Geezus they need to keep the rope away from rock stars.

12 years ago when I lived in Phoenix my roommates took me to the Big Fish Pub in Tempe where Bennington got his start with some local bands. It was a total dive but always crowded. Lots of really bad music. 

Anyway, rest in peace man. Thanks for the memories.

Man!  Linkin Park is one of my favorite bands of all time!  Bummer.

What is up with rock stars and rope lately?

I will miss his singing style and music.

That sucks. They are one of my favorite bands. He had so much emotion and passion for music.

Sucks, another one of my favorite musicians. Drawing from some dark places is what made their music great, but it's sad to see these guys succumb to the demons they've been battling all their lives.

Agree, those dark places, experiences, and emotions are great for artistic creation but many artists who master their trade and perfect their songs forget to work on their biggest canvas: themselves. We see this far too often whether it's a painter, comedian, musician or actor; they are driven by their demons but they never seem to escape them (well many do actually just wish it was more). I would hope that at some point they work on themselves and  work on understanding what drives them, but most importantly being able to accept it and move on.

I feel like Chester was actually making some of his best music in recent years and it's a shame to lose another great talent. God bless him and his family.

Sad. Their first album reminds me of some of the best memories with my college buddies. And working out...one of my favorites to workout to still.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
