I agree with you 100%, josh. (you too, rick) Nirvana never had any impact on
me...'except to make me wanna choke cobain for being such a fuckin' whiny
"rock star".

Everytime I put "Frosting on the Beater" in the player I think about how
badly Jon and Ken were ripped off by the flannel shirt kids, the "Grunge"
scene, and "Nevermind". I'm still in awe when I hear that disc how it barely
made a splash in the music world while Kurt made headlines everytime he
forgot his own name after washing down his roofies with champagne.

Courtney's a laugh though.

Geez, it's a good thing they don't make Quaaludes anymore!
