Poor Soundgarden - Must read

I feel bad for soundgarden for the first 10 dates of their tour. Most people will be walking away from that show talking about Coheed and Cambria instead of Soundgarden. I got to give Soundgarden credit for bringing them along. Coheed is known to have the best live show around. I know, I've seen them 5 times and just watched them on their current tour. I'm pretty sure this is going to ebe an eye opener for those are not familiar with this band.

    indeed

    i was thinking we were gonna get mars volta in CT
    insted we get Coheed and Cambria...really?!?!

    I'da been happy with ANY of the other choices.... QOTSA, Mastadon, or even Meat Puppets...

    But Coheed and Cambria :sick:
    Might as well be My Bloody Valentine

    Any thoughts of spending $150 a ticket to see SG are out the window now.

    The Mars Volta would slay Coheed like Machete. I feel bad for Matt. He has to listen to Cornell TRY to sing Jesus Christ Pose.

    Unfortunately, I cannot be there but I really like the fact that they choose Queens of the Stone Age and Meat Puppets as their opening bands. 8-)

    cornell on his worst day sounds better that either of those singers. Coheed and mars volta have THE worst singers around. Really terrible high pitched uninteresting voices IMO. Queens of the stone age however, now there's a real fucking opening band.

    i would prefer any of the other openers over coheed for the boston show. especially mastodon.

    Trust me, a lot of people just bash Coheed and Cambria cause they have never seen or heard them. Once you see them live, then I know that a lot of the opinions around here will change. Trust me. And believe me when I say this, Coheed and Cambria will steal the show. I promise.

    Not to bash the OP, why does it seem every 6 months to a year there's a thread from someone about how AMAZING this band is. One dude started several threads.
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

    :lol::lol::lol: Soundgarden doesn't have an album as good as Deloused In The Comatorium. The Mars Volta do pretty well for having an awful singer :roll:

    Saying that C&C will outplay SG is like saying Nickelback would outplay PJ.

    If any of Soundgarden's openers blow them out of the water its going to be Queens

    That's an awesome live band right there
    "Well, I think this band is incapable of sucking."

    Amen to that - Queens is great. I just googled Coheed and Cambria. Song started off pretty cool until haircut opened his mouth. I can't believe anyone thinks this will blow Soundgarden away.
