    saw soundgarden three times on their tour...twice in chicago and once in milwaukee...front row balcony for first night of chicago cuz i did the meet and greet thru luminary lane with my friend linda. it was cool meeting chris...we both kinda froze...starstruck sorta...he signed my vinyl...superunknown & songbook...took pics with us. he signed her arm and she got a tattoo the next day...i waited in the cold snowy weather the next day to get front row on the rail. chris cornell still sounds amazing live and puts on a great show. had a blast!!! highlights for me were blow up the outside world, mailman, and 4th of july...jesus christ pose was at a breakneck speed so that was pretty powerful to see. surprised to see em play tighter and tighter...heard they brought out mike mccready to play it with em in seattle i think i heard. was my first time seeing soundgarden...so meant alot to me. one of my favorite bands for sure. cant believe matt cameron keeps going like he does...soundgarden tour, now pearl jam tour. wow.

    I feel your pain. This year was my first show also.. it's hard to take a breath after that!... IDK how Matt does these crazy things.. and now Soundgarden is over but it was so great and Pearl Jam is starting again. Does he have some type of Star Trek transporter? Beam me up, Scotty. Give some Hendrix Gin to the lads. If I could ... I would go back and buy a ticket to the entire tour. It was just simply AWESOME! That is hard for me to say cause of where I mostly post... Soundgarden is BACK! WOW. When Ben threw his bass, I thought it was over. No one got a good video that night. I tried, myself. Playing this gave me chills. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvVpLtJoZ_I They brought out McCready? I'm looking into that..

    Sweet! Found it. Not the best video but again, WOW.

    enjoy! Fellow newbie Soundgarden fan. :lol:

    for me i really got into soundgarden when superunknown came out...then i loved down on the upside...and boom, they broke up...so i had to wait all that time to see em live...so ive been waiting since 96 to see em...i did see audioslave, so got to see chris cornell and he was at pj20, but i missed out on the show at lollapalooza in chicago few years ago in 2010...my parents were going through a divorce and i slacked on getting tickets...but those shows at the riviera more than made up for it. the acoustics were absolutely perfect and meeting chris cornell right before seeing him take the stage made for a once in a lifetime experience...one of the best of my life. then i go back the next to shows and make it to the front row on the rail to show em, prove em...hey ill stand for hours in the snow to be in the front...im a real fan for sure. got every album on vinyl and a couple old tour shirts from the louder than love and badmotorfinger tour. in a lotta ways im a bigger fan of them than even pearl jam...although noone is more of a hero to me than mike mccready cuz i have colitis and so does he. got both those bobbleheads from the ccfa. those combine my love for music and baseball so those mean alot. so ya, if i met pearl jam, id probably talk to mike more than eddie.

    Matt Cameron is a machine. Has he ever had a day off work?

    I went to Brixton 1.

    Was alright. Much better than Hyde Park last year!

    They don't have the presence or atmosphere of PJ...but they do have the drummer!

    I was at Brixton 1 as well, and "alright" pretty much summed it up. The Shepherds Bush gig last year was faaaaaar better, that was incredible and close to a PJ show experience for me. Brixton was all a bit flat, the sound massively sucked where I was, as did the crowd.
