    He tagged Zeppelin's In My Time Of Dying during Slaves & Bulldozers last night, which i remember thinking was really cool when I finally realized what he was doing... I haven't followed Soundgarden as religiously as PJ, but someone please tell me that's just a coincidence and it's something he does during every performance...
    :disappointed:
    What in the actual fuck?

    Ive seen Chris and soundgarden 15-20 times over the years. On the Scream tour was able to get right in front and then chat for a couple minutes after the show back stage. Just a great guy. Its going to be one of those "what was i doing" days as I stumble thru the motions. Losing your heros truly sucks. RIP Chris.

    Just heard it was suicide. 
    That's what I'm hearing as well.  Hope it's not the case. 
    That is what I'm hearing now as well.
    He will be missed,

    We almost went to the show last night, but then didn't. My thoughts go out to his family.
    This already is a sucky day :( RIP Chris Cornell.
    Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue! http://community.pearljam.com/discussion/148993/please-pearl-jam-consider-a-vinyl-benaroya-hall-re-issue

    What the hell?! Just heard about this. Unreal. So sad and at a loss for words. Great musician. My thoughts go out to his family and friends.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Feeling so sad for Chris's family and friends, and of course Pearl Jam, who were so close to him. Sending my love, prayers and condolences to all who loved him. May he rest in peace.

    If true, Who knows.  Could have hidden his depression well... otherwise well grounded people can have a bad reaction to a medication...

    They have performed "In My Time of Dying" before. Hard Rock Calling 2012, for instance.

    I know people battle demons that may never go away but I always thought of him as a guy who had survived the most turbulent time in his life.  I thought he made it.  Really sad.

    I know it's a natural reaction when someone dies unexpectedly, but we can please stop speculating on the cause of death? We have absolutely no idea what happened. All we know is that we lost someone who meant an awful lot to an awful lot of people.
