Gigs From My Youth - Awesome DVD Coming Next Week

Okay dokey.

Next week Nirvana release probably their best Live gig at reading music festival. It was a bloody amazing gig and I remember watching it on MTV when I was 12 and it blew me away.
One of those moments in history you feel apart of something special.
Not sure people now can see what I see and feel the emotions I felt but boy it must have been like the 70's with Zeppelin and Pistols.

But its released next week and I'm def picking up the DVD.
Kurt and krist are on top form and Dave Grohl is fecking awesome on drums. Feck off Foo Fighters and put Dave back on the drums...

Fecking love them...teenage dreams, love, drugs and booze...man those were the days...

couldnt and still cant stand that dirty sl*g Courtney Love though

neither can I - she wanted to meet me once - I use collect comics and had a special folder at a comic shop because I special ordered weird stuff mostly indie comics, true crime stuff etc anyone she looked through my folder - turns out she was friends with the couple who owned the tattoo parlor next door to the comic store. anyway they told me and said, awh come on she'll take you shopping, spend loads of money on you and give you lots of coke (not coca-cola)- I said no and said it repeatedly - they kept trying to convince me to meet her because she thought I was "really cool" - well I am but how did she know by my comic spending choices?

anyway this was about 3-6 months after Kurt Cobain was dead and she was in New Orleans stalking Trent Reznor

I still dont believe he commited suicide and I think Krist for definate agrees.

I aint going down the whole root but it seemed a strange time for him to commit suicide when things were on the up, only thing falling apart was him and courtney and she was the one fecking him up and he knew it and was getting himself together.
He had a lot of shit we all know about with pain and addictions but I dont believe he had just had enough and was a tormented soul and then blew his brains out.

supposedly it was Il Duce from The Mentors who was hired to do it.

however I'm going to disagree with Boosh here - I don't think Cobain wanted all that fame - one of his fav. bands was Flipper and when he thought of success - in the ooh yeah we've made it kind of way he wanted to be as big as Sonic YOuth - that to him was success to be as big as his heroes.

yes quite a few people know who Sonic Youth is but they were never top 40 and I really think he had issues with that a lot of people who became his fans were the kind of people who would beat him up in high school - I think he thought fame was like a cancer and I'm willing to bet he wanted done with it and the people around him wouldn't let him - he didn't want to be some rock star and have his personal life as evening news.

the album with lyrics like rape me - pretty much said it all - and when he decided he wasn't going to do it anymore he became a liability - the cash cow wasn't playing along and was easier to manipulate dead

Gus Van Sandt's film about it gives some insight into his final days there's also the Nick Broomfield doc on it.

I don't believe his wife loved him - I think he was all alone - he hated Dave Groul foo-fucker and Dave wanted fame and money as much as the slag did.

if he did kill himself then he found the best way to be free of it all - they could make money off his name and he'd be dead so he didn't care

why disagree with me?
I totally agree with you, he def wasnt happy with fame he liked to be taken serious like any artist and he loved bands like flipper, s youth and vaselines. He liked things that are interesting and went from leadbelly to rem.
But i dont believe he killed himself...
