Temple of the Dog

Hunger Strike Live Performance by Chris Cornell and Eddie Vedder at Bridge School

Venue: Bridge School Location: California, United States Date: October 26, 2014

Temple of the Dog, formed in 1990 as a tribute to the late Andrew Wood, released their self-titled debut album in April 1991. The band was a unique collaboration featuring members of Soundgarden and Pearl Jam, including Chris Cornell and Eddie Vedder. The live recording from October 26, 2014, captures their final performance of “Hunger Strike” during the Bridge School Benefit concert. This event is significant as it marked the last time Cornell and Vedder performed this iconic song together, underlining the deep connection and chemistry the two shared throughout their careers. While the band initially gained recognition in the early '90s, their legacy continued to resonate, leading to a resurgence in interest when they reunited for this performance over two decades later. The 2014 concert served not only as a poignant reminder of their musical journey but also of the enduring power of their collaboration.
