Ghandi?

You're a bit late. Someone got there before you.

So, that's the who. But why?

I think I'd try nipping that Nirvana thing right in the bud. Take out Cobain, early early early 1980s. Not AFTER he started nirvana cause that would change nothing, he'd still be a martyr.

Without a doubt, it would be Abd Allah ibn 'Abd al-Muttalib. That way 911 would only be listed as an emergency telephone number on Wiki.

Man, I don't even know where to begin with you on this one.

wtf is wrong with Cobain? He didn't make himself a martyr, and it wasn't him who asked people to do so. Unlike other, real, martyrs he didn't claim to be a god or a saint or anything but fucked up....It's not his fault he became people's idols!!

That guy used to live under bridges and tried to survive on his own talent.That's until his illness completely took over and died. His story wasn't a glorious martyr story by any means...It all is a crying shame. Bottom line: Someone's son is missing their dad.

So maybe you don't like his music...why would you want him killed?

lookout123 · 12-14-2007, 02:33 PM

because ibram is young enough that he never actually experienced what nirvana/cobain brought to the music world. he has only experienced the post-nirvana world where we have kids who weren't even born yet walking around wearing nirvana shirts and pretending they have a clue about what cobain was trying to say.

honestly i hated the whole grunge thing - but i saw nirvana in a lttle bitty club playing to a couple dozen of us while promoting their cheapo album Bleach. they were absolutely different than anything else being done at the time. I loved them right up until i saw a cheerleader at my school wearing a "smells like teen spirit" t shirt. i knew then it was over.
while i'm not a huge nirvana fan i don't think you can blame all the idiots on cobain.

one of my employees a few years back went to school with him (verifiable) and said he was a really nice, shy kid.

Mockingbird · 12-14-2007, 04:57 PM

Is it the cool thing to bash Cobain lately? I've seen much more of this in the last two years than I saw even while Cobain was alive. The guy made a good contribution. Whatever everyone one else did with it afterwards good or bad isn't really his fault.

Cicero · 12-14-2007, 05:07 PM

Maybe to have a "Ramones" moment, you have to bash "Cobain".

lol!!!

I don't know....I'm not as cool as most folks.
