    There's no grunge forum so I think this goes here. Personally he is the person who has had the biggest influence on my musical endeavors. Just thought it was worth mentioning a little something.

    Respect, love, RIP KURT.

    I know. I was 9 when it happened and I was just getting in to Nirvana. I still remember the day my mom told me he was gone. I think it was my first experience of grief actually.

    I remember hearing the news that he was dead.

    I forgot the date, wouldn't have known if you hadn't posted.

    didn't really learn much about him until after his death

    wish he were still around

    Its a real shame someone so talented died so young :( I would have been only 3 years old when it happened, So I only heard about him years later. Nirvana is one of my favourite bands; Makes me wish I was born in a different era... It would have been awesome to have seen Nirvana live in concert when they hit the big-time...

    How long was the shotgun?

    With that much H you think he would have had the time to pull the trigger?

    Hmm....

    I can remember it like it was yesterday. Well, not really, but 17 years isn't that long of time.

    That's my point. He did it all himself.

    But 99% of the conspiracy theorists won't be convinced anyway.

    haha gotcha. For some reason I was thinking about the ''kurt and courtney'' dvd by the same guy that did ''biggie and tupac''. He was big on the whole murder conspiracy but after making the documentary he himself admitted that he thought he did it.

    Truth is, Kurt was always a self loathing unhappy guy. He didnt want to be alive or to get better. He was kind of a brat when it comes down to it!

    He didn't like himself but I believe that that stupid ritalin did him more harm than anything else, it probably lead him to enjoy drugs more than he would have without it. But it's not just drugs, everything pointed at it, as shown in the biography.
