In Philly. He has a show tonight and was wondering around the City this afternoon. Very cool. I had to hold back from expressing myself about his new songs...

    I'd have done it in a subtle way.

    "Oh, Chris Cornell! Wow! I loved Soundgarden. And I loved Euphoria Morning. And I loved Audioslave. And I loved Carry On. (Pause) And I... um.. heard your new stuff too!"

    a friend of mine (also a tenclubber) met him after one of his solo shows last summer, and just pointed at him and said "You can't have Matt Cameron back"....chris just laughed.

    Ahh nevermind. :)

    That's still really cool man. Was he nice and everything?

    If I met him I'd ask him for a TOTD reunion. I know he's interested in it, so I'd remind him. ;)

    Seriously, you should have smacked him across the face, and said..."wake the fuck up, bro...you were in Soundgarden, Temple of the dog, AND Audioslave...just stop the insanity. you're like an entire fucking CHAPTER in the book of grunge, and now you're a laughing stock..."

    damn... i was just saying in one of the many CC hate threads how if anyone runs into him they gotta let him know how everyone feels about the new stuff... obviously thats easier said than done cause theres other things youd rather do with such an opportunity... but damn... wasted chance... HE NEEDS TO KNOW!

    cool ya got to meet him though

    and that "you cant have him back!" story is priceless! :D id give him back in a second though if it meant getting the old chris back!

    I would have run up to him, kicked him in the nuts, and said "You know why you deserved that."

    And you know what, I think he *would* know. :)

    He needs to be confronted by an entire gang of PJ thugs. That would be intimidating. Oh wait, no it wouldn't...
