Will Matt Cameron be playing with both bands?
Apparently yes.
"Excerpt from a new interview with Chris Cornell at RollingStone.com:
Pearl Jam are planning a big festival in the late summer to celebrate their 20th anniversary. Drummer Matt Cameron divides his time between the two bands, so it makes sense that Soundgarden might get invited to play too. “I haven’t heard anything about that,” says Cornell. “Whether it makes sense or not depends on if you’re Matt. He might not want to get carpal tunnel syndrome.”
A dream for fans would be a reunion of the early Nineties grunge supergroup Temple of the Dog, which also featured Cameron on drums. “We could also get Matt to play in a few other bands,” laughs Cornell. “He could just play until basically he has to go to the hospital.”
