Chris Cornell - RIP

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I wasn't a fan, but... yeah, this sucks. :(
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

A friend just warned me he hanged himself. (My first husband did that so folks rush to tell me when it happens to others.) Really heartbreaking.

How sad. Didn't listen to his music, but he always seemed like a low key, humble guy.

yeah thanks. ive heard of both of those bands but i still had to google him. there's a lot of upset people though ive noticed (on twitter mainly), including a lot of musicians i have massive respect for. seems he was a popular guy.

Yeah, me too. Didn't know all that much of his music. At least Soundgarden sometimes caught my attention over the years...
But hell, suicide, probably induced by his medication ... :( :( :( ... if it were not for the pharma industries and others who profit, I'd call it a really bad accident ...
