Fans who went to see Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine at the Crocodile Cafe in Seattle last night got a special treat: Tadgarden.

Bassist Ben Shepard, Guitarist Kim Thayil and Drummer Matt Cameron, the three non-singing members of Soundgarden, took the stage with 300+ lb. grunge legend Tad Doyle (of Tad) handing the vocal duties. It was the first time the other three members of Soundgarden have played together since their dissolution in 1997. "Tadgarden" played three songs from different periods of Soundgarden's career: "Hunted Down" (1987), Spoonman (1994) and "Nothing to Say" (1997, featured above).

Soundgarden's singer Chris Cornell is about to start touring in support of the Timbaland-produced, universally-panned, and let's face it... embarrassingly bad Scream. Do you think he'll just sit there licking his wounds letting his onetime opener Tad take his place? Doubtful. Soundgarden's turn at the reunion cash-in isn't a question of if, but when.
