And to think these people get to vote.

Hopefully they're engaging in sexual practices that preclude them from having children.

There was also the attempt by some to transform Cobain into that generation’s Lennon.

Cobain was a drug addict who came from a hopeless area. Aberdeen, WA is very depressed - used to be a sawmill town. The weather is usually not so good either. I would not live there for anything. But it’s hard to imagine that he wouldn’t have ended the same way no matter where he started. An addict is an addict.

Trying to use him to criticize Republicans is just stupid.

Polly Wants a Cracker
Heart Shaped Box
Come as You Are
All Apologies
Penny Royal Tea

Those are the ones that immediately came to mind.

Quick! When was the last time you heard any of those songs on the radio.

Oooooh. Sorry. Time's up again.

" Bunch of spoiled kids just like SF in the 60’s"

I'd argue that point. At least the plastic hippies in the 60's had talented musicians among them that wrote some enjoyable music that was good to listen to. These guys have always full out sucked about as bad as possible.

I am surprised that Stipe has not died of aids by now.

This recently amused me and within the last few weeks. I was in a liquor store and heard something from my distant past cranked. The employee seemed to be in his early 20s. I asked him what he was playing. He seemed a little bewildered that I had an interest and after taking a look said “It’s a band called....the Jam.” I told him I knew the band and song and even gave a brief lesson but my interest was from what radio station. He said it was a Pandora channel (fast forward to today’s technology) and it was “off he all-Clash channel.” I left knowing that today’s music must really be hideous.

I really enjoyed Beavis and Butthead, and Ren and Stimpy, but couldn’t stand Grunge Rock. But then I’m a pedal steel player, and my tastes in Rock tend to be old Zappa stuff.

There was a guy named Everman that was kicked out of Nirvana.He joined the army and made Rangers then Special Ops. He was one of the first guys in Afghanistan after 9/11. Google Evermans War. It was a great read from the NYtimes.

I remember Ted Nugent commenting on Cobain's death. It was from radio and a few years ago. Too bad I can't find his quotes.

I wish you lived next door to me! We’d have a ball. Sick, but memorable.

Easy to figure out.

Stipe is ragingly gay. AIDS was not well understood and Reagan did not stop the world from rotating to ‘cure it’. Ergo he was evil. Well more evil than the would have been/was considered by the average straight leftist of the era.

It is once again, all about the ‘gay’.

Also the heavy metal/hippie thing. It is well documented that HM was all about the sex, the drugs and the Rock and Roll. Ergo it’s ‘sexist’ and thus anti liberal because of it. Now to be sure there were generally lib HM stars/bands. But their liberalism wasn’t the fanatical style. It was mostly the ‘get me laid with more lib chicks’ style, doing a benefit concert and leaving it at that.

Let us not forget it was Dee Snider that was one of the three who slapped down Tipper and the lib created PMRC.
