I love you, brother. Thank you for your friendship and your humor and your intellect and your singular and unmatched talent. It was a great honor to know you as a friend and as a band mate. I am devastated and deeply saddened that you are gone dear friend but your unbridled rock power, delicate haunting melodies and the memory of your smile are with us forever. Your beautiful voice and beautiful self will always be in my heart. God bless you and your family.

Horrible news. Can still remember seeing Soundgarden at cbgb's way back in the early nineties. They were awesome.

And lastly, this fan nails it:

Kurt Cobain, Layne Staley, Scott Weiland and now Chris Cornell is dead. We have to protect Eddie Vedder a lot.
