Kurt cobain remembered...

I was goin through some threads and got easily caught up in some of the moody threads that I have been readin. As well, maybe I got a little caught up in drama cause thats how I am. You know that kind of drama only real ex-junkies like me could appreaciate. Then I thought of a fellow junkie that put out alot of good vibes back in the day.I thought of Kurt cobain and how clean his music was.I thought out of all the music that I like, songs like all apologies set less a dramatic mood than what transpired at the end of his life.So I thought maybe others might have a nice clean memory of a nirvana show that might like to share.Or maybe a good positve vibe they can share. No racists please. No attitude please. Just clean peace..And if need be for all the activists out there, no war. (anyone caught runin their mouth ain't runin nothin but their mouth) :)

Aaah my mind travels back now to the day I first heard smells like teen spirit aaah yes... the angst... the anger... the smell...the long hair...it made such a nice change from the Aussie country music everyone elso listened to....I was in heaven.

Mr Tater sort of looked like Kurt in his teen years, feral, off his face, in a flanno and long hair.


Aaaah yes the smell....never had the chance to see them live... I had only just moved out of home and had no money in those years (Macca's pay was crap). :(

Coolness, Mrs & Mr potatohead ROCK!!!! Australia sounds like a nirvana to me, my siters husband's father is a chemical biologist out there in Australia, he is a lead researcher in breast cancer. Last name Sambrook if you know any Sambrooks out there he might be one of them. YALL ROCK!!

mmmmmm nup don't know any Sambrooks.

this household definitely rocks but the town where I live has shut down so many of it's band venues that it aint rockin much any more. So when Mr Tater and I wanna go out we got few places to go or we have to go to Sydney and that's like a 2hr trip.

I haven't seen much of Australia unfortunately, especially not the best bits because they are so remote, but one day we will do the whole roadtrip round Oz thing. Maybe when the young spud grows up.

I guess I could say the same about TX. I went to Oregon early in the year. Love to travel when life permits it. I noticed the same people as well on different threads (not to change the subject)It's always exciting knowing that everyone is from different parts of the world.

Can't wait to travel overseas, but I am afraid that by the time I have funds and time to do it I will be so scared about travelling on a plane that I will have to get a boat. I think I would pretty much go any where in the world cause I can't decide. Although in three years I am meant to be going to Norway for a karate thing but I don't see that happening for many reasons. :( Oh well one can dream.......How bout you got any places you wanna go.

R.I.P. Kurt..you are still missed... :(

This may sound completely cheesy but Nirvana sort of brought my high school together for a while. "Smells Like Teen Spirit" came out when I was junior, and at that time mainstream music was crap and then along came Nirvana (and Pearl Jam). My school was filled with different clicks (as are most) but EVERYONE loved Nirvana....everyone was walking through the halls talking about the songs and the "Smells Like Teen Spirit" video. Everyone.

My best memory is about this kid Bret. He was in my homeroom, a really great kid, and he loved Nirvana...he spent hours trying to dechiper all of the lyrics. He got killed in a car accident 2 weeks after we graduated, a terrible tragedy because he would've become a great man someday I bet. Anyway, whenever I think of Bret, I think of he and I standing at our lockers and how excited he was about Nirvana and him saying, "Mary! I finally figured out all of the lyrics to Teen Spirit!" And the smile on his face and how happy it made him.

If there is an afterlife, I'd like to think he and Kurt are smoking jays and jamming.

I want to go to Canada, cause of the good smoke and to get out of the States for awhile. Even if I consider myself a patriot, some times it gets a lil too violent out here in TX. Just the other day robbers where runin around with assualt guns popin off bullets at the cops carjacking car after car.Yall may have seen it in the news last night, that happened about 15 minutes from dallas .
Karate? What kind of matial art? I dunno any, but sure would like to learn some tae kwan do or just some clean self defense move that they teach SAS or SEAL or any other special forces.
But, I digress, "all in all is all we are, all in all is all we are." Yeah, its the next day and Cobain music is still makin me happy for some reason.Is that atrange or what ? It seems like music always provokes dramatic feelins cause I like to listen to the darkerstuff but for now, i'm in the mood to have happy thoughts and nirvana seems to fit that right on the dime!!! Groove man what agroove.Happy Birthday SHORTY!!!

i was a great lover of nirvana. they were my high school years. missed them when they came once and only.
i loved each ad every song they did, but teen spirit had a certain something.
he gave me a love of codeine.lol.
and the meat puppets lol again.

i was sittin doin nothin when me mate told me.
kurt cobain died.
didnt surprise me.
i had a commemorative cigarette to honour the occasion.

not a big fan of nirvana myself although i liked a few of there tunes,no disrepect to his fans or any1 else for that fact but to take your own life is a sign of weakness and selfishness in my opinion and was more or less down to the fact of heavy drug abuse!
before all you nirvana fans go off on one at me,yeah i was really good friends with a girl i grew up with through high school and we toked and chilled together at her house for years,we left school and grew apart and before i knew it she was involved with a guy who was heavily into drugs and they had a baby boy together.the guy decided to commit suicide 3 months into the birth of there baby and then 2 weeks later she done the same which left a baby behind,greiving parents a sister and friends which is heartbreaking to say the least. be your own man/woman.dying is the least of your worries its the people you leave behind that count.

ADELE NORMAN- may god rest your soul,there will always be a piece of you in our hearts

I think it's like a nice aged liquor ( wine ) once the artist is gone, their music tends to pass the age of time and still heal or rock people long after they are gone (Hendrix, Ramones,Sid Vicouse etc.) Then on the other hand there are those who survive like Dave Navarro, Anthony Keidis,et.

RIP kurt you and your music will be remembered forever.

LOVE Nirvana <3
