Welcome to The Platinum Board. We are a Nebraska Husker news source and fan community.
My cousin and her husband drove up from the Cincy metro area to see the concert and told us about it the next morning at brunch. It certainly was memorable for them.
When Soundgarden announced they were getting back together their first show in 13 years was the closing set for Lollapalooza. Eddie Vedder is friends with them, and the bands share the same drummer Matt Cameron. Eddie flew out to be a surprise guest. Place would have gone nuts when he walked out on stage. Unfortunately the day before they were to play his boat house at his home in Seattle on the Lake was torched. They think it was arson. So he flew back and didn't perform.
Matt Cameron is a great drummer.
And Matt is totally chill. Nobody ever recognizes him so you can walk around with him and not be bothered. I did my research before the first time I was with them. Cracked Matt up when I told him that he sang my favorite song ever. He's a drummer so he was confused when I threw that out there and then told him the song. Little known fact, teenage Matt Cameron sang the song Puberty Love for the movie Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. Matt is one of the most professional musicians I've ever been around or worked with. He isn't a partier and takes his trade very seriously. The day before the Soundgarden Lollapalooza show he went to the venue to check out the stage set up and start preparing. He spent 3 hours down there. The rest of the band & their families went with us to a Cubs Baseball Game, including his wife and kids.
Great story! Thank you for sharing.
