According to the setlist posted online by fans, Soundgarden closed out their show in Detroit on Wednesday night by performing the song 'Slaves & Bulldozers', which featured a refrain from the traditional gospel song 'In My Time Of Dying', which the band have performed live numerous times over the years. It features the following opening lines:

In my time of dying, I want nobody to mourn
All I want for you to do is take my body home

So sad. I saw Chris last July straight up acoustic set and it was amazing. R.I.P.  :cry:

From Twitter just now.

"The Associated Press‏ Verified account @AP
BREAKING: Medical examiner determines Soundgarden singer Chris Cornell committed suicide by hanging in Detroit."

Just now seeing this on Twitter during a break from work. So very, very messed up.

Soungarden, and Audioslave, front man Chris Cornell died of an apparent suicide Wednesday night in Detroit. In his memory, we are temporarily releasing audio we recorded of his last solo show performed at the Royal Theatre in Victoria on Thursday July 21, 2016.

We did not record the entire show because we were taking photos for the first portion of the set, but most of it is here.

Victoria fans who were there can relive that show with the embedded Soundcloud player below.

We are grateful to have had the opportunity to cover such an amazing singer and performer. Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and fans.
