    I was just wondering, has anyone in Pearl Jam EVER postponed 2 shows on a tour to play a designer jeans party?

    Chris Cornell is an ASSHOLE, I'm glad Pearl Jam is my favorite band!

    get over it man. yeah, it sucks, but its a business and shit happens. ticket sales have been shitty in milwaukee and chicago, so I'm happy they havent canceled these shows because of it. Milw was offering free admission with 2 drink-minimum and TM is selling half price tickets for tonight, so it must be bad.

    90% of the Rave/Eagles shows have 2 drink minimum tickets... If he would have cancelled due to low ticket sales, that would be at least a valid reason... A fucking DESIGNER JEANS show? How much of a diva does he need to be? Last solo tour Chris came to Milwaukee, I had front row seats, then he changed the venue because of low ticket sales, all GA... I understood, didn't care, but this is not a valid reason!

    I'm not saying its a valid reason, and I agree that it sucks. Isnt he part owner in some fashion company? I want to say that I read that a while back. even so, its not cool to cancel a show for paying fans for a BS reason like this.

    my point was more to get over it. everyone understands that it sucks, but posting that he is an asshole in every Cornell-related thread is annoying.

    moving on...

    Great show. High energy. Place was cool, but kind of a dump. It was raining outside, and the roof was leaking in several places. it actually was raining on stage. I thought they would have to stop the show, but luckily it stopped.

    Wish he would have played Seasons.

    What songs too.... Outshined, Say Hello to Heaven, Be Yourself, Rusty Cage, Cochise, Like a Stone (acoustic), What You Are. Sunshower, Billy Jean, Jesus Christ Pose, Like a Stone.... can't remember what order or what songs I'm missing.

    I have some pretty cool videos of the full songs Say Hello to Heaven and Sunshower but they're huge (135MB each). If someone could give me some advice on converting them to a smaller file size, I'd be happy to post those too :D

    Gotta a stupid question....

    Is the music still heavy? I know not the acoustic stuff but the other songs.

    Going to see him on Tuesday here in Boston.

    Chris Cornell can go FUCK HIMSELF!
  • redrockredrock Posts: 18,341
    He seems to be getting better with every show! Can't wait until he gets back to London in September...
  • pjtaperpjtaper Posts: 3,020
    I just wanted to let you non-chris cornell fans like myself know, the reason there are so many cornell related threads on this PEARL JAM board is because there is a street team of Chris Cornell fans that are encouraged to post threads about him everywhere, make posters for the show, etc.
    Well, since I have voiced my anger with Chris bailing on the Denver shows for the designer jeans company, I am now kicked off the street team...
    SCREW CHRIS CORNELL AND ALL HIS PEOPLE! DO NOT SUPPORT HIM PLEASE!!! If you see any Chris Cornell threads ANYWHERE other than other music, get them removed/deleted, lets not supoort a guy who is out there to only make money and doesn't care who he fucks over in the process!
