I'm just not feeling his stage presence..He's not Ed, I know...Basically just standing around, not jumping around or moving too quickly..The voice is incredible, don't get me wrong, but just watching him, well, boring!

    i reckon his songs since the formation of audioslave have been somewhat pedestrian and boring too! so the standing there and only shaking his head doesn't really benefit from the ordinary material he's singing.

    he has been doing little intimate shows...so, he wont be running around a large stage trying to get an arena-filled area pumped.

    I saw him recently (2x) and his voice is AMAZING and his stage presence is spot on.

    all in all you will have one hell of a time in Atlanta!

    He's much better when there's no crowd. I saw him solo this tour and he was interactive with the crowd, dancing along on the stage, basically just had a great stage presence. This though was filmed for millions of people to see around the world for free. First, don't ya think he's gonna be a little nervous; he wants to have an appropriate presence for the more mature audiences. Second, it was free. He's not going to save his great stuff for a free show.
    Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    I was watching it earlier today - what the fuck did his band do to Cochise - they were too lazy to play the intro! Thats the best fucking bit, the making of the song!

    well I just got back from seeing him tonight, and he rocked the place! he was all over the stage, lots of presence - in fact I wish he would have kept still a bit more, then i could have gotten some better pictures!

    For all the Cornell thread haters.

    This is a joke people saying Cornell lost it. He still has the strongest voice in rock music today.
