Update: It’s legit. A Ticketmaster link is even up, though, seating is believed to be extremely limited and there is a two ticket limit. Good luck and enjoy!
Let’s see… options for Friday night: Coachella? Preparing for Record Store Day? What about Soundgarden‘s first concert since 1997?
Well, if you’re in Seattle tomorrow night, then you’re in luck. According to Billboard, Chris Cornell and company will make their public return at the Emerald City’s Showbox at the Market on Friday night.
Though an official announcement has not yet been made, The End further adds credence to the report, noting there is no show currently scheduled for the Market tomorrow night and that Cornell has been seen in Seattle this week. The End adds that the show may be a private party, “and some sort of ‘filming’ is supposed to be happening.”
As of now, Soundgarden only has one confirmed date on its upcoming itinerary — a headlining appearance at this year’s Lollapalooza. The band is also set to release its very first 7-inch vinyl single, “Hunted Down” b/w “Nothing To Say”, this Saturday, aka Record Store Day.
