Tragic but not much of a shocker. 27 is way too young to die though.

    this is mind-blowing.
    Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    How is this PJ related, who cares. Think of the families people in Norway.

    Shannon was 28 and Nick Drake 26. Strange it's round that area.

    I guess she should've gone to rehab, yeah?

    I don't want to sound like an asshole but how is the tragedy in Norway any more Pearl Jam related than the original post? Should probably think sometimes just before posting some random reply.

    here, now it's PJ-related:

    So all you fools
    who sing just like him
    feel free to do so now
    cuz he's dead
    using, using, using
    the using takes toll
    isolation
    just so happy to be one
    sad to, sad to think
    sad to think of him more
    lonesome friend, we all knew
    always hoped you'd pull through
    no blame, no blame
    no blame, it could be you
    using, you can't grow old using
    so sing just like him, fuckers
    it won't offend him
    just me
    because he's dead
    Rock me Jesus, roll me Lord...
    Wash me in the blood of Rock & Roll

    I guess this is what happens when you say "No..No...No" to rehab... Yeah, I said it... It's tragic when some dies but not when EVERYONE tries to get you to clean yourself up and you refuse... even so much as to sing a song about it.. I am afraid she will go down in history as just another lost soul... Sorry, but that's my opinion.

    Thank you for keeping track, Mr. Helper. However, I don't think close to a billion people give a rat's ass if a junkie passes on. Check your math.

    I'm 27.... :?
    Good thing I'm not famous. Yeah, no big surprise here.
    Hearts and thoughts they fade....
    fade away...

    I am at peace with my lust.....for Eddie.

    Here is an idea, acknowledge both INTERNALLY and move on. Or we can debate about what is more important...losing one artist who influenced/inspired (not in an addiction way) Im sure at least 1000s of people or the 90+ victims who have been counted in the Norway shootings. I think the FORMER is a much better plan.

    mildly related....... doubt Vedder will be writing a song about her. RIP Layne, worry not, the comparison ends there!
