stip really understands the healing process. "March Madness style tournament" comes right after bargaining, allowing you to skip depression altogether on your way to acceptance!

This isn't a Cornell Conspiracy tourney? That could be epic.

It's an experimental technique, but I think it has a lot of potential.

We'll probably start this in about two weeks. I'm going on vacation and then moving. Once I have internet in the new place I can get this up. In the meantime I'm looking for a list of all his studio non album tracks (formal releases, please). Post them in the Soundgarden thread so I can keep this all in one place

If we combined this with ranking his catalogue I'm pretty sure we could bring him back from the dead.

Apart from KD picking some Euphoria Morning songs and LV picking some Audioslave songs, won't it just become a Soundgarden tournament?

I think you may be confusing a draft style tourney with a March Madness style tourney.

Vicky Cornell tweet several days ago:

"I'd like to clarify that contrary to media reports it is untrue that @chriscornell 's last words to me were "I'm very tired"

the end sucks wrote:There was an article with Chris on April 17 2017 where he talks about having 'daymares' after watching genocide images/footage when preparing the song for the film THE PROMISE. Does it mean anything? I can't really say yes or no. I read that article when it was published and I thought his reaction seemed a bit odd.
Chris started his Twitter account back in early 2009. If you search by date, you can see early on that Chris was very prolific and fan friendly in his tweeting.

It's pretty interesting, actually. Chris answers fan questions, asks questions himself, gives some insight about his feelings on a variety of topics, including the family. I noticed he talked about dreams a lot, very vivid dreams. Talked about dying in dreams frequently, but how he would always wake up afterwards, dispelling the whole myth about death in a dream = body dying in real life. He seemed fascinated by life, death, and the dreams he had.

It was a fun time on Twitter. I wish Chris would've continued the same kind of activity through the years like he did when he first started it up.

@chriscornell? She can't refer to him by his actual fucking name?

She has to @ him if he's going to see it, silly.
