    He's not going. He thinks Chris Cornell is a "greasy monkey". But he hopes we all have a lovely time!

    I'm going to see him in Paris tonight, couldn't make it to the London gig and since I know people in Paris I've got a place to crash out after the gig.
    I'll be sure to report back!

    So how was it Yielded? Details please? :)

    nah..Claudio ended up with the tickets from RiffJam so the one I had for him is now available.
    And Vedder_Soup has now taken it :)

    Don't worry Emma, even if Vicki doesn't come, I'm sure there'll be plenty of desperate souls out front happy to pay a normal price rahter than a tout.

    Okay, sorry for not replying earlier, I just got back from Paris. Great city, hadn't been there in years!

    The venue ("Showcase") was really nice, it's an old boat hangar they remodeled into a nightclub/concert kind of thing.

    On to the actual show: No opener. Chris took the stage 20 minutes late, but I don't think anyone really cared after the first song, which was Spoonman. They went right into Outshined and after that they played the Audioslave song Original Fire. They also played You Know My Name (the track from the last Bond movie).
    I can't remember all the tunes and the order but they also played Say Hello 2 Heaven, Rusty Cage, Black Hole Sun, Cochise... Chris also did a couple of acoustic breaks (just him and his acoustic: "Hey, I just got this new guitar, whaddaya think?" *crowd cheers* "It says Elvis Presley on it!" *points to headstock*) He played Call Me a Dog ("My wife really likes when I play this song to her"), Redemption Song, I Am The Highway, Can't Change Me (from Euphoria Morning).
    BUT! The highlight of the show was - Jesus Christ Pose! And I can tell you, Chris still has it!

    As you can tell, the show was totally awesome so if you can catch him on tour this year - GO!

    Best quote: "It's great to be back... AND I get to sleep in my own bed *yeah*!"
