His band was alright but when covering Soundgarden material you just can't put hired guns on stage and expect them to nail that stuff. The Badmotorfinger songs really suffered, but we're talking about Ben Sheppard, Matt Cameron and Kim Thayil. Can't replace those guys.
That's a fair comment. A few of the guitar solos were a bit clunky and the drummer was average. I thought his 2 solos were pretty pedestrian. That being said, the quality of Cornell's voice, his overall performance and the range and amount of material covered in the show made for a fantastic concert. He is the best rock singer out there IMO. The crowd was engaged and the band were enjoying themselves. One of the best shows I've been to in quite a while.
