I'm looking to get my NYC tickets at 11 this morning (EST) but I was checking other big cities, and he's not selling out anywhere....in fact, you can get great seats for most of his shows even though they are on sale already.

    Dude, Cornell already sold out when he did that modelling shit...

    Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.

    also because not everyone thinks he's the second coming of Christ. Its just a few ppl on this forum that put him up on the pedestal and make him a rock god...

    Probably because his new album licks ass.
    "I try my best to chug, stomp, weep, whisper, moan, wheeze, scat, blurt, rage, whine, and seduce. With my voice I can sound like a girl, the boogieman, a Theremin, a cherry bomb, a clown, a doctor, a murderer. I can be tribal. Ironic. Or disturbed. My voice is really my instrument."

    Wow, out of no where everyone is bashing him. What the hell? You really think I am going to his show to see his new songs? I saw him at Irving Plaza just a few months ago, and he only played 3 new songs, everything else was Soundgarden, TOTD, and some solo songs. And he sounded fantastic!!

    So much for saying why he doesn't sell out. Tickets for both NYC shows are almost sold out

    Just a transaction that didn't go through so the tickets were thrown back into the pot.

    i'm hopefully going to get ticks to the boston show .. if not new jersey or nyc. i live in ct =/ but first of all i hate all this cornell bashing.. if you don't like him don't make any comment. i see lots of threads of bands i think suck...do i go on there trashing them? no! show some respect..and chris should be up on the pedestal as a "rock god". same goes for you haters of the new album. i think it's fucking fantastic. can't tell you how many times i listened through it already.
