It was earlier reported that Cornell 's long time house engineer and tour manager, Ted Keedick, had said that Cornell seemed "high" and "f***ed up" during the concert on Wednesday night, hours before his death. 

The singer's wife, Vicky, said in a police report that her husband is a recovered drug addict. 

His lawyer Kirk Pasich also said that Cornell "may have taken more Ativan than recommended dosages" prior to his death. 

The toxicology tests will reveal if there were drugs found in Cornell's system at the time of his death. 

His funeral is set for Friday, May 26.
