If it wasn't for Nirvana, who knows what crap I would of listened to instead. They were the best stepping stone into rock music that a ten year old could ask for, not crap.

Not crap.

It is.

I only saw them once, opening for Sonic Youth. Both bands were really lame that particular evening.

Except. For some reason. When Nirvana played In Bloom, which I'd never heard before. It was like a fucking jet plane taking off.

It was very odd. They were pretty pedestrian for twenty minutes, played In Bloom which was incredible, and then they kinda sucked for another ten minutes.

i have sat through every nirvana album and entire compilations of b-sides and such.

i think i can remember how 6 songs of their go off the top of my head.

nirvana is really forgettable. most of you read way too much into what was really just another rock band.

I think Nirvana had many great cuts on all of their albums.

It still boggles my mind how they were ever a huge rock band. They're great and all, I just don't see how Nirvana's music could appeal to so many people with their downer and sometimes werid jams.

I never saw Nirvana live, but I like to think it was pretty great. The "alternative rock" station here plays them fairly regularly, not only the big tracks but stuff like "Something in the Way" as well. I think they were a little more than "just another rock band" but what do I know?

I'd also like to see a post by TDF that isn't demonstrating how "over it" he is regarding all music, everywhere.

I've seen 'em three times (i think) and each time they killed. Got to meet him too. If you ask nicely, pwalshj might tell you his Kim Deal story from the Roseland(?) show. Or his Bob Mould story or his Kennedy story or his Johnny....


Not Crap.

threads like this just make me realise how weary i am of other hearing about other peoples' stated musical preferences. so many miserable cunts out there with too much time on their hands and a thesaurus at their side. who gives a fuck?

many of us have to face up to the fact that we are very boring people with a very limited social ecological niche. some of the fuckers on this forum remind me of something small and scaly with sharp little teeth that occasionally darts out of its crevice to snap at something smaller than themselves.

oh yeah.

Courtney killed Kurt - discuss.
