Two things to know once gates open:

1) We will be holding silence for the first two minutes of the match in memory of the lives ended or destroyed by the federal government in Minnesota this year.

2) Following the silence, we're going to do a modified version of Bella Ciao:

In Minnesota,
We raise our voices,
For us all, for us all, for us all, all, all

Your ears are ringing
For we are singing
For our friends and neighbors too

It was raw, primal and structurally defiant. Across Ultramega OK (1988), Louder Than Love (1989), and Badmotorfinger (1991), the band built a language that fused Sabbath’s heaviness, Zep’s mysticism, and punk’s volatility into something uniquely theirs. This wasn’t grunge as fashion, it was seismic experimentation, music that treated distortion like philosophy. Kim Thayil’s guitar work was central to that evolution. He approached the music like a chainsaw tuned to thought, filled with Eastern scales, droning overtones, and jagged harmonic tension. His riffs didn’t move linearly; they spiraled, pulling you into their gravity. Beneath that, Matt Cameron’s drumming blurred technical mastery with primal instinct, constantly subverting groove with polyrhythmic complexity. And then there was Chris Cornell, a voice that wasn’t just sung but exorcised, soaring from blues grit to operatic anguish with terrifying control.What made those records extraordinary wasn’t polish, it was conviction. Soundgarden sounded like a band searching for transcendence through volume, distortion, and dissonance. Before Superunknown refined the formula, their sound was dangerous, a bridge between metal’s architecture and chaos’s freedom. It was the sound of musicians daring to find beauty in the noise.#Music #Soundgarden

My favorite SG song. Fortunate to see them on this β€˜90 tour.

I asked Steve Brantseg which album he has listened to more than any other. Steve has played guitar in the Phones, Figures, the Suburbs, Bash & Pop, and a million other bands. His answer: the second studio album by the Beatles: β€œWith the Beatles.”

This ice β€œfish-fluencer” wants ICE to get out of Minnesota.

Nate Pischke has turned his indignation and outrage about the largest deployment of masked and armed ICE agents in US history into a call for hunters and fishermen to speak out.

"Nobody wants these ding dongs in our fucking city."

Please watch the whole video from our Saint Paul Olympian. It’s one of the most direct and eloquent statements about the situation that I’ve heard from anyone.
Proud to be a Minnesotan, proud to be represented by Rich Ruohonen.
