playlist set for today :(
I LOVE Soundgarden...they are one of those "life changing" bands for me.
I'll be playing a whole bunch of Cornell for a while. RIP. This is a huge punch in the gut for me.

R.I.P., I have a few tears right now.
Sad. Loved his stuff. Grew up in the grunge era.
Soooo sad to hear this
I'm bummed. Probably one of my favorite bands and singers. Saw them many times, first time was at the I-Beam in SF and they opened for Faith No More. I was hooked after that. Shows at SJSU Event Center and Henry J Kaiser in Oakland for Superunknown and Down on the Upside respectively. Two of the heaviest shows I've ever been to, so much energy.
Cornell always seemed like a troubled guy.
Always classy Mike.Quote:

^^^^Damn, I hope that was not the cause of his death. Loved the guy and was really shocked to hear he had passed at such a young age.
Great, great voice. Endless style points. Sad.
I was at that SJSU show(& probably HJK playing the odds), Oakland Stadium with Metallica and a handful of others. Remember at SJ show there was no encore, they just turned around and left the stage. It was the first I had seen anything like it so was taken aback. But it kinda made sense too. So good live. Badmotorfinger and Superunknown were pivotal albums for me growing up.Quote:

Superunknown was the first non-U2 album I owned as a teenager in the mid-90's. It really helped open up my taste in music. Still one of my favorite albums.
Two nights ago I was painting walls in my basement while rocking out to my Soundgarden collection. The collection is cranked back up today.

Shadow on the Sun from Collateral is still one of my favorite tunes of all time. RIP.

RIP Chris Cornell. I was a little shocked to hear that today. i saw Soundgarden in the early 90s opening for Voivod. I had no idea who they were, but they were LOUD AF. Saw them again Lollapalooza 92. Blown away again. Still my favorite Soundgarden song:
damn brings back good memories of my old man of mosh days
one of those bands and a musician i ussually made an extra effort to catch
saw em with faith no more at the aragon brawl room and a memorable lalapolossa show were they were gonna quit playing if them damn mosh pit freaks didn't stop tearing out the lawn seats sod and huckin it at the pavillion seats and stage
to a natures light show audioslave gig out here as a storm rolled thru west and over the satch
them opening up for neil in 93 then coming back out for the rockin in the free world encore was tight
Radio just said suspected suicide?
