Vedder halted Pearl Jam's performance part way through the song Lukin to confront a fan who was being physically inappropriate with a woman in the audience

'All the fingers are pointing at you. Clear out, mister,' he went on.

Fans in the pit could be seen raising their hands to applaud the veteran musician's move as security guards found the guy and escorted him out of the arena that's home to the Chicago Cubs.

It's not clear what exactly the fan was doing but it caught Vedder's attention enough to bring everything to a halt.

Ejected: The rocker, 51, pointed the man out and had security escort him out of the arena at Wrigley Field in Chicago on Monday night

Good call: The crowd signaled their approval by raising their hands in the air as Vedder checked that the woman involved was okay

The incident was caught on video by some of those at the concert.

Vedder went on to check if the woman who'd he thought was being manhandled was okay.

He then gave a shout-out to a male friend who was with her, saying: 'That’s a good man, taking care of your woman, and then she was taking care of herself too pretty good it looked like she was ready…'

Veteran rocker: Vedder is currently on a stadium tour with Pearl Jam

Approved: Actress Sophia Bush was among those who took to social media to praise the Pearl Jam rocker

The Chicago P.D. star wrote a long post on Instagram thanking Vedder him for showing 'that 41,000 people can, and should, stop what they are doing to watch out for one lady in a crowd'

Fans including actress and Chicago P.D. star Sophia Bush took to social media to praise the rocker's actions.

'This is what a feminist looks like,' wrote the actress alongside a picture of Vedder jumping high above the stage in his trademark move.

'Tonight a rock n' roll hero was a moral hero too. Tonight a man who commands crowds around the world reminded a crowd that violence against women is unacceptable and intolerable,' she added.

Other Twitter users also thanked Vedder for what he did using the hashtags #respect, #empowerwomen and #mindyourmanners.
