    I am wondering if Mike's interview with Mike Ness today at 5 (now 5:10pm) on PJ Radio will not be airing because of this sad, sad news...

    Ed's Euro shows start up next week, those will be heart wrenching.  Here's to wishing Chris' family, friends and bandmates some sort of peace

    People have some demons, man.  Very sad.

    Glad I got to see him at PJ20. Never the biggest Soundgarden fan, but obviously a big loss.

    That link seems to me like created nonsense, to shape a narrative from nothing.

    No one who were at the show, and has commented on here, seems to talk about it being all filled with signs of doom.

    And him walking across the stage and being soft/weak in his movements. Isn't that always how he's been behaving and how he plays guitar etc. Badly described but yeah. 

    How many shows has that writer seen with Cornell?

    So so devastating. I was thinking earlier he did his solo tour in Europe, then that one Audioslave gig, TOTD and now Soundgarden all in the last year. I can't help but think he did this as closure, as a final goodbye, to enjoy each of these moments, times, people and music for one last time.. I don't know. Thinking for the people around him and the PJ/SG community. Thank you for the memories and music Chris, rest easy.

    Friend of mine reminded me today of the time saw Audioslave at the White River Amphitheater south of Seattle (Lollapalooza 2003?).   There was this guy in a wheelchair in the pit.    He wanted to crowd surf to the crowd picked him up and there was this guy surfing the pit in a wheel chair.   Chris took notice and was pretty astonished by what he was seeing.  He got the crowd to direct the guy to the front, security covered the gap between the crowd and the stage, and he invite the guy to sit on the stage to watch the rest of the set.

    It was pretty awesome too see.  One of my favourite Chris Cornell memories.

    As the world tries to process today's devastating news, if you are experiencing a rough time, please, please, please reach out to someone you trust.
    This x1,000,000. I know it's a cliche, but it's there one silver lining to this it's the hope that it'll cause someone who needs help to reach out. One of the hardest things I'll ever have to do is reach out to get help for a mental illness, but there's not a day goes by where I'm not grateful for having done so.

    Articles appearing with comments from Chris' wife...she states that he was NOT suicidal and did not give any indications of such.


    No matter how well we think we know someone, and regardless of their outward demeanor and behavior, there is a stranger behind every person's eyes.   Only we truly know ourselves and what we are going through/thinking.

    So sad today.  Not just for the loss of someone I am a fan of but for his Wife and Kids.  He must have really been hurting and his lyrics have been telling us.  Rest In Peace Chris.  Wish you could have found the help you needed to stay with us.
