cornell taking a shot at ed?

teskeinc

They should probably call Timbaland and let him remaster Temple of the Dog with Chester filling in then I guess.

not4u

i think becuase nowadays Chester really is a guy who was highly influecend by grunge (i've known it all along honestly). Besides bitch, chris sang Eds part... read between the lines....lol

how is this a shot at Ed?

Who the fuck cares? Its his career, let him do what the fuck he wants with it. You guys get so bent out of shape over the dumbest shit.

As for the original post, I wouldn't read into that too much. As has already been said, I think Ed and Chris are pretty close.

Chris had nothing but good things to say about Ed even as Howard was trying to get Chris to say something negative.

i highly doubt it was a shot at Eddie.

he probably said there's no one he'd rather do it with because Chester takes the parts Cornell can't hit anymore after blowing out his voice

thanks for the clarification, i was just bringing it up cause i went to the show yesterday. . .i like chris cornell, wasnt trying to bash anyone, some people here got carried away with this. wasn't that big a deal

Chester likes Pearl Jam, that makes him ok in my book.

I guess the Project Revolution tour was in Philly this past weekend and Cornell was premiering some of his new songs for the first time on the radio....and it made me feel sorry for him. I think most of the songs were produced by Timberland and they sound like bad versions of that One Republic song "apologize".

Its kind of a weird comment but who really cares if they like each other or not. All I care is that Pearl Jam keeps on touring!!!

Yes... I heard the same show, he actually, or also said that Eddie was one of the most genuine and real person that he knows. Then Howard was like really? He was a little surprised, he said something to that fact and then CC just reaffirmed his previous statement.

That shit with LP is just a show biz thing. You guys look to much into this shit.

hopethatuchoke

the amount of retards around here is astonishing. i really don't care for that word but it's really the only word for it.

Ummm, no.

Chester is singing Chris's part.

Chris is singing Ed's.

Pay closer attention.

Chris isn't taking a shot at Ed. About a year or so ago, Chris was on Howard Stern (no I don't watch or listen to him) and Stern asked if Eddie Vedder was an ass. Chris said he's one of my best friends, I swear to god he's the most genuine person I know.





Chris is just after a little cash, he knows it's almost over for him and he is gonna bank before it is. No other reason to explain his fall. I had Chris pretty high on my list of artist at one time too.

emily18

as much as i am very angry at chris right now, i really don't think that was a shot at ed at all...

Well Chris Cornell has lost his fuckin mind obviously. Have you heard his new shit with Timbland? I would rather listen to a recording of Bono taking a shit than to ever hear this Chris Cornell/Timbaland song again.

To be fair though, there's an interesting idea there: maybe Chris meant there's no one he'd rather have sing his own parts on that song than Chester?

Exactly! I mean he's pandering to the crowd. What's he gonna say "This song would have been so much better if Ed were here instead of Chester!"
But then I kinda see where the hate is coming from. He shouldn't have even said anything. But who cares cut him some slack. I mean his new songs are bad and hes getting enough hate for that. Anyway that's my 2 cents. And for the record even though I hate Cornell's new stuff I'm still a fan and I hate LP.

Yeah...I'm sure he was trying to get some of the Linkin Park fans on his side

Rock out Chris!

wow! finally some well deserved praise for the man I call "the voice"..

I went to two CC shows last year and they were the best of soundgarden, audioslave, TOTD and solo rolled into one...

nothing "poppy" about the sets... kick ass band...
anyone who can duplicate the guitar solo on Black Hole Sun earns my respect..

Plus Cornell got his voice back into great shape.. dragged out "Say Hello to Heaven" from TOTD and nailed the vocal live... and then opened up a major can of woop ass with "Slaves and Buldozers" as the closer...

"slaves and friggin bulldozers" people!

if you haven't heard the song, look it up in itunes...

deathmetalgrungeheadbanging rock tune!

Folks, the man performed "jesus christ pose" at an outdoor Easter day concert that was covered by all the popular media...

If that isn't an FU to the mainstream, than nothing is..!

go back to bashing green day for "selling out" you donkeys

I love Chris. I think the moral of the story is: Linkin Park sucks.
