    so what you are really saying is Cornells career is so far in the shitter with this new record that he needs huge promotion to sell out 1500 capacity rooms now at 32$ a ticket? even with Timbaland on the bill?

    What the hell... I'm no street teamer, whatever that is... just because I have a good post and it happens to be defending Cornell I'm the scum of the earth? What the hell is this? I thought this was a pretty cool board too... and btw I'm a huge PJ fan I have all their albums and tons of bootlegs... I just don't post a lot.

    Don't worry, teskeinc seems to be complete parano about the cornell street team, i guess he often wakes up in sweat in the middle of the night screaming it's the Cornell street teeam who kidnapped my teddy bear 'cause i hate Scream

    In fact his teddy bear loves Scream, that's why he leaves, he was bored with the same old complaints

    Uh... haven't really released a big single yet along with a video or anything yet so I don't see how sales could be good.

    I'm a die hard Chris fan and a year ago I would have gone out of my way to see him, but not while he's promoting this dreck.

    I have always been the biggest Cornell fan and think some of his concerts are the among the best I've ever seen. But I don't think I would go to one of these shows, even if I won a ticket for free. It would be too hard to see Chris reduced to this. After that Fashion Rocks performance - he lost my respect and I wouldn't want see any more of that. I'd rather keep him in my memory as the powerful performer he was and hopefully will be again in the future.

    I would only attend these concerts if they have back up dancers. And if Cornell and Timbaland wear matching outfits.

    Yeah, I think Peter Cornell should be left out of this, lest someone egg his house or something.

    You do if it's a new project. You're average Soundgarden/Audioslave/Chris Cornell fan doesn't even know about this project with Timbaland yet.At least not in the UK
    Yes they do. Word of mouth and the fact that we just can't believe what's happening ensures that we tell every Cornell fan we can think of just what he's doing.

    I was able to pull up 10 tickets (the maximum allowable) for the Showbox gig. If I can do the same in 2 weeks, the halfway point between the ticket onsale date and the gig (give or take a couple of days), they'll likely be having some problems.

    I thought Timbaland would have more fans...

    I can only assume this was done out of curiousity... You weren't actually buying tickets were you?

    Definitely not the guy's finest moment. I was physically cringing when I saw this and couldn't change the channel fast enough.

    Seeing that fashion rocks performance makes me believe that aliens exist and have infiltrated the planet. How can this be the same guy as the badass Rock Demon that fronted Soundgarden? He actually looks feeble.

    Listen to the song "Ghosts" from Carry On. How truly autobiographical that has become.
