Temple of the Dog Announce First Ever Tour
Temple of the Dog, a group that includes Chris Cornell along with Pearl Jam’s Jeff Ament, Matt Cameron, Mike McCready and Stone Gossard, have announced their first ever tour, which will kick off on November 4 at the Tower Theater in Philadelphia, PA. The band released one self-titled album in 1991 and is celebrating the record’s 25th anniversary this year with a reissue collection that can be pre-ordered
here, along with the tour.
Temple of the Dog came together for a brief sub-reunion last year in Seattle, when all five members played a couple Temple of the Dog tunes during a reunion of the surviving Mad Season members. Cornell and Pearl Jam also collaborated during the band’s 2011 20th anniversary at Alpine Valley, playing “Hunger Strike” from
Temple of the Dog. Watch videos of both performances below.
Besides the opening date in Philly, this year’s tour includes stops in New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Seattle. A PJ/Soundgarden/Cornell fan club pre-sale is now ongoing through July 27, and tickets go on sale to the public on July 29. View the tour dates below.
