RIP Chester Bennington

Apparently just hanged himself.

First Chris Cornell, now him. Too bad - I haven't really enjoyed much of their recent stuff, but they had some really good older music.

I guess he and Chris Cornell were really close and this would have been his birthday. Incredibly sad.

Outside of the lack of respect I have for people that kill themselves, I will state that he was talented and had a good voice. Not gonna lie, little shocked by this, as I thought he had his shit together. Fooled again...

Guess I'll be enjoying some Linkin Park on my next Moe's visit.

Sucks. I really liked Linkin Park and never had the chance to see them live. While they were not the biggest band, they were influential and had some great songs. RIP.

I still have a bunch of their old stuff on my phone, plays often in my car. Glad I got to see them live a few years back, one of my favorite bands in middle school. RIP

I loved LP during high school when they were still very new.

Not soo much their recent things but Chester's voice was always amazing. I wonder what they will do now with Chester gone. I doubt Mike would carry things on w/o Chester.

Sad enough that another famous star has ended his life by suicide...
Whats more to say aside from R.I.P.? Kids, do never try this at home because rock stars are no persons of perfection?

Saw them live at a music festival in 2008. Torrential rain the whole show, about 50,000 people stayed anyway. Band couldn't believe it and played their hearts out.

One of my top 10 show's (Seen hundreds). RIP.

Sound garden and Linkin Park. Probably the most played tracks in my car. Very sad.

RIP Chester B.
Loved his primal screams.....just powerful!
I find this whole musician suicide thing confusing,and we'll never know all the very real struggles that made this person kill themselves...very saddened for those he left behind and the suffering his death will leave.
