    Just got back from the nashville show....

    I suck at reviews.... but holy shit..... killer show.... 2 1/2 hrs!!!

    Christ that was an AMAZING SHOW!!!!!!!! I'm still riding the post show giddy high, so I'm can't really express how awesome he was. Listening to the Seattle show it sounded like his voice wasn't so strong, but last night he rocked my brains out!!!! Great setlist, GREAT crowd, cheap beer ... there almost isn't words. :D:D:D

    And 130+ degrees in there!!!... over sold by 500... 6 people taken away in ambulances (and the crowd WAS NOT rowdy at all).... and the fire marshall almost shut it down during encore, but didn't, in fear of riot

    .... and ACC... just happened to be out here for work - go figure

    Still bad ass show....Chris voice was spot on and was in great mood.... played pretty much all of soundgardens greatest hits, a few audioslaves tracks, TOTD, some of his old solo stuff, 3-4 from new album (including Billie Jean and that James Band Casino Royale track)...

    I listened to "My Wave" really, really loud last night in hopes that is becomes a regular staple in his shows.

    OMG, I've never been so hot and sweaty in my entire life. I was literally dripping sweat and beer by the end of the show. I figured they must have oversold the show cause there were a ton of people. Very happy that I got in line early and got a great spot (about 3 rows of people back, left side of the stage with a direct sight line to Chris). The crowd around me was awesome ... totally into the music but not pushy or too rowdy. It's too bad that some people got hurt though.

    The fire marshall would have had a riot on his hands if he/she would have closed it down.

    Overall, a great show!

    It was real easy to get close last night, crowd energetic enough even with the heat. People were spaced out well, and it kept getting hotter so people were moving to the back.

    ... and PBM.... out here for work this week! Worked out great. I think I'm going to try for Warfield tix in SF tommorrow....

    Only issue I have with the shows are the setlist. Every show he opens with the same 2 songs, and most of the set is the exact same except a different song or 2. I wish he and the band would expand and change.
    Yeah, I know, Pearl Jam fucking spoiled me, I know! However, it's not A LOT to ask to just mix it up some.

    He is coming to Finland too. August 29th. Can´t wait.
  • whoohoo!!

    I got Row C on the floor today!!

    I am soo stoked! I am digging the sets he's playing. If he takes Sunshower out I'll be very disappointed.

    I'm pumped tho....who else is going???

    I'm going to try and go to the Philly, New York, New Jersey, and Reading shows. Though the Goo Goo Dolls are scheduled for the Borgata the same night Cornell is playing the music box. Unfortunately is 21+ so I can't go. Rats! Still, so many shows. If only Pearl Jam would follow suit.

    A Chris interview and a few tracks he recorded were broadcast in the UK on radio on Thursday and can be listened back here

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/colinmurray/

    (hope you can listen overseas) Chris starts about 38ish minutes in ... dj is a huge PJ fan so about 10 mins in before Chris arrives he mentions his PJ and Cornell fandom and how he will try not to hero worship


    Tracklisting can be seen here if you want to decide whether to listen to the whole show :D

    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?
