Matt and April Cameron visited Chris Cornell’s widow Vicky, and children Christopher and Toni, as Pearl Jam tour Europe. The visit took place in Rome. Eddie Vedder and other members were not present. Vedder did not attend Cornell’s funeral last year, and has been photographed with Chris’ daughter Lily.

The Camerons shared stunning photos of their hotel while on tour. Matt wrote on Instagram, “Our beautiful accommodations in Firenze.”

Cameron also shared a video of himself singing a KISS cover during Pearl Jam’s Rome set.

Vicky recently reached out to Pearl Jam members Eddie Vedder, Mike McCready, and Matt Cameron on Twitter to thank them for wearing Soundgarden and Chris Cornell shirts at a recent concert to pay tribute to the iconic singer.

She tweeted, “Thank you @PearlJam for remembering and honoring @chriscornell #familymatters #loudlove
Pearl Jam Emotionally Honor Chris Cornell Onstage For First Time https://www.alternativenation.net/pearl-jam-emotionally-honor-chris-cornell-onstage-for-first-time/ … via @AlternativeNation.net.”

Eddie Vedder, Mike McCready, and Matt Cameron collectively wore Soundgarden and Chris Cornell t-shirts onstage at the band’s second show at the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam.

The Chris Cornell Starbucks tribute graphic first seen on a Matt Cameron t-shirt was also shown on screen at one point as the lights were dimmed down. Vicky Cornell has previously hinted at that t-shirt being available for official sale sometime soon.

Eddie Vedder wore a Nudedragons shirt, honoring Soundgarden’s first April 2010 reunion show in Seattle. McCready wore an Ultramega OK shirt, honoring Soundgarden’s classic debut album.

Our beautiful accommodations in Firenze.
