I didn't catch any of the Soundgarden "reunion" shows, but I was lucky enough to catch them a few times in Seattle "back in the day". The best was the show they did right before they broke up, at the Showbox in Seattle. It's a club that holds maybe 800 people and it was awesome. I also got to hang out with Cornell once because I was in a band (we never did shit) who was managed by Soozy Bridges, who happened to be good friends with Susan Silver, who happened to be married to Chris Cornell. We went to Soozy's for a band meeting, and Chris and Susan were sitting on the couch watching "Shogun". It was fucking surreal. I shot the shit w/ Chris and played with his chihuahua's (or some tiny breed of dog) and sipped sake over the course of a couple of hours. To this day I don't believe that actually happened to me. Our band was called Laughing Head, btw. I doubt you'll find anything online. I haven't searched in years. A guy names Kendall Fudge was the mastermind. I sat back and played bass.

EDIT: Holy shit, the CD is on Amazon! FYI I was a hired hand and didn't play on the CD, nor am I pictured on the album artwork: https://www.amazon.com/Smiling-Waves-Laughing-Head/dp/B000KGE67M

I was way into U2 back in the day. I read this book back then, U2: At the End of the World -- I found this passage where Axl makes an appearance:

> As Zoo TV tears across America on what is essentially a spring warm-up tour before taking to the football stadiums in the summer, Axl Rose, the mercurial singer of Guns N' Roses, shows up a couple of times. In L.A. he is one of a gaggle of stars backstage and it's impossible for Bono to get any sense of him. But when he comes to a concert in Texas they get a chance to talk. The women of Principle have no trouble reaching their assessment; they think Axi's a doll.
>
> Surprisingly little cant," is Bono's reaction. "It was easy enough to get a direct line. I can see why people like his music so much. There isn't much editing done in his conversation or, obviously, in his work. It's a direct line with his gut. That's what I like about it."
>
> "They're my favorite band right now," Axl says of U2. "I'm finally getting certain songs that I never understood before or couldn't relate to. I've always listened to them, but the only song I really got into was 'With or Without You.' I couldn't relate to their other songs because I was like, 'That's great, but I just don't see that part of the world.' Things were a little too dark for me. Now I can see more of the things he's talking about.
>
> "I bought Achtung Baby and I actually want to do a cover of the third song, 'One.' I want to play it on tour this summer. I think 'One' is one of the greatest songs that has ever been written. I put the song on and just broke down crying. It was such a release. It was really good for me. I was really upset that my ex-wife and I never had a chance because of the damage in our lives. We didn't have a chance and I hadn't fully accepted that. That song helped me see it. I wanted to write Bono a letter just saying, 'Your record's done a lot for me.' "
>
> When I mention this to the different members of U2 I get a series of different reactions. Adam smiles and says not to make too big a deal out of what might be only a passing interest on Axi's part. Edge says he already knew—a limo driver told him that Axl sat in the back of his car and played "One" over and over again.
>
> When I go tell Bono, though, he jumps right into the association. He says that every decade needs a band that will stand up and reflect the spirit of its time without any shields. U2 did that in the 1980s and they are not going to do it anymore—it's too painful. Maybe that's Guns N' Roses' role now. To be out there with all their nerve endings open, reflecting the currents passing through the collective consciousness without any irony or distance.

I see that Def Leppard has already done this with Hysteria.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Hysteria-Def-Leppard/dp/B072QFLZFP/
£75 for a collection of B-sides and live versions. Only for the dedicated I reckon!
If you're going to spend money on a band, the best thing you can do is see them live...

You can get Metallica's "Master Of Puppets" box set for $149 on Amazon right now and it has 10 CDs, vinyl and DVDs. The amount of songs you get is insane. Compare that to the GNR box and it's not even close.
