Perry Ferrell is the man.

Lollapalooza with Soundgarden was the best. Unfortunately, I was caught up in college at the time and didn't get to go.



Chris Cornell, 1992. My biggest singing influence. And he could hit higher notes than he could jump. Blows my mind. I listen to Badmotorfinger almost every day.

My 9 year old daughter always has me hopping to make sure her MP3 player is filled with new songs.

She was flipping through the stations on the radio of my mini-van (Yes, I'm not embarrased. I wouldn't have written that if I was!) and heard "Spoonman" for the first time. She's definitely a rocker and said "Dad, you've got to put that on my MP3 player!"

Guess what I'm doing right now?

I listen to Badmotorfinger almost every day.

That album has a place in my heart. Everyone talks about Superunknown and forgets about BMF.

I think BMF is every bit as good if not better.

Chris Cornell and David Draiman (Disturbed) are the best rock singers today, when vocal competency seems to be rare.

One thing I miss about about the 70's, you couldn't throw a rock without hitting a good singer, and usually they played another instrument. And harmonies! Everybody did harmonies. Not anymore.

I saw Soundgarden open for Guns and Roses at Joe Robbie Stadium in Miami, New Year's Eve 1991. They were all but booed off stage by the GNR fans.

GNR was HORRIBLE, btw.
