Just been out walking listening to that album this morning and Fell on Black Days felt somewhat haunting. Can't believe this still.

Got tickets for a couple of Eddie Vedder gigs during the next two / three weeks. Still expecting to hear they're cancelled or postponed but if they go ahead they'll be very emotional I guess.

RIP Chris. Gone too soon.

I hope not. Got tickets for London.
 
Their lass has released a statement:

"Chris's death is a loss that escapes words and has created an emptiness in my heart that will never be filled. As everyone who knew him commented, Chris was a devoted father and husband. He was my best friend," Vicky wrote.

"His world revolved around his family first and, of course, his music second. He flew home for Mother's Day to spend time with our family. He flew out mid-day Wednesday, the day of the show, after spending time with the children. When we spoke before the show, we discussed plans for a vacation over Memorial Day and other things we wanted to do."

However, following Soundgarden's concert Wednesday night, Vicky noticed a change in her husband's demeanor when they talked on the phone after the show.

"When we spoke after the show, I noticed he was slurring his words; he was different. When he told me he may have taken an extra Ativan or two, I contacted security and asked that they check on him," she continued. "What happened is inexplicable and I am hopeful that further medical reports will provide additional details. I know that he loved our children and he would not hurt them by intentionally taking his own life."

Doesn't sound as though he was in the clearest of minds. :cry:

Mad seeing folk saying how much they loved Audioslave.

Be like Slash dying and everyone going on about Velvet Revolver.

Haven't read the full thread so it may have been mentioned earlier, sorry.

But MTV Rocks at the top of the hour has a one hour program on called Chris Cornell: A Tribute.
