Chris Cornell - 20 October 2011, at the Palais

My reaction to the first Cornell show was a bit lukewarm, but I thought his singing and the overall performance at this show were better than the first (my opinion of the first show has increased a bit with repeated listens too).  The crowd were much more vocal too, which he seemed to appreciate (though if you're going to yell out song requests why waste your time yelling for Hungerstrike when thats a song he plays every single night?).

On the other hand the girl next to me talked most of the way through the show (and manages to be heard on a few songs) - I don't really get why you'd want to pay $90 to go to a show and talk through it, but even if you do, please don't since you ruin it for the people that actually want to listen (not that she seemed to care).

The highpoints for me were Man of Golden Words, State Trooper (perhaps he could use a bit more looping in future?), Doesn't Remind Me, and A Day in the Life.  The low points - stupid talking girl, and Redemption Song (it's a great song, but I find it hard to take people seriously who play it acoustically, unless they happen to be Bob Marley).
