Amazing show. Just a great band playing awesome tunes. No frills, music only.
Started out well. Covered a lot of material new and old. Sound mixing was pretty bad though.
One of the concerts of my dreams,the whole band was amazing and was everything I imagined they would be!! Every song rocked. Chris Cornell's voice was great and I loved the way the whole band blended together ,my favourite was the lead guitarist he is one of the best rock guitarists ever but all in all Soundgarden was worth the price to go see and I would pay to go see them again!! Soundgarden ROCKS!!!
Great acoustics with just a kick ass heavy set. Very different from the GM Place show last summer. This one featured heavily from the new AND relevant King Animal and included a few gems. But just a driving performance. Worth every penny
27 songs, non-stop playing. They played a sampling from pretty much everything they've released, high-fived the first row, talked to the audience directly and were super down to earth. Don't expect special effects - these guys are not fancy but they are true to the music. The smaller the venue, the better for this show. Highly recommended for any major fan.
glad i saw them 2 yrs ago at rogers arena...this event feb 10 was no where near the excitement or song selection 2 yrs previous. sound was crap. song selection was crap stage was crap no beer into auditorium was crap which i needed to get through this cesspool of an evening..........
Will always love seeing and hearing Chris! The sound was not great. Vocals could have been louder. Still had a great time!!
Solid show from a classic grunge band, good mix of old and new material. Vocal mix was a little off and times, and was drowned out, otherwise would have been a 5
"Great" concert in some respect as they preformed admirably and delivered a true rawk show. However, the concert was marred by very poor sound at the QE Theatre, noted for its wonderful acoustics. Everything seemed to get lost in the mix.
Terrible, terrible audio mix. It's unfortunate because he has such as amazing voice.
This was my second Soundgarden show since they got back together, and I have to say that although the first show at Red Rocks in Colorodo in July of 2011 was really good, the show in Minneapolis was far better. They're back on their game now, and except for a version of Zero Chance that sort of fell apart, every other song was solid. It was so great to hear them reaching back into the archives, and pulling up some songs that weren't necessarily hits but nonetheless awesome like Fresh Tendrils, Ty Cobb, and Rhinosaur. Ben was also the life of the party. He's awesome to watch. It was great to be there, and I'm glad these rock legends are back together and killing it again the way they used to.
The best concert I have seen ever! Amazing to be so close to the stage!
Nice quality set with solid songs, good fan interaction, and quality sound. The venue is small and intimate. Might be a little worse if you are short since the stage is fairly low. I'm 6 feet and could see perfectly.
Great great show, Chris was very smiling and in an awesome mood, full of energy and interacting very well with the crowd! All the other guys were in great spirits too, and the audience was in flames! 29 songs, old and new alike (missing a few fan favorites, but you can't have it all). The only strange part was the ending, they left the instruments on and ran away from the stage. Other than that, it was excellent!
Soundgarden played an amazing, aggressive and high energy show. The songs ranged from all over their catalogue and showed just how well the new album's songs stand up to past and how powerful the classics still hold up today.
Poor stage presence. Little to no crowd interaction/ A muddled mix of the terribly heartless new album & revamped versions of the old. The band completely drowned out Chris's voice. When you get back together after 10 years don't mess with the fan favorites!
As the title says, they are better than ever. Cornell's voice has all the power but he's more in control of it now. In fact, the whole band are better musicians than they were before the breakup. New songs off King Animal sounded great live, especially Eyelids Mouth. The old standards like Incessant Mace, Hunted Down, Beyond the Wheel etc. sound better then they did when first committed to vinyl. Considering the level of musicianship, if I had to describe their music in terms of a genre I would call it Extremely Heavy Jazz
Firstly let me say that I attend a lot of Shows and therefor I'm picky. Their sound was one dimensional partly because they only have one singer, albeit a dam good one. There was little change in song speed with it all being one gelatinous tempo. Each guitar player changed guitars several times but it didnt matter as the effcts settings made them all sound the same anyways. Cornel never addressed Toronto nor introduced band members. They didn't play their biggest hit, black holed sun, and for the end of the show they let their guitar s feed back so loundly people were stampeding for the door. I was dissapointed and so were the people I went with.
Been waiting years to see Soundgarden live and they did not disappoint. Amazing set-list and performance. No opener. Two and 1/2 hrs. Incredible! The venue is pretty good, a little out of the way and if it's a packed house it's tough to move around in the crowd.
Great show with lots of energy. Cornell really gets up close with the audience and connects with the crowd. Second time I see them and I'll definitely see them again!
