At Behind the Setlist, we talk to artists to get the stories about the songs they play live. Most artists are known best for their recordings, but they love to be on stage. That's where the music feels at home. That's where they connect with the audience. How do they pick the songs to take the audience on a journey? Why do they cover other artists' songs? How many new songs can an artist fit into a 16-song set when people want to hear the classics? We find out.
Hosted by Glenn Peoples (Billboard) and Jay Gilbert (Label Logic).

So here's an encore presentation of the interview that focuses on Soundgarden's final show at Detroit's Fox Theatre on May 17, 2017, but delves into the band's history and its approach to delving into its catalog and putting together a concert setlist.
