Soundgarden -- Wantagh, NY -- July 9th, 2011
 

I got to the venue and bought some shitty overpriced food. On a small stage by the merch booths they had a Pearl Jam Cover Band. They weren't that bad. Me and My friend went to our seats and after a while Coheed and Cambria came on. I was never a fan of these guys. The only song I recognized was [I]Welcome Home [/I]which I remember they played last. At about 8:45 Soundgarden took the stage.

Soundgarden played for about 2 hours and they sounded great the whole way through. People have been praising Chris Cornell on this tour for still having the great voice and I am proud to be able to confirm this. Chris seemed to be really into it the whole show and even jumped in the crowd during [I]Hunted Down[/I]. All in all it was a great show.

I've heard for years that Cornell's voice was kind of shot and he probably would struggle doing Soundgarden, so I'm glad to hear the good reports. I hope they come around. I'd go.

I found Ugly Truth from a different show and got sort of excited but there is a lot of echo effects on his voice now that he didn't use previously.

Loud Love :drool: I saw that they did Room a Thousand Years Wide at a show as well. So nice they are changing things up a little every night. So jealous to all who are seeing this...

Glad to see they're switching up the set list a little bit. As far as Cornell's voice is concerned, it was almost perfect at the Toronto show and I would assume he's keeping it up.
