That Ed didn't throw in a Soundgarden or TOTD song makes me think a little higher of him.
Yeah that would have been lame

Is it possible that his kids were making him watch Sing? Cause my kids are making me watch it right now and I understand him completely.

That movie is undeniably horrible. I suffered through it at an actual first run theater, and have since had to relive this miserable experience on multiple occasions here at home since the digital release.

Exercise band self strangulation seems to me to be a tad bit overkill, however. Perhaps just the creation of a head sized hole on the living room drywall to see if the forehead can maintain the pain long enough to mask that of the movie.

We'll continue to see Matt.

Kim, we'll hear from him when it comes to Soundgarden stuff.

Ben, he'll probably vanish into that gloomy Seattle mist.

I hate it, because they'll probably never share the stage again in any real capacity, with the exception of an occasional tribute, charity, or special event. I really hope Kim and Ben will continue creating new music, but I'd be surprised to see anything substantial. Maybe a new Hater album. Kim will likely play on a few tracks here and there. I guess we can hope for more.

SG should've had at least another decade together. Now it's something that only lives in the past tense. Too soon. Way too soon.

exercise bands are stretchy, right? Seems like a poor choice if you're trying to kill yourself.

They can get pretty stiff the higher the grade.

Euphoria Morning had Alain all over it. It was basically an Eleven record.

It's not that he's not being reminded about it all the time. Pretty much every 5 songs tonight in Amsterdam you have at least one person shouting "Hunger Strike" or "Say hello to heaven"...
