Well, I knew Chris was quoted saying he'd had a bad experience w/drugs at 13-14yrs. old, & mostly drink & smoking were His vices. Unfortunately based on the recent
images of Him I've seen, the thin, hollow, & tired tell-tale signs of ****** were apparently confirmed today, reportedly shot-up right before taking His life. Sucks.
He doesn't need Your sympathy, He's gone now, and unfortunately all those wonderful things You listed doesn't seem to stop people from trying the junk. Once
taken, it is not a temporary problem, it is a life-long fight with an addiction they will eventually lose. I will not excuse nor come close to justifying the terrible choice
He made to start using, but it's not My place to condemn Him for what ultimately happened, all I know is My favorite vocalist & a great songwriter/performer has
left Us forever on this planet. As for the above video, I was unaware they had made that long after I'd owned the 1st Audioslave album, when I purchased the
DVD I was blown away realizing how that song was made for that. The attention to detail in re-creating scenes w/them(or stuntmen) mixed w/the original footage
and film/camera quality & vibe is awesome, the ending is, well, metaphorically all too real now. God bless His soul & may His death not be one more lost lesson
on the consequences of drug use.........................
