Roundup of the Chris Cornell tribute show-I Am The Highway
Last night in Los Angeles, at the legendary Forum. Many of Chris Cornells friends and peers got together for 5 hours, to celebrate the music of Chris Cornell.
The amount of FOMO I had watching, and reading about the Chris Cornell tribute show brought back a lot of happy memories, of having the chance many times, to see Chris live. Be it Soundgarden, Solo or Audioslave. I even had the chance to meet him and chat with him. It was a career highlight, and he was so kind to me. He made it a memorable interview. Why? Because he was so down to earth, and we immediately connected on the Pacific Northwest. Him telling me about sleeping in Stanley Park when Soundgarden were just getting going, playing gigs in Clubs here in town. Or how his Dad brought him up to fish in hidden lakes in BC and Alberta. We all miss Chris, and he really was a great guy, who loved his family. So glad to see him being honoured and celebrated this week in Los Angeles at the Forum.
It was a who’s who. Members of Soundgarden, Temple Of The Dog, Metallica, Foo Fighters, Alice In Chains, Ryan Adams, and the list is LONG. Check out some of the clips. Yes, we all wish we were there.
