I was 11 when it happened, and... I can't say I remember hearing about it, or if I did, I didn't care. That's how clueless I was about music at the time. But I've grown to love Nirvana, and even though it's vogue to downplay their signifigance now, and Kurt's talent, they were awesome and he was a fantastic songwriter.
Putting a shell through his chin... well, I've got no opinion about that. But he did, so it's none of my business. I love his music, and I leave it at that.

according to allmusic.com he died on April 5. I wasn't into Nirvana more than any other band back then, but I've since then gotten more into them.
Great stuff.

the first cd I bought was "nevermind".
I was a HUGE Nirvana fan. I was 16 when he killed himself. I thought it was sad - it would've been great to see how he would've developed musically.

when you're 16 and you like a band, that's what it feels like.
well, maybe. it didn't really. I'm just going along in the sentiment of this thread, really.

"its a shame what that woman did to him."
it was the stomach pains and the need to stay "underground" that did him in, not courtney

a famous conspiracy theorist named oxygenfad told me that she killed kurt and is keeping all of his unreleased music secret because she's been ripping off the songs for her own works for years. it wouldn't suprise me if it were true.

i was doing a report on celebrity influence on social psychology, i wonder how many people actually killed themselves after kurt did.
when marylin monroe committed suicide, the national suicide rate went up 12 percent the following month.
its really shitty though, people let celebrities practically dictate their lives to them
