yeah stip what are those numbers for SG? DOTU ....7???

Something about Chris cornells stage demeanor is hilarious to me. That taking a dump squat stance at the microphone, all that stomping...I assume he doesn't do that nowadays but yeah.

That's the best part!

I usually just start this album from Applebite and let it run through.

Maybe I will revisit it. Dusty and Zero Chance are my faves on DOTU.

DoTU's tail end has the stylistic rivers and valleys usually reserved for concept albums by more typically eccentric artists. Its a very engaging journey. To give it 7/10 would be missing the point entirely in my opinion.

Soundgarden/cc has written a lot of great songs but superunknown and euphoria morning are the only two albums I really like from start to finish

Was a great show. Dude has some incredible pipes. Bolded stuff below were the highlights for me. He flubbed the beginning of A Day in the Life but restarted and nailed it. Seasons was amazing as was all ToTD stuff. Imagine to close it all out was perfect as well. I even enjoyed the audioslave and solo stuff even though I wasn't very familiar with it.

Awesome! I wish he'd put Footsteps in the rotation now. I'm hoping for Wooden Jesus and The Day I Tried to Live on Wednesday. This is the set I saw last time: http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/chris-cor ... 38b39.html

Btw, where is your avatar? It was one of the best here.

Great setlist. Nice to see he is still playing TOTD songs...Wooden Jesus...

You can listen to Cornell's new tune, Misery Chain (for the 12 Years A Slave soundtrack), here:

Nice little tune, great use of his lower register here which is really glowing these days.

#1 Zero = best Audioslave song. How was it live?

Great, great song....i cant imagine it acoustic though.

Nice song, nice to hear him singing in his lower register and pretty cool to hear Joy Williams here.

i wouldn't even know where to begin if i tried to review it. it was amazing. the wooden jesus > footsteps > all night thing run was probably 12 of the best minutes of my life. it would be followed closely by the sunshower > sweet euphoria > halfway there run. what's great about chris is that you can tell there is nothing else he'd rather be doing. touring isn't a burden, and playing 29 songs happens because it is what he wants to do. people yelled shit constantly, and he acknowledged everything and had a good time with it. my favorite response was, "are you the same guy who yells birth ritual at every show?" if i had one complaint, it's that there is a little too much audioslave, but that said, getaway car was an absolute highlight. if chris is touring in your area and you're even a casual fan, it is worth every penny. he may do a fell on black days > seasons > the day i tried to live run when you see him, and if you're like me, you'll be blown away that such majesty was your third favorite 3 song run of the night.

That's a pretty nice looking setlist. Would have loved to see footsteps and all night thing.

That´s an amazing setlist...how was his voice?

I'm sure Halfway There sounds much better live/acoustic. Can't stand the album version but the demo is nice.

The demo version is great because its a darker song. It fits SG perfectly. The album version is horrible.

I wouldn't call the album version horrible. It's not all that different from the demo. It's just the tempo and the high register vocal up front makes it a little too "sunny" for a SG album. By itself I like it just fine.
