I wonder why nobody picked up on those interesting pics on the Soundgarden website. I'm not sure when but sometime in 2011 Mike McCready of Pearl Jam played a song or two with the boys from Soundgarden.
Interestingly enough Mr.McCready (unlike for instance Mr.Cantrell of AIC who played along PJ on Alive sometime ago in 2011) came without a guitar. So Mr.Thayil was kind enough to lend him one of his axes. Guess what guitar he lent Mike. Green S-100 (I'm guessing a reissue). Wasn't he aware that Mr.McCready is a "thrower" (of guitars that is). Served him right in the end. Just kidding
Here is a 3 photos long account of how it all came about (in my mind that is):
Mike: "Damn! What the heck is that thing that you gave me?! How the hell do you play on that?"
Kim: "Look. Just do it like I do. It's easy."
I'm getting the hang of this, Chris!
Chris: "Come on! DO IT! DO IT! DO IT!"
Kim: "He's gonna do it. Watch out everybody! Incoming! Ahhh hell. I guess I'll have to put on a make-pretend smile in public while he's breaking my stuff."
Mike: "This is what I came here for. Step aside boys. Fire in the holes!!!"
