Chris Cornell, of Soundgarden (and once Audioslave) has announced a solo acoustic “Songbook” tour, running from April to May 2011. This will be his first acoustic solo tour, in which he will perform songs from throughout his career, as well as a few “surprise” covers.
This news, despite getting me about as excited as I was when my Girlfriend took me to see Brokeback Mountain, is surely better than him announcing a Macbook tour. Seeing as his last album was some synth-pop tripe, made on a Macbook, I thought he may go for that angle instead.
