Chester Bennington
Singer, music producer, chandelier.
March 20, 1976 – July 20, 2017.
Aged 41 years.

Most recognized for: In 2000, Rap-metal and Nu-metal had a baby… a hideous disfigurement called Linkin Park.  Chester was the spikey-haired little screamo boy who fronted this bubblegum abomination.  Over time, Chester grew up, ditched the hair dye & gas station attendant clothes, & got the opportunity to collaborate with & befriend his musical idols… like Chris Cornell.  We can only presume this is where he got the bright idea to hang it up.
