Chris Cornell played an intimate acoustic show two nights ago (June 18) at London's Palladium theatre, covering the likes of Michael Jackson, Led Zeppelin and The Beatles, and paying tribute to Paul McCartney – in honor of his 70th birthday. Cornell told the crowd:

It's Paul McCartney’s birthday today. He's 70. He was knighted. You know why he was knighted? He paid taxes...which I'm not sure is worth it. People call me sir sometimes, and I didn't pay shit...but I love him though.


To close his show, he covered The Beatles' 1967 track 'A Day In The Life'.
