On January 1, 2010, Cornell alluded to a Soundgarden reunion via his Twitter, writing: "The 12-year break is over and school is back in session. Sign up now. Knights of the Soundtable ride again!" The message linked to a website that features a picture of the group performing live and a place for fans to enter their e-mail address to get updates on the reunion. Entering that information unlocks an archival video for the song "Get on the Snake," from Soundgarden's second studio album, 1989's Louder Than Love. The press has speculated that the band would be headlining festivals such as Lollapalooza, and the Reading & Leeds Festivals in the UK, although no official confirmation has been issued by the band. On March 1, 2010, Soundgarden announced to the people who signed their e-mail subscribers that they are re-releasing an old single "Hunted Down" with the song "Nothing to Say" on a 7" vinyl released on April 17th only at Record Store Day. Also, they released "Spoonman" live at the Del Mar Fairgrounds in San Diego, CA from 1996. This song is available for download on Soundgarden's homepage.

Rumors that Soundgarden could headline Lollapalooza were confirmed on April 5, 2010. The band announced on their website that they will play on August 8.

It is reported that the band has been rehearsing in Seattle in recent weeks as a precursor to their first confirmed reunion performance at Lollapalooza.

On April 15, 2010, it was announced that Soundgarden would play its first show since 1997 the following day at the Showbox at the Market in the band's hometown of Seattle. On April 16, an email went out to random Soundgardenworld.com newsletter subscribers with a link to purchase tickets. The show was billed under the pseudonym 'Nudedragons', an anagram for Soundgarden. Tickets sold out in just 15 minutes. In addition, a contest was posted on the Soundgarden twitter page, giving one fan a chance to win a ticket to the show.

The band played an hour-and-a-half-plus long set comprised of the following songs: "Spoonman," "Gun," "Searching with My Good Eye Closed," "Rusty Cage," "Beyond the Wheel," "Flower," "Ugly Truth," "Fell on Black Days," "Hunted Down," "Nothing to Say," "Loud Love," "Blow Up the Outside World," "Pretty Noose," "Outshined," "Slaves and Bulldozers," "Get on the Snake," "Big Dumb Sex," and a cover of The Doors' "Waiting for the Sun," and others.

I tried to get tickets to the show on the 15th. They were scalping for $1200 a piece. I went and watched the Mariners win 11-2 instead. No concert is worth $1200 for bad seats. Not even, Tupac, MJ, and Elvis in a combined comeback tour.

Does this mean Matt Cameron quit Pearl Jam, or is he pulling double drumming duty now?
