Fans came to Gibson Amphitheater for a Pearl Jam concert. They stayed for a grunge reunion with Chris Cornell and Jerry Cantrell.
The Tuesday night show was No. 3 of a four-show set in LA for Pearl Jam. Unlike other shows, this one had impromptu appearances from the front men of Soundgarden and Alice in Chains, EW.com reported:
Then Chris Cornell and Jerry Cantrell showed up. Here is a YouTube video in which the former Soundgarden frontman joins Eddie Vedder for "Hunger Strike," thus reforming the complete lineup of Andrew Wood/Mother Love Bone tribute band Temple of the Dog:
Skeptics will note that not only did Cornell hit the high notes, he probably could have hit them even harder. That was pretty dang awesome. Unfortunately, no one has yet produced video of Alice in Chains' Jerry Cantrell hopping on stage to close out the night with the guitar solo on "Alive," and perhaps that’s just as well: Suddenly unoccupied, PJ guitarist Mike McCready gallivant about the stage like the grunge fairy, flinging handfuls of picks to the admittedly floored crowd throughout the singalong number, and eventually ending up shirtless. Cantrell, for the record, effing killed the lick.
So let this be a lesson to all the Pearl Jam fans out there: Always buy tickets for all four shows.
Pra quem tem saudades dos tempos aureos do final de 80 e inicio de 90, é uma ótima lembrança, quem não deveria estar se sentindo bem nesse meio é o Cornell (um ex-peixe fora d'água rs...), brincadeiras a parte, espero que ele caia em si e volte a fazer música de qualidade. Bom, mas que grandes recordações, fica o pesar de saber o quanto perdemos nesses anos todos.
Abaixo alguns vídeos desse momento histórico do dia 06/10/2009.
