Chris Cornell: has never communicated. Ever. If you think he did, you’re wrong. So if you chatted with someone online who said they were Chris, they were lying. Or if you were listening to a Soundgarden album and thought he was singing discernible lyrics, you’re also mistaken. In his first statement ever, Chris said recently “Under no circumstances, under any name or address do I or have I ever communicated or corresponded with anyone online or otherwise.” So all of you trying to decipher the lyrics to that one Audioslave song (you know the one) can give it a rest. It’s all gibberish.
Pearl Jam: The last vestige of grunge rock limps a little prouder today, as they’ve proven that they can still ruffle a corporate feather or two. During one of their many Bush criticism moments, the band was unceremoniously censored for using the phrase “George Bush, Leave this world alone.” AT&T, which produced the censored webcast concert, claims that they only censor excessive profanity and that it was a simple mistake. The incident has certainly raised a few free-speech eyebrows, and I for one feel that it’s about time we asked some hard questions about whom we allow control of our media. This administration thinks that it can bully support just because it is only accountable to itself, but they’ve underestimated the awesome power of the people!

The only ones holding on to "grunge" are rock writers who were either there, or wish they would have been. Time to move on.

While I don't understand what Dave's comment had to do with your article, I found your piece very amusing. In fact, I make it a point to read your pieces every week.
