"Surprising Performers for Chris Cornell Tribute Concert Announced, Will Chris Cornell Be There?"
Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
In all seriousness, Chris Cornell is dearly missed. I'd be down to see Eric play with Matt Cameron and Kim Thayil. I also saw on Instagram Perk was hanging around with Chaney and Hawkins so maybe he's playing too

Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
Miley Cyrus, Josh Homme, Adam Levine, Fiona Apple, Miguel, Brandi Carlile, and Chris Stapleton are confirmed now too. Some of these guests are really cool, some are really... I don't quite get it
Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
Just wait until you hear Miley Cyrus version of "Say Hello to Heaven "...
Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
I just saw that Mike Patton cancelled. I was interested in hearing what he was going to do.
Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
Ugh... he was doing 4 or 5 Soundgarden songs with the original members backing him... to my mind the most promising part of the show. Now, I wonder how they'll scramble to split up his songs...

From Blabbermouth.com:
“Gibson announced today (Tuesday, January 15) the release of a limited-edition Chris Cornell Tribute ES-335 guitar. The guitar will officially be unveiled at "I Am The Highway: A Tribute To Chris Cornell", the star-studded concert event honoring Chris Cornell's legacy and contribution to music history on Wednesday, January 16 at The Forum in Los Angeles.
"Chris Cornell was not only one of the most iconic singer songwriters of all time, he was a modern innovator who left a legacy that transcends music genres and generations," says Cesar Gueikian, chief merchant officer, Gibson. "It is our honor to release this tribute ES-335 in his memory. It's a guitar Chris fell in love with and which became a part of his creative expression. Chris was a special artist and we hope that this guitar will inspire fans to find their sound, and inspiration, just like Chris did, for many years to come."
This show is quickly taking on an aura of grotesque exploitation.

Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
Avery on a TotD song?! Now that really would be bizarre, and for a host of reasons. I find it hard to believe that if Matt Cameron and Stone Gossard are there, that Ament wouldn't be. All of this aside from the fact that I see even less of a connection between EA and TofD and its members.
Sadly, the commercial takeover isn't much of a surprise. LiveNation will be selling locks of his hair dipped in gold with the proceeds going to the grieving widow.
As for Patton, flu or cold, apparently.

Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
That would have been absolutely killer. In fact it would be really intruiging if that contingient started writing music together.
Also, are all bands and artists playing strictly Cornell material?
Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
I believe the Melvins are opening playing their own material, but beyond that almost entirely Cornell material, including some songs he covered.
I think the Foo Fighters were doing one of their songs, but as a tribute?
I just scanned someone else's copy of the setlist, I have to go off memory...
And, this was yesterday, so "subject to change" of course...

Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
I'd rather hear a congested Mike Patton than a healthy Perry Farrell.
I am honestly looking forward to hearing what Miley Cyrus does. I think she's fully capable of knocking it out of the park.

Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
Agreed on both points. People are hating on her but I think it makes sense for her to apart of it.
Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
As expected, Cochise was extremely bad.
Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
But now Juliette Lewis is singing be yourself by audioslave and that is ten times worse
Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
It's a bit laboured....
Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
Perry and Morello better combo now than Perry and Dave.

Eric's appearance at 5:30ish (timestamps don't work well with this site). He's not formally introduced other than "we need a bass player", but you can kinda see him
Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
She was awesome on All Night Thing, and Miley Cyrus was really, really good too.
Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
man, that sounds pretty bad. Well, it's in standard 440 tuning, poor guy's not used to it. Sounds tuned down to me though
Re: Both Eric and Perry are Involved with the Chris Cornell Tribute Concert
Miley Cyrus sounds great!
