Its a Nirvana evening. Sorry haters, Cobain rocked.

You can always come up with another "Grunge" artist that may have been better at this or that, but that's just because Post-Reagan Seattle was awash with talent.

1. He was good....just wish he wasn't so incoherent at times

[Taverner]

2. Ah but if you want coherence, check out Screaming Trees/Mark Lanegan

If you want dark beauty, check out Nirvana.

[TK421]

I'm on my third....I ended up getting a six pack

halfway there!@!@!!@$#2322

5. He swore he kicked heroin too...

So much for Junkie Truthfulness...

But damn, he was a genius

[no name no slogan]

8. At the time he wrote "Come As You Are", he did not have a gun

However, he did have a copy of "Eighties" by Killing Joke: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1oyfG6t2ew

Cobain nicked the melody line for "Come As You Are"

[Taverner]

11. I loved that

They "borrowed" it and totally admitted it the whole time

Just like Teen Spirit is based on a Pixies tune

14. Unfortunately, it took a lawsuit for them to pay royalties where they were due

The suit only got dropped when Cobain offed himself. But at least it got Dave Grohl to play drums on KJ's 2004 CD (which was f'in brilliant, of course).
