Nirvana’s music means so much to me. I remember the day I heard “Smells Like Teen Spirit” on MTV, I went out and bought “Nevermind” right away. I was a teenager in high school back in those days. I played “Nevermind” to death, I never got tired of that album. I still have that same album in my CD collection today. Never got rid of it. Never let anybody borrowed it. I kept it to this day. I love Nirvana.
The question you have to ask is, would Nirvana still be around, if Kurt was alive? Nah, I don’t think so. They’re just like every other band, they would have split up anyway for other projects. If Kurt was still alive, I’m sure he would have moved on to a different musical genre.
I love all of Nirvana’s album, but “Nevermind” will always stand up to me the most. I can listen to that album 20 times a day, and I would never get tired of it.
Happy Birthday Kurt, and RIP. I’m pretty sure Dave and Krist, Courtney and Francis are celebrating your birthday while you smile up in heaven.

I’m sorry, but last days fucking sukced.They were too afraid to actually show any real action or make any opinions or statements about Kurt Cobains death, so they filmed long scenes of unimportant actions in an effort to look mysterious and misunderstood and deep. Granted, Kurts last days did include lots of writing and thinking, but not in the way that this boring movie portrayed it.
I had no idea Kurt Cobein was 44 years when he past on to the nether region. I was assumifying that he was, in fact, much younger in his youth than during the days of his dismissal into the after hours of life’s rich pagaent. And since we all know that Courtney Hole pulled the trigger and then added lines to his scribe, how is she still a mother and not in State Purgatory? Fran, I hold your options in high regard, but since my baby left me, I have found a new place to dwell.
I for one am glad he killed himself. No dead Cobain, no Foo Fighters, no Zep reunion featuring Grohl and Hawkins
I agree Nutz! I am a huge fan of the foof ighters, I own all of every one of their albums. Even though I think they sucks sometimes, but I still love them during the times when I think they have a ray of awesomeness shining from their asses. But the Zep reunion with Taylor Hawkins and Don Grohl was merely to give Paul MacCarthy’s career a boost at the 12.12.12 live aid pay per view. In my opinion there will be no ‘official’ zep unitl all of the ‘unofficial’ zep areas are touched upon. Not that Paul needs the aid of helping, he doesn’t care at this pint.
Happy new year, kevin!! I hope your dreams all come true in 2013.
Thanks. I hope so too.

I doubt that Justin Beibler will be arrested for running over that writer, but he should be arrested for having ties to the purchase of said automobile that was pulled over to actually cause the reporter to peruse the police officer’s cop car. i have been in California once and the driving there is way faster because of their speed limit laws. In my opinion, Beibler is an ego laden local L.A. musician who got lucky because he was in the right place in the right time, ya know? he doesn’t even sing live, it’s all lip sinking and pantomimed coreography. You’re right about him, he is a viscious, ego laden, knockabout. If he was mega famous, he’d be an unemployed little twink, putting up videos on youtube and eating chees puffs.
Justin Bieber didn’t run over that photographer. The photographer was hit by oncoming traffic. Just an FYI.

Thanks for clearing that up, I don’t know what made me think that. My bad.
I once had a music historian explain to me that musical theories are a suckers bet. Think about it, there are only 12 notes across the musical scale spectrum in chromatical harmonic structure. Right? And with that we are able, as sophisto musos, to play anything we can hear in our ears. What I have been doing since I began playing, some 4 years ago, was to study the chromatical configuations on my bass guitar and in knowing this, I can at any given time play any given note on the spectrum! All of this without the acquisition of music theory or it’s forerunner, referred to as ‘chops.’ I can jam off of any chord, scale or riff. it’s beyond easy for me. It took me a few hours to get this down, but it was worth it. I can build a house of chords if I wanted to! Don’t burden yourself with the beast of music theory, learn it like martial arts. practice your forms, then throw that gunky goop out the window and play what makes your arse tickle!
