Soundgarden Live Performance of Spoonman in Houston, TX

Venue: Bayou Music Center Location: Houston, Texas, United States Date: May 24, 2013

When Soundgarden took the stage at the Bayou Music Center in Houston, TX, on May 24, 2013, they were riding the wave of their comeback following a lengthy hiatus. Just a couple of years prior, in 2012, they released "King Animal," their first studio album in over a decade. This album marked their return to form, showcasing their signature blend of heavy riffs and intricate melodies—elements that first captivated fans in the ‘90s. Interesting tidbit: "Spoonman," the song featured in this live recording, originally hails from their iconic 1994 album "Superunknown." That track, along with others from their back catalog, delivered a nostalgic punch for longtime fans while also reflecting their evolution as artists. The concert was a thrilling moment for both the band and their audience, a joyful circle back to the core of their musical journey, making it clear that Soundgarden was still very much alive and kicking in the rock scene.
