Courtney Love

[Abraham Smashington]

My view on that is Kurt didn't have any sweet lady H and sobered up. Then he realized he had put his dick in her, and blew his goddamn head off.

Reminds me of that Family guy bit.

Bottom line, they were (she still is) addicts and enabled each other. Just as easily could have been her.

Exactly. I was a big fan of Kurt's too, but it's not like she forced him to do smack. Neither of them was very healthy for the other one.

It's easy to lay blame on her (she's still around) but they were equally bad with drugs.

Heeey, no one held a gun to his head! (*RIMSHOT*)

Sure I'm going to hell...

[Abraham Smashington]

if you actually look at the details of the "suicide" there seem to be some inconsistencies. Mostly with the amount of heroin in his system and his ability to actually blow his head off. I'm not saying she did it, but something doesn't add up. But yes, he was a tortured individual who was a junky, she's a junky cunt and their daughter is getting the short end of the stick.

And once again, all of my heroes are fucking dead.

Truth. Prior to his hooking up with Courtney, what exactly was Cobain's drug of choice anyway? I do remember he was plagued with stomach pains, and maybe an anxiety disorder. My Nirvana trivia is kind of wanting (I was more into Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains at the time).

ETA: To run with what Rob was saying about Cobain's suicide, I loved the fact that the guy who saw Cobain's body through Cobain's window (I think the guy that made the report was a landscaper or something) called a radio station first before calling the cops. "Q104.5? Yeah, I'm outside Cobian's house, and I think I see his body and some blood. Oh, and Q104.5 PLAYS THE BEST HITS!!!! What'd I win?"

But not equally bad in music. The real person to blame...fucking Krist Novoselic! Dave didn't like it, and wanted him to clean up, but Krist just let that shit go. Then he was all "oh man I'm taking my fortune and disappearing from public life" and hid, while Dave continued to be a public musician. What I'm saying is, Krist was probably banging Courtney and supplying the dope, then felt bad and ninja vanished.

He was doing Heroin back in the mid/late 80's. But it really picked up after they blew up and his stomach issues were out in full force.

Shame on you. All the Seattle bands were hooked on horse.

[Abraham Smashington]

Yeah. I was out in Seattle when Layne died. That was horrible as well. GODDAMMIT ALL OF MY HEROES ARE DEAD

[Ed Hocken]

You can always get new ones.

Mine are all dead from old age or osteoporosis. For all my unbridled excitement over FINALLY seeing Def Leppard last summer, it was tempered by the constant worry that Joe Elliot would break a hip.
