For me it was Cheater Bennington. Linkin Park music helped me through some hard times and I know some of the more impactful lyrics came from him and what he experienced.
Knowing he couldn’t take it anymore definitely hit Me hard particularly as someone I looked up to from young age …
Who was yours ?
His death hit me harder than Michael Jackson’s that same year
I remember I was driving when the news about MJ’s sudden death broke over the radio. I was on my way to grab some lunch before meeting up with some friends to see a movie. I think we were gonna see the “Transformers” sequel.
I pulled into a fast food joint and they had the news on TV. I felt bad cause Farah Fawcett died the same day but her death was entirely relegated to the little news ticker at the bottom of the screen.
