Soundgarden

In the 1990s, Soundgarden was the rock band of the day. Being based in Seattle gave them a certain American perspective which is hard to replicate. About 16,000 fans were there to celebrate with the band. The glory days were revived and it was a good party for virtually everyone.  Four singers managed to present twenty one songs in two hours. That is much better than Any Winehouse can produce in six months during her better periods. Soundgarden focused on dark material in the Molson Amphitheatre and reminded everyone why there were such forces on MTV. Their last scene on stage was in 1997 and at that time there was quite a lot of tension. More than a decade later, they are back at it and the results are far more impressive. The lead singer and guitarist Chris Cornell was able to take some pictures of the audience. His young son was playing air drums and following the music.
