(Gibson) Heading into the last week of his highly touted solo tour, Chris Cornell reflected on the experience with Spinner.com. Even with a new Soundgarden album in the worksthe group's first studio set in 15 yearsCornell still found value in standing alone in front of an audience armed only with an acoustic guitar.
"It couldn't be further from what I would do in Soundgarden," Cornell said. "The bottom line is that's what's interesting to me about it and that's what's exciting about it. I can do this onstage with a band and amps and volume and aggression. I got that, no problem. But if I can't just walk in a room, pick up and instrument and entertain people, then how much of a musician am I really?" more on this story
