Chris Cornell

This may be a little self-indulgent, but I’m sad and don’t really care.

I first saw Soundgarden in Newcastle in January 1997. If I’m honest, that wasn’t a great show – it was just a couple of months before they broke up, and in hindsight, you could tell they just weren’t into it.

Fast forward to 2012, and I was a music photographer, shooting my first Big Day Out. Soundgarden were back together and on the lineup. Here are some photos I took of Chris Cornell.

RIP.
