    sometimes that makes little or no difference. having suffered with depression for the last 20 years, I also have a lot of support, and I also understand how that can be of little impact to a suffering brain.

    So terrible. He was in peak form when I saw him with Temple in San Fran. Lost way to soon. Lots of love to his family immediate and extended.
    Totally agree.  I'm grateful for having been able to see that show, they were incredible.  Really sad day.

    I'm not sure if I believe in a existence after death, but today I truly hope Chris and Andy are reunited somewhere and making beautiful music together...

    Absolutely heartbroken...

    Really tough start to the day. Thoughts with the family, friends, and all the fans like myself.
    There has been a good live tribute on sirius xm channel 106 today.

    Candles burning yesterday,
    somebody's best friend died ...

    born without a friend,
    and bound to die alone.
    im thinking of your highness,
    and crying long upon the loss.

    Cuz I fell on - black days,
    ... just like suicide.

    And the seasons roll on by.

    It's been a CC/SG music day for me at work today... listened to nothing but his voice. Songs I've listened to over and over again still give me goosebumps. Blind Dogs @ 3:39 when his vocal chords scream in...

    Now it seems like too much love is never enough
    Yeah, you better seek out another road
    'cause this one has ended abrupt
    RIP Chris. Lolla '96 was my only chance to see you perform but it was truly mesmerizing. Your influence will be forever felt.

    Totally NUMB.  Can't wrap my head around this.  Sometimes life just throws unimaginable things your way.  Very Sad.  So Sorry to hear this news.
    All the best to his family and friends.  Not fair at all.  Can't believe it's true. What an absolute heartbreak.
    There's no need to say goodbye

    I just saw him in Alabama and was supposed to see him again in Texas next week. I feel sick. How is this really happening? I'm so devastated for his family also. R.I.P. Chris, thank you for everything.

    This is somehow feeling worse and hitting me harder than '94 did. Maybe because unlike Kurt this seems so out of the blue. Maybe because of how connected Chris was to Eddie's rise. Maybe because I was totally doped to the fucking gills at TOTD NYC and immensely regret blowing that experience ... I don't know but it's cutting so hard. Grrrr. :-/
