    Been thinking about this a lot today. Saddened deeply. Realized that I spent most of last night tossing in bed until around 2:00am. I'd been pulling up every live and studio performance of Hold On by PJ. Couldn't believe it when I woke up to the news. Those lyrics are really resonating right now as I think of Chris, his family and friends. Damn it!

    I still remember that day back in 1997 when I was driving my beat up old '84 Tempo to school and I heard that Soundgarden was going on hiatus and supposedly broke up. This doesn't even compare and I'll remember this one forever.

    I keep reading song titles mentioned by other people reeling this morning and each one is like a stab in the heart. His music was so thoroughly woven through my existence.

    Last night I was numb but this morning I'm feeling it all.

    I'm thankful they decided to do a reunion before this tragedy. Finally got to see SG about 5 years ago in LA after waiting about 15 years. Wish I made the effort to see them again, they have come around several times and I always thought I was busy, or over-budget that month, or traveling since they often came in the summer and said to myself  "I'll see them next time."
    I know I take for granted far too many things.

    Texted a very good friend at 4:51 AM about it.  His text back was the front of a magazine stating Victim of Death Hoax and had CC's face on it.  "It was on the TV this morning. . . CNN.  AP.  His website won't pull up . . . "  Told him that sadly, I thought it was true.  I was waiting though.  Just like everyone else.  Wanted to have him make some comment about some bullshit death hoax and how he was fine . . . :frowning:

    Can’t believe I woke up to this news today. Completely shocked based on the band’s recent activity - touring, writing/recording new album, etc., and by all other accounts, he seemed to be in a good place, especially since the recent Temple of the Dog tour. Now, hearing that he tagged their last song at last night's show with Zeppelin's "In My Time of Dying"... if those words he sang were not merely a coincidence, but a precursor to an intended course of action, then...geez man. Heavy stuff.

    Soundgarden is a band that was part of an overall musical landscape that had a huge influence on my own direction as a player. While I never had the opportunity to see them live as a band, I was fortunate enough to see Chris Cornell perform on one of his solo tours. While I personally prefer the “heavier” leanings of Soundgarden, his songwriting and vocal talents over the course of his career were undeniable. He will be missed, and my heart goes out to his family, band mates, and his extended family in Pearl Jam/TOTD.

    RIP Chris Cornell. :(
