The radio is always on while going through the morning routine before work. I had just gotten out of the shower this morning and the wife asked who he was, and that he had died.

I was like, "Whaaaaat???"

What a shit way to kick off a day. Soundgarden was by far my favorite band to emerge from the whole grunge movement. Chris' solo stuff was pretty decent also.
