Show Notes:
Well, I gotta say that there's not really much to say. "Drawing Flies" was 2.5 minutes of pure ethereal nirvana. I could not quit smiling. My final Soundgarden recording. EVER. Every show better than the last. They were just hitting their stride.
RIP Chris Cornell, you were one of the special ones; a diamond in the rough.
Beautiful, open-air sound on this one. CRANK IT!
Same with this portion, there are no words other than "Thank You, Dennis". if you can't comply with that, then eff off.
You fuckers know the drill.
---ballsdeep OUT!!!! (Gonna miss you Mr. Chris Cornell)
