My next wish is for fat free, yet tasty, chocolate

An e-mail flashed first thing this morning on my Blackberry from my musical-butt-buddy, James. We have traded many an e-mail and text dissecting music from all walks. I introduced him to Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings, he turned me on with Eagles of Death Metal.

Today's topic of discussion was not a new band but a fucking wish come true. Soundgarden, back together and in the studio. Thank you, sir, may I have another!

I love Soundgarden, which you would know if you look at any one of my posts about Chris Cornell. I had hoped for an Audioslave redux or even ... desperately ... Temple of the Dog. But Soundgarden will do.

Cornell and other members of Soundgarden spent most of 2009 hinting that the long-awaited reformation was on the way. In March, all of the band but Cornell rocked together onstage during a Seattle stop on Tom Morello’s Justice Tour.
