Such tragic news...the day after my birthday. :( One of my all-time favorite artists, Chris Cornell, died on my birthday (of an apparent suicide). He was only a year older than I am. I met the man at his prime on his farewell tour, right before he began the addiction that may have led him to this unfortunate fate. He didn't appear to be suicidal and has gone through Hell during his life. If it wasn't suicide, I hope investigators find out who did this. If it was, DAMN those Oxycontin and prescription drugs that take so many lives...and 'Big Pharma' along with all the criminals in the medical field and the rest of the a$$*oles who take lives for the sake of profit. It's gotta' end... But I won't let it get me down. Thanks for the beautiful music, Chris. Rest in peace...
