    Fascinating: Soundgarden could've taken "You Are." Kim loved it. But Matt acknowledged Ed owned it when it became a PJ song.

    Cool interview.

    Would love to hear Soundgarden do You Are. I think Kim was right, they would kill it. Not that PJ doesn't, just be different. Along that same thought, it would be interesting for Matt to bring the same song to both bands and see what happens. Kind of a Times of Trouble/Footsteps thing.

    At least he recognizes that he plays things to fast. That's my biggest complaint about his style. Hecan turn a 4 minute song into a 3 minute song with hhow fast he plays.

    Love! I'm always in awe when he's drumming during Jesus Christ Pose. I think Chris is super hot and I'm practically drooling at every Soundgarden show, but for JCP, eyes only on Matt!

    I tend to spend the majority of my Pearl Jam and Soundgarden concerts watching Matt. Total fanboy. No problem admitting it whatsoever.

    At Soundgarden shows I'm 50/50 between Chris and Matt. It would be 100% Matt if Chris weren't so darn hot :blush:

    For Pearl Jam, it's hard to focus on just one person because they are all so fun to watch.
