Chester Benningnton (Linkin Park) committed suicide oh shit. from tmz: "Chester was very close with Chris Cornell, who himself committed suicide by hanging in May. Today would have been Cornell's 53rd birthday."

It always scares me when Riot Fest posts the anti-suicide number before I find out who it is. Awful news.

I hadn't seen this news and was reading recent posts going backwards not knowing who it was and was genuinely shocked by this.
Sad.

That one caught me completely off guard. They had a huge arena tour about to start too.
I haven't listened in forever but they were definitely an important band to younger LoT. I probably still have a lot of their albums tucked away in the closet back at my parents house. Definitely at least have that Jay-Z collab EP

Collision Course still holds up. Its one of the more preposterous albums ever made but it holds up.

Wow, that's sad. We like to joke about their music now but the band played a really important role in my childhood. I haven't listened to them in a decade but I remember my first post on the old board being one in which I created a new thread to ask for Linkin Park (among a few other bands). Got laughed out of town for it of course (you know how the board was at the time) and I definitely never listened to them again after my tastes changed here but hey, it brought me to this place. Also, that Jay Z collab was what introduced me to him.

Huh, I can't believe he was still alive. Sounds like it was probably for the better at this point.

campbell in the trapper keeper three times: vp fair in downtown StL; champaign il for first farm aid in 1985, where he played his own set, and later played w/ the highwaymen for their second go round because kristofferson had to leave early; new orleans artists against homelessness show at university of new orleans in fall 1990, where he played a couple of songs and then had allen toussaint join him on southern nights. he was fantastic in front of a live audience.

Definitely an immaculate performer. My mom took me to see him at Old Town School like ten years ago and I still remember it as a great show.

Ah, ok. I know who he is but I'm not one who's familiar with the work of many comedians.
