I love Built to Spill. They were not part of that scene.

When I hear Alice in Chains now, it stops me dead in my tracks and I’m instantly back in 1994. Not really where I ever want to return but man was Alice in Chains the goods.

The fact that his wife apparently had someone do a safety check on him makes me question that.

This was my first thought, too. He seems to have his shit together a little more than most of his peers from that era, so I think he’ll be okay.

Agreed. I think of Cantrell as the brains behind Alice in Chains, but Staley was clearly the soul.

I had the same thoughts about Eddie being Last Man Standing. Weirdly enough, Pearl Jam is the only one of the big four I ever saw live (shortly before Vs. was released).

No way. Layne Staley was the frontman, all the way.

Unfortunately sometimes just prior to a suicide the person can seem happier than normal, and this is often because they have made a decision to follow through with a plan, and are experiencing feelings of relief, etc. It’s really depressing and sad.

Oh no, I hope he didn’t pull a Michael Hutchence, beautiful men with wavy curls is my weakness and this just bums me out

Hey Kid -

I’ve had a crush on Chris Cornell since I was 12.

I read this like WAIT THAT WAS ALISON BRIE? WHAT!? HOW? NO IT WAS NOT.

Just start the Oxy habit now and be done with it, you’ll NEVER be the same.

Bobby McFerrin

The self satisfied smugness is strong with these folks.

I liked them and thought they were really talented on The Sing Off.

Me too! God, you guys! I’ve felt so alone, so very alone...

IT IS NOT JUST ME?!? I thought I was the only one who hated this group.

I’m taking this as proof there really is a god after all.
