I hoped for it but I didn't actually think it would happen.

Guess Cornell finally came to his senses. Maybe his shitty Timbaland produced R&B album, which bombed horribly was the last straw or this is just a reunion tour cash grab. We shall see.

I don't care if it is a cash grab. One of my all time favorite bands.

They're in my top 3 and on my list of "bands I need to see live before I kick it" list. I can't believe I'll actually cross them off said list.

There's been rumblings about it, but I have no idea how this is going to happen unless Matt Cameron steps from behind PJ's drums. They have tourdates in Europe most of the summer, and they're playing some festivals in April. Wondering if this is a winter 2010 thing.

Not surprising. They should totally tour state fairs with Smashing Pumpkins though.

Part of me thinks this is cool because I would like a chance to see them live, but for the most part I feel that usually when a band retires that should be it. I feel that most bands that do this become a parody of themselves, almost like Soundgarden playing covers of Soundgarden.

They became a parody of themselves when they released Superunknown. I get physically ill listening to Black Hole Sun.

I wonder if they'll finally reschedule the show I was going to go to that was "postponed" due to laryngitis but then never happened because they broke up.

Kim Thayil and Ben Shepard benefit tour (former drummer Matt Shepard has been playing with Pearl Jam for years).

If they'd play material from Badmotorfinger and prior, I'd go see them.

I wasn't into them when I was 13. I just bought the CD because I thought I had to.

Oh and I'm still not....neo-cock rockers.

Superunknown was sort of the "holy shit we're rock stars now and we can do anything we want" album. Some of it was great. Some of it, like Black Hole Sun, was stuff they probably shouldn't have done. But Soundgarden was a GREAT band. Badmotorfinger is still one of my favorite records of the 90's.

What was "the CD"? Makes a big difference. Also, I need a neo-cock.

This is all I can play from them now. I can still get off on it.

Unless they just play Louder Than Love in its entirety, I have no interest. By the time they broke up, they were already a parody of their former selves.
