If you're so moved... It appears the full audio of his live album "Rock N Roll Animal" is on YouTube. It would be a very fitting tribute to give it a listen. The first 20 minutes or so (Sweet Jane and Heroin) are just so brilliant.

Very sad.

If there had been no VU, there would have been no Pavement.

Wow, that heroin is in my blood
And the blood is in my head
Yeah, thank God that I'm good as dead
Ooohhh, thank your God that I'm not aware
And thank God that I just don't care
And I guess I just don't know
