I saw an interview where Kurt said his personality was bits and pieces of different people he had put together, spiritually speaking that's quite an elevated quality or ability..
That's very #adhd and #autistic ...Kurt was ❤ neurodivergent❤ & diagnosed ADHD in childhood He also expressed feeling like an alien - a neurodivergent perspective of what it feels like to be amongst, primarily neurotypical people. Less or no eye contact #autism shy and awkward around others #neurodivergent Spinning in his chair during unplugged #adhd vulnerable to abuse #adhd Wish Kurt lived today to connect with his other aliens. #justiceforkurt
Well, maybe he could've been depressed without showing it. Thats pretty common upon depressed people, Kurt also seemed way more positive in interviews before "Nirvanamania" hit.
I think there are 2 main influences: drugs and Courtney. Both go hand in hand with each other. So it's difficult to tell how Kurt would have coped with fame without all this shit going on. While it's debatable if Courtney introduced him to heroin addiction or vice versa, you can definitely say that Courtney introduced him to a lot of other chemical drugs like Rohypnol and Valium and I don't know what other pills...just consider that one time in 93 when she "saved" his life: she gave him a lot of several pills. She always reminded of this girl of Cheech & Chong that has a whole set of pills in her bag and is like "you need this for that and blablabla..." Before Courtney, Kurt was into the classical drugs: weed/pot, acid, speed and didn't like coke.
i think Kurt maybe was just Kurt, a kind of down to earth, yet a little bit eccentric kind of guy. And over time he got a real bird's eye view of fame, the music biz, haute couture, hollywood, etc. and came to despise it all. And of course the poor guy also got to see, over time, how dialed into the very things he despised, his new wife was. And how she loved all the stuff that he couldn't stand. Yes im sure thats a depressing realization. But didnt Courtney say he purchased 2 airline tickets for flights out of Seattle? Why would he do that if he was just going to go home, and commit suicide?
He wanted the music to be big but didn't want attention on his personal life because of the addictions and family problems. He's friendly when people do not bring up those issues. He was obviously had narcissistic disorders but his fatigue and laziness is probably from round worms or another parasite. Parasites will make people kill themselves.
These are the perspectives that needed to be cemented as they seem to me to be very genuine and unedited if you know what I mean. I feel like after 25 years I have my image of Kurt and feel like I know him in my own way, which happens with the artists that impact our lives in very real and major ways. I can imagine actually having an old bond with someone like him and watching the world create this version of them that might not be correct, so I really respect your sharing that personal part of yr life with us (however much, or little you choose.) I know that personally, if you asked 5 of my closest friends to tell you what I'm like, you will get 5 different versions back, with everybody feeling that they are right, and they would because we're different around different people, especially at different ages. One thing that's true though is that there will always be common traits that everyone will know and those are the truest parts of ourselves. From what I've heard Kurt was a kind, and complicated man with a troubled soul. He did so much in the little time he was here, and he made an enormous impact. I'm glad you two crossed paths on this weird journey and that he made one on you as well. Thank you again.
Hey man could I interview you concerning Kurt Cobain? I am attempting circulate my first Edition of a totally DIY Literary Magazine. Your interview would take the intensity of the First Edition of what I hope to re capture the ",poetical sentiment & composition"
@@Maxx-ib6nrSame. And to play. And playing made me focus on poetry and prosa poems. I had read since 6yo but just prosa. Playing made me to play records (DJ), mix & remix, release a music and all those affected to me that I started to write and paint oil & acrylic canvases. Huh.
Thanks for another great video....I've ALWAYS tried telling people to really listen to Kurt's lyrics...they tell a LOT!! Also, SOME interviews his genuine sincerity comes through but others unfortunately have been edited out.
Cobain: MOH... I hated that movie even more than I expected.. they sold it as an indebt and closer look at Kurt but just went with his image of the tortured poor artist who was mentally 200 years old when he was 25. Lots of beautiful art direction and stuff.. but complete shit as a documentary!
Most of the interviews were real. Courtney knew the rock star Kurt that she idolized. That is a big problem right there. Kurt probably got really tired of her shit at about a year and a half in. He wanted out. Point being....the second half of the movie was a mess.
the Observer Interesting that you mention how she knew the "rock star" Kurt. She always came across as an opportunistic groupie to me. She probably grew tired of him as well as she realized he was not interested in the glitz and glamour.
That's what I hated about that movie. I never could really understand happened there in early 94. I expected to learn something that would make me comprehend the situation at least a tiny little bit more. Even my girlfriend, who has no interest in Nirvana & everything that has to with idolizing stardom, told me that she thought Courtney came away much too good in this documentary.
Xavier Roberts Frances didn't want that scene included. www.independent.ie/entertainment/music/frances-bean-cobain-i-feel-like-i-have-a-deep-spiritual-understanding-that-most-people-probably-dont-37165902.html
I just learned of your channel. Wow...these stories are amazing for big fans like us. Thank you so much for uploading these. I’m racking my brain for a good question to ask you.
Love your videos man, so great. Keep them coming. Would love to hear more about Kurt around 1994. Theres so much mystery surrounding it. For example rom the early days to Dec 93 did you notice any changes due to drug use? Did you see him doing it? For someone they say was so deep in heroin by 94 to me he never really looked like it in pictures etc. Yet I have heard many overdose stories, but he always seems functioning? Anyway, thanks man, great stories.
He what ? Ever since around ´Nevermind` came out I can´t seem to watch a video where Kurt ISN´T 100% under the influence of either an opiate or an opioid ( latter so he could function and look ´normal` before his opiate naive fans ). He could hardly stand during the recording sessions of ´Houdini` according to Buzz , a childhood friend who´s got every reason to ´ridicule` him for having let himself be pushed around by wife/management/Geffen execs to become everything he was against earlier on . Learn to accept things : By the time Kurt vanished he was no different from any street junkie at a personal level . Same wave length ... there was just the mansion, the abusive wife ,and pressures he hardly could have antecipated, mounting up . Sorry if that sounds harsh , but whoever knew him knows this is fact , no point in attempting to sugarcoat any of it. ´Needles, needles, keep´em coming !!!!` ( With a box of used needles just against the wall - I´ve only seen that in hardcore junkies´s crack houses, who eventually turn into pin cushions from nearly constant usage ... yeah, ´fake news` that ! )
I have a similar way and connection to him in a way. I'm very antisocial and I have so many things pinned up inside me. I am always willing to be an open person with anybody i'd call a friend these days. I really don't give a fuck what people think or say about me. I always feel people dont appreciate my well being. And that shit makes me sad. Its hard for me to make friends. Kurt, in my opinion is one of the nicest guys you could meet. I never met him or was around to, but I felt that he was a friendly guy, and I compare personal things that i have with Kurt. I just hope one day that this music career I chose is good enough for me to get out there and make friends to form a band. I just want to do something...
Dude I'm so happy to find someone who can help me answer my million Nirvana Q & A . Also Thank you for videos : ) So if I may " If Kurt was drinking alcohol , What was his favorite ? " and " Did you ever get Kurt to laugh ? If so what humor did he enjoy ?" Again Thank you for your time .
Hey 'ramble' all you need to man, as always fucking great to hear your personal perspectives and stories, so thanks so much again, yeah I was one of those holding out hope for 'Montage of Heck' being this great tribute to Kurt and finally some kind of well crafted and thought out kind of visual bio-pic but had some fears knowing Courtney was producing this, I agree the first part was great, the animation and story telling was excellent but unfortunately ended up in the later part of the film really painting this narrow negative false picture of Kurt it was really offensive to me and put me off the film, which is a shame because I liked some of Brett Morgans earlier films, but I guess Courtney needs to keep everyone believing Kurt was this helpless junky etc, would like to hear your views on what happened to Kurt in light of Tom Grants 'Soaked in Bleach'? I'm sure you have something to share on this one day, thanks again.
Hi, the observer. Great videos and really appreciate your input and insight regarding your memories and relationship with Kurt. I too would be interested to hear how you feel about the theory that Courtney had Kurt killed because he was planning on leaving her and the music business.
That was going to be my question as well. I remember hearing Tom Grant on a radio show when I was about 14 years old (in 1995). I only wish more people took him seriously way back then. I would LOVE to hear what your opinions are on Courtney and the whole situation. Thanks so much for your videos! I could listen to you "ramble" for hours
Man I love your videos so much. I’ve been a fan of nirvana for a long time and was lucky enough to have grown up during “their” time. I was also a big fan of opiates for many years but I am clean now. Coming from an opiate addict that has been through it all I have always felt a close connection to Kurt. The depression that comes along with addiction is definitely real, it changes you in a way that is indescribable and ruins every aspect of your life. I feel like even tho I am clean now I may never be the same again and it sucks. I feel like the same thing kinda happened with Kurt and it makes me so sad. Even to this day though he is such an inspiration to me and hearing these stories about you and him sharing time and hanging out really makes me happy. Thanks so much man and please keep the stories coming! I’m sure that I’m only one of many that enjoys hearing your perspective on someone that was so special. Take care my dude
And what about this Cali guy? He just split? That's weird...very weird. It's quite ovisy shit was not how it looked. Anyone could tell Kurt had a good soul. I love doing my tribute band. I love singing his music for his fans. I think he would be pleased.
WOw, i love your description of Kurt. Very comforting, left me wistful, and he appears to be pretty much as i imagined in my minds eye! Stumbled upon an interview about a weekend ago. Are you familiar with the interview in which Kurt shares a little bit about his Cobain Coburn heritage? Well there aren't that many Coburns out there either. I am one.
Thank you for all of your videos! These are the questions I've always asked since I first got Bleach for my 5th birthday (My parents are both fans of him/Nirvana). I was born in 96 two years after his suicide and just hearing your perspective on his attitude and perspective on life truly helps me as a fan of him and Nirvana. Truly an inspirational man, and personally I think you are too for having the courage to expose these songs because he and Nirvana as a whole truly inspired the current generation of rock we have nowadays
So you’re answering me in this vid haha Thanks, again. I’m fucking grateful. And it’s nice knows that you’ve collaborated for the movie.. also thanks for it. Do you have any memory of Kurt complaining about his stomach?
the Observer so was it a persistent stomach ulcer that wouldn't heal? Where the hell was the proper diagnosis (was there one?) from his doctor/s and how come it wasn't remedied properly? I mean how on earth did he decide between not obtaining proper medical remedy versus him thinking something like "ah well fuck it, I'll do heroin"? I know I sound cynical putting it like that but I can't help it. If only it didn't go that way. :-(
Buzz of the Melvins sez the stomach stuff was bullshit, and he leaned on that to legitimatize his habit. www.talkhouse.com/buzz-osborne-the-melvins-talks/
What bands did you guys listen to? I just don't see you guys at that time listening to the bay city rollers😂. Yeah I'm from the same era 🍻. And thank you for the videos! My favorite memory is seeing Nirvana for the first time on Saturday Night Live and my wife who was my girlfriend at that time, looked at me and said " You like them?" and I said "Hell yeah they rock!" Commercial music sucked back then. And I waited months before Nevermind hit the store shelves before I could listen to the whole album. How times have changed.
Just Remember this. When your in front of a camera you act different. Also no offence to Cobain, it was a rock star act.......The whole thing was imo a way to sell an image almost. I have a friend years ago, whos older sister met Cobain 5 or 6x, they had teas together and chilled. It was really cool to hear her stories......the thing about those stories was, He was a friendly , funny dude!
I am not a very funny person in fact a lot of the time back when I was 19 I was very serious about what I did. I do remember Kurt with quick humor. There really was not a lot of laughing in our conversations. We were both serious people. Different people bring out different things in people if you know what I mean
the Observer some definitely do. She prolly wouldn't call him the funniest person ever but he was in a mood that day apperently. Making some jokes etc. I personally won't peg him as a joker from all the videos I've seen, but it seems like he had a bit of a humorist side to him from time to time....
I believe everything you say butt, the drugs changed him. From experience stay off the hard stuff. I would say it only took a year of drugs and evil friends. Stay with loving people.
Thank you for new video, u deserve more views and subscribes. I have one question to you. What you think why people idolize kurt? What was secret of his charisma? He passed away long time ago, but today much people idolize him, they love his personality, his clothes, his hair and everything about him. How he was so charismatic and so mystical? (I am big fan of him.)
Yes he was infectious. There is a real honesty with Kurt and at a young age. I was way more naive. He was very in tune with what is real. I think everyone gets so lost in their heads they forget to really look and listen right in front of them. I think Kurt had that natural ability to see things in a very real perspective.
I think he really had his own style and he was amazing for that. Again that is one thing Kurt was very original without trying to be. I think he played a lot on his own.
I just saw the Melvins last year and was right in front with my wife. We both didn't know their music very well, but we both loved it. (seriously, do yourself a favor and see them live. You'll really enjoy it even if you don't know their music. They're experts at putting on a show.) For some reason, being 2 feet away from a band Kurt used to worship, a bunch of guys who knew Kurt so well and played in bands with them (including Dale who was in Nirvana), I had a strange epiphany, that all the stuff I thought I knew about Kurt was just a bunch of BS. It was like at that moment I realized Kurt was just a dude, just like these guys. All the magic there was about him can only be found on the records. And as a man, he was no different from anyone else. Sure, he was of higher than average intelligence. But other than that, I just came to realize that if he were still alive and I had the chance to meet him, aside from initially being starstruck, I'd be a bit disappointed that he didn't radiate angelic glory like I expected.
I swear each of your vids I watch keep getting better and more introspective, the way you explain things is very thorough and you just seem like an awesome guy
I wish I had met Kurt his birthday is the day before mine same year, similarities in some ways growing up( except I wish my parents had divorced for they were a match made in hell) always cherish your memories of Kurt good video :-)
This just came up In my recommended. Forgive me but who is this guy? There’s nothing in the description and no name other than a general bland channel name. What’s his name and relationship to Kurt ? A name and description would help massively for viewers like me. I’m almost finished reading the book “Heavier Than Heaven”
Interesting. Buzz goes into a lot more detail about why MOH is a complete lie. It’s nice to see someone else say the same, even when it’s more diplomatic. Kudos bruv
Interesting what this man is saying about that he wasn't a depresing person (many people who knew him in that time says the same thing). Even Dave Grohl said that Nirvana wasn't a obscure Joy Division trip. BUT i think he was a very sensible soul, and when he met heroin over the years he got really fucked up and the quick rise to fame left him even more insightful and conflictuated. In the case of "Montage of Heck", i think it's shows or remarks the dark and tormented side of him, it's very intrusive. "About a Son" is the best documentary of Kurt i think, i love it. "About a son" has a very sensible aproach to Kurt's life and feelings. By the way, i don´t count the fucking conspiracy crap documentaries and Tom Grant's morbid shit.
I had a problem with the conspiracy theories too until I saw El Duce's video where he admits that Courtney Love offered him $50,000 to "off her old man". He said Kurt ended up dead a couple of months later and he knew Courtney had gotten someone to do it. He seemed 100% sincere when he said it and I see no reason why he would lie about that. Then days after he let a name slip he died in an "accident", run over by a train.
I am a huge Nirvana fan and all my thought over the yrs on Cobains death is that no one will ever ever know what happened in the Greenhouse that day. Especially as many years has gone since the tragedy. Surely something somewhere would have leaked but has not. A Cobain documentary I saw (Dylan) I think is his name one of Kurts close friends said that if someone had killed him that they would have been killed. I mean he was Kurt Cobain and he didn't want to quit using dope I saw doc. Put Courteney on top that. He just f'cd up. It's sad.
And u know whats crazy, is that the dates El Duce says that Courtney came to visit him, was at the record store coincide exactly when Courtney was in town with Kurt, when Nirvana was playing the Forum, December 30th, 1993 is the date...
Yeah but Dave grohl also said that they never celebrated anything as a band, like after performing a show, whereas he was doing such things with the foo fighters, just enjoying the moment.Courtney Love also said that Kurt never dared to enjoy or celebrate his fame. One time they had to rent a limo (only car available in town) she said he had the time of his life but she didnt know why he never tried to do that more often. I guess he expressed that attitude in the song All apologies.
To be honest Kurt Cobain always seems like a jerk. He just seemed like a jaded lost person who talked crap and said God is gay and all kinds of crazy stuff. Never liked him or cared for him or his weirdo music. INXS is a much better band and Michael hutchence was a much better person than Kurt deserves more.
Hi John! Hope you're doing well! Just wondering if you're seeoyall this nonsense with kurts autopsy report? People are so incredibly greedy and under developed!
Hey brother, im not sure if you remember me. We had briefly emailed about you giving me an interview for s Literary magazine im doing. I'm finally in s position to do it. Could you please either enail at the enail address I used, or could you please give me your email again? Thank you again for this.
My feeling is Kurt was a genuine person in a profession full of fakers. If you put the music aside most people just get a feeling about another person, they can feel how someone is without really knowing them
Awesome stories man, very interesting!! I got a question for you: Did kurt/chris ever contemplate you drumming for Nirvana? Did you ever want to play drums for them? Also I would love to see those early Melvins pictures sometime!! Cheers!!
if you look at the recent videos I did upload those pictures also they asked me to play in the band early on but I was already in another very serious band. I did try out later on in 1990. I will tell that story soon
I don't even know what I can say that would even begin to describe how Kurt and Nirvana changed me and my life forever. During 1993 I was 13, my friend has just introduced me to the album In Utero. It blew my mind. Then I saw them on SNL, with Charles Barkley. Back when SNL was good. I was like, wow! These are those guys! Imagine being a thirteen year old kid, seeing this. It totally did it for me. Then as quickly as he entered my life, he was gone. I was and still am devastated over what happened, and even now I can't speculate, but I have a strange feeling, we all know what truly happened. Bless you and everyone who knew Kurt, he is a legend, and he will be immortalized forever. He made that much of an impact; on music, on art, on poetry, on the human soul. Please keep doing these videos, so future generations can know who he was, and how he changed the world forever.
Thank you very much for your videos. It means a lot to us. It is really rare to find someone who speaks about the "normal" Kurt. Incase you see this message: Were you able to spend time with them while they became big? After the release of Nevermind? Any stories aboit that time? Whats about the stories about his stomach pain? Is there something real about it?
@@JohnPurkey1 Did Kurt ever tell you stories about me. I'm the beer man. The guy with the Hannen Alt beer. Or so he refered to me as. otherwise known as the lead singer of the band the magic carpet riders. The guy that broke his arm, (me) while slamming at the Community world theater while he was playing. (And yes, he once told me he had horrible intestinal problems, debilitating sometimes. He asked me if I might know about something that might help. I didn't know anything about that subject then. He was already smarter than me on that subject.
Oh cool! I'd love to see The Melvins pics! I saw them a couple of years ago at The Cats Cradle in Carborro NC They just keep getting better and better!
I have the feeling that under the pressure of interviews and stuff he just cracked, along with his glamorised sense of the morbid and edgy wrapped up in an "image" he both flaunted and hated, he just came off as rude. Social stuff can be very overwhelming for ADHD/ anxiety people etc etc. It's a hard habit to crack but sometimes it's easier to put up a wall and have people not like you rather than putting yourself out there.
Enigmas Of The Universe What? He hated the Jag-Stang. It took him forever to even use it live. He despised it at first and gave them a ton of things to fix, but then he passed away and they just released it as is to cash in. But Kurt wanted to change multiple things because he didn't like it at all. The Mustang and Jaguar were his favs, with JB humbuckers in the bridge.
Do you know anything about his stomach pain? I have the same stomach pain he described. Burning nauseous pains and i was diagnosed with gastritis because my stomach lining was red and inflamed along with IBS. I got on pain killers just to stop the pain for a little while. I cant even keep food down. If you know if he found out the real problem please let me know i refuse to live like this
Loltia Kurt said in an interview I saw awhile back that the docs finally figured out that his stomach pain was coming from nerve pain due to his scoliosis and that the docs was able to fix it and he no longer had stomach problems.
Like your sense of humour. Actually this is my son's account and name. It's Eugene in English. And my name is Yelena or Helen. Nice to meet you from Belarus.😀 (It's in Europe).
Sorry, just found this, I have no context, not trying to disrespectful or whatever, but how do we know this guy is legit? Like, no pictures, no proof, just stories...really sorry, but in the age of the internet there’s not a lot you can just BELIEVE to be true
Actually there is. My name is John Purkey. I have quite a few stories a book. Ive been interviewed for two books. Heavier then heaven and i found my friends.
how did you first become friends with him? was he a fan of your band, noxious fumes? also something I always wanted to know- we never hear, see or read anything about his dad. I know they were on bad terms for most of his life, but you hear more from Wendy than you do Donald. Any thoughts on that?
I do talk about it in detail in a video about 3 months ago. I met Kurt at the Community world theater at a skid row show. I did not know his parents. I talked to his mom once to get directions in Aberdeen.
Hi, can you tell me which authors Kurt liked? I have read a little about this subject, and I know he read Perfume by Suskind which inspired Scentless Apprentice.
His interviews etc were basically more or less a mockery, in that they were making a mockery or,apeople wanting to interview him.Why?Of,the whole pop culture and fantasy type bullshit etc. Just they were not reality they were mocking people that could believe that illusion was a real person,the illusion that every "rock star" & big time athlete etc are instructed to carefully cultivate etc.Lastly,i beg every ones pardon,forgive me,& I know its a tough one to not take the wrong way, but he was a loser from jump street.I beg your pardon so sorry to say it.I mean, I suppose I'm a loser ,so yeah.Take it however you want to more power to you.
Do you think kurt really took his own life ?? I mean theres all these theories, I seriously dont think courtney had anything to do with it, but theres stories that he overdosed, and big drug dealers made it look like a cover up, and my next question is, did you hang out with him and courtney together and if so were they happy together?
Uh he wasnt suffering, u are one of a very few who believe he committed suicide. Fyi he didnt he was murdered. Theres one person who said he was suicidal. He was rufied in Rome it was not a failed attempt at anything.
That's gotta be so frustrating not having any of the photos of you and Kurt that you know are out there someplace. (Please excuse my purposely horrible but funny analogy) It's like pieces of the Roswell crash, where you know they actually exists, many credible people witnessed it, but it's hidden away somewhere under lock and key out of public reach, so you have no way to access them for documented verification, Lol! Seriously tho, most young people these days don't realize that in those days photos were a rare commodity. Its taken for granted nowadays with the fact everyone has smartphones that can be used to capture digital images and video whenever you want & wherever you may be. Back then, who the hell carried cameras around unless you had a cheap disposable 110 Kodak film camera or you were a professional photographer with your 35MM and going to a particular event?! I hope Tracy can dig some photos up for you! Thanks again for sharing these awesome stories!
I never knew him, but from the interviews I've seen and read I cannot believe that he was suicidal. He seemed to have huge distance to troubles and was rather sarcastic about it not like depressed. I hope one day we find out what really happened there. I am not blaming anyone, because I don't have any rights to do it, I just have very strong feeling that something really wrong and very bad happened there and because of that he is misjudging now, what is very unfair.
Pretty awesome man!.. Love this sort of stuff and I thank you for sharing with us. Subbing and checking some more vids of yours out man!. Cheers and happy new Year!.
I like the interviews where he actually gives his opinions on guitars he likes, owns, built (with Krist and Dave), and smashed. Also a couple of the last interviews are interesting...German TV was decent. Mustangs were his favourite. They’re great, I have a 1966 daphne blue Mustang. He had good taste in guitars. I remember the first Mustang I ever saw was one of his and from that point on it was Mustangs, Jaguars, and Jazzmasters (he never had a Jazzmaster) that I was interested in; still am to this day 25+ years later. Bleach got me into those guys...still have an original t shirt of it....it’s fucked now though. ;) Bleach, Incesticide, and other B sides are the best material they done in my opinion.
i envy the fact you saw the very early gigs!, I had a ticket for the last tour but never got to go. the tapes you posted are cool, and much appreciated. thanks a lot, mate.
Thanks for all these vids theyre really interesting. Question though, how accurate is the HBO documentary Montage of Heck and which docs/biographies are the most helpful for learning more about Nirvana/Kurt?
Thank you dude for making me feel a little closer to him. He means so much to me, and now you do too man. Thanks so much for these again.
@deadvoguestar Way to be an asshole, why don’t you just let people enjoy things? Besides, how would you know again? Were you personally his friend?
I saw an interview where Kurt said his personality was bits and pieces of different people he had put together, spiritually speaking that's quite an elevated quality or ability..
His music was also bits and pieces of other songs. He had a gift with that
That's interesting. What interview is it? Is it a video?
Женя Гвоздовский i saw it in the montage of heck documentary it was in one of his notes from his journal
Isn’t that all of us though? We pick up different traits from different people
That's very #adhd and #autistic ...Kurt was ❤ neurodivergent❤ & diagnosed ADHD in childhood
He also expressed feeling like an alien - a neurodivergent perspective of what it feels like to be amongst, primarily neurotypical people.
Less or no eye contact #autism shy and awkward around others
#neurodivergent Spinning in his chair during unplugged #adhd vulnerable to abuse #adhd
Wish Kurt lived today to connect with his other aliens.
#justiceforkurt
He seemed so wise even in his mid 20's
I dont think he was wise but if he lived longer and how the world changes from then to now yeah he would be wiser than the average
Well, maybe he could've been depressed without showing it. Thats pretty common upon depressed people, Kurt also seemed way more positive in interviews before "Nirvanamania" hit.
I think there are 2 main influences: drugs and Courtney. Both go hand in hand with each other. So it's difficult to tell how Kurt would have coped with fame without all this shit going on. While it's debatable if Courtney introduced him to heroin addiction or vice versa, you can definitely say that Courtney introduced him to a lot of other chemical drugs like Rohypnol and Valium and I don't know what other pills...just consider that one time in 93 when she "saved" his life: she gave him a lot of several pills. She always reminded of this girl of Cheech & Chong that has a whole set of pills in her bag and is like "you need this for that and blablabla..." Before Courtney, Kurt was into the classical drugs: weed/pot, acid, speed and didn't like coke.
Hey! where can i find you're profile picture?
Nazareno Rodriguez
your profile pictures _kool_
i think Kurt maybe was just Kurt, a kind of down to earth, yet a little bit eccentric kind of guy. And over time he got a real bird's eye view of fame, the music biz, haute couture, hollywood, etc. and came to despise it all. And of course the poor guy also got to see, over time, how dialed into the very things he despised, his new wife was. And how she loved all the stuff that he couldn't stand. Yes im sure thats a depressing realization. But didnt Courtney say he purchased 2 airline tickets for flights out of Seattle? Why would he do that if he was just going to go home, and commit suicide?
He wanted the music to be big but didn't want attention on his personal life because of the addictions and family problems. He's friendly when people do not bring up those issues. He was obviously had narcissistic disorders but his fatigue and laziness is probably from round worms or another parasite. Parasites will make people kill themselves.
These are the perspectives that needed to be cemented as they seem to me to be very genuine and unedited if you know what I mean. I feel like after 25 years I have my image of Kurt and feel like I know him in my own way, which happens with the artists that impact our lives in very real and major ways. I can imagine actually having an old bond with someone like him and watching the world create this version of them that might not be correct, so I really respect your sharing that personal part of yr life with us (however much, or little you choose.) I know that personally, if you asked 5 of my closest friends to tell you what I'm like, you will get 5 different versions back, with everybody feeling that they are right, and they would because we're different around different people, especially at different ages. One thing that's true though is that there will always be common traits that everyone will know and those are the truest parts of ourselves. From what I've heard Kurt was a kind, and complicated man with a troubled soul. He did so much in the little time he was here, and he made an enormous impact. I'm glad you two crossed paths on this weird journey and that he made one on you as well. Thank you again.
Hey man could I interview you concerning Kurt Cobain? I am attempting circulate my first Edition of a totally DIY Literary Magazine. Your interview would take the intensity of the First Edition of what I hope to re capture the ",poetical sentiment & composition"
His lyrics got me into reading and writing poetry. : )
Same here actually
It made me write lyrics lol
Jim Morrison inspired me to read and write poetry
@@Maxx-ib6nrSame.
And to play.
And playing made me focus on poetry and prosa poems. I had read since 6yo but just prosa.
Playing made me to play records (DJ), mix & remix, release a music and all those affected to me that I started to write and paint oil & acrylic canvases.
Huh.
There was more to kurt than depression and rock music
Thanks for another great video....I've ALWAYS tried telling people to really listen to Kurt's lyrics...they tell a LOT!! Also, SOME interviews his genuine sincerity comes through but others unfortunately have been edited out.
Patti Todd I did not know Layne. I think he was reaching for fame. Kurt wasn't that way.
Cobain: MOH... I hated that movie even more than I expected.. they sold it as an indebt and closer look at Kurt but just went with his image of the tortured poor artist who was mentally 200 years old when he was 25. Lots of beautiful art direction and stuff.. but complete shit as a documentary!
Most of the interviews were real. Courtney knew the rock star Kurt that she idolized. That is a big problem right there. Kurt probably got really tired of her shit at about a year and a half in. He wanted out. Point being....the second half of the movie was a mess.
You know you're right!!! (Great comment , always thought that's how he felt!!)
the Observer Interesting that you mention how she knew the "rock star" Kurt. She always came across as an opportunistic groupie to me. She probably grew tired of him as well as she realized he was not interested in the glitz and glamour.
That's what I hated about that movie. I never could really understand happened there in early 94. I expected to learn something that would make me comprehend the situation at least a tiny little bit more. Even my girlfriend, who has no interest in Nirvana & everything that has to with idolizing stardom, told me that she thought Courtney came away much too good in this documentary.
Xavier Roberts Frances didn't want that scene included. www.independent.ie/entertainment/music/frances-bean-cobain-i-feel-like-i-have-a-deep-spiritual-understanding-that-most-people-probably-dont-37165902.html
Did you ever bump into Layne Staley?
no I never met him
Thanks so much for sharing your experiences with Kurt. I just found your channel and I’m so happy.
I just learned of your channel. Wow...these stories are amazing for big fans like us. Thank you so much for uploading these. I’m racking my brain for a good question to ask you.
Love your videos man, so great. Keep them coming. Would love to hear more about Kurt around 1994. Theres so much mystery surrounding it. For example rom the early days to Dec 93 did you notice any changes due to drug use? Did you see him doing it? For someone they say was so deep in heroin by 94 to me he never really looked like it in pictures etc. Yet I have heard many overdose stories, but he always seems functioning? Anyway, thanks man, great stories.
He looked pretty rough in the aneurysm live video
Which video is that?
Thanks, that's what I wanted to hear in the MOH movie...and that it finished
He what ? Ever since around ´Nevermind` came out I can´t seem to watch a video where Kurt ISN´T 100% under the influence of either an opiate or an opioid ( latter so he could function and look ´normal` before his opiate naive fans ).
He could hardly stand during the recording sessions of ´Houdini` according to Buzz , a childhood friend who´s got every reason to ´ridicule` him for having let himself be pushed around by wife/management/Geffen execs to become everything he was against earlier on .
Learn to accept things : By the time Kurt vanished he was no different from any street junkie at a personal level . Same wave length ... there was just the mansion, the abusive wife ,and pressures he hardly could have antecipated, mounting up .
Sorry if that sounds harsh , but whoever knew him knows this is fact , no point in attempting to sugarcoat any of it. ´Needles, needles, keep´em coming !!!!` ( With a box of used needles just against the wall - I´ve only seen that in hardcore junkies´s crack houses, who eventually turn into pin cushions from nearly constant usage ... yeah, ´fake news` that ! )
Hello the Observer, Kurt Cobain was highly intelligent, like before his time. Great video.
You got any Green River or Mudhoney stuff?
I have a similar way and connection to him in a way. I'm very antisocial and I have so many things pinned up inside me. I am always willing to be an open person with anybody i'd call a friend these days. I really don't give a fuck what people think or say about me. I always feel people dont appreciate my well being. And that shit makes me sad. Its hard for me to make friends. Kurt, in my opinion is one of the nicest guys you could meet. I never met him or was around to, but I felt that he was a friendly guy, and I compare personal things that i have with Kurt. I just hope one day that this music career I chose is good enough for me to get out there and make friends to form a band. I just want to do something...
There is someone in your hallway
Dude I'm so happy to find someone who can help me answer my million Nirvana Q & A . Also Thank you for videos : ) So if I may " If Kurt was drinking alcohol , What was his favorite ? " and " Did you ever get Kurt to laugh ? If so what humor did he enjoy ?" Again Thank you for your time .
Hey 'ramble' all you need to man, as always fucking great to hear your personal perspectives and stories, so thanks so much again, yeah I was one of those holding out hope for 'Montage of Heck' being this great tribute to Kurt and finally some kind of well crafted and thought out kind of visual bio-pic but had some fears knowing Courtney was producing this, I agree the first part was great, the animation and story telling was excellent but unfortunately ended up in the later part of the film really painting this narrow negative false picture of Kurt it was really offensive to me and put me off the film, which is a shame because I liked some of Brett Morgans earlier films, but I guess Courtney needs to keep everyone believing Kurt was this helpless junky etc, would like to hear your views on what happened to Kurt in light of Tom Grants 'Soaked in Bleach'? I'm sure you have something to share on this one day, thanks again.
Wow good perspective there! Yes I do want to do a video how I feel about soaked in bleach and my angle
Hi, the observer. Great videos and really appreciate your input and insight regarding your memories and relationship with Kurt. I too would be interested to hear how you feel about the theory that Courtney had Kurt killed because he was planning on leaving her and the music business.
That was going to be my question as well. I remember hearing Tom Grant on a radio show when I was about 14 years old (in 1995). I only wish more people took him seriously way back then. I would LOVE to hear what your opinions are on Courtney and the whole situation. Thanks so much for your videos! I could listen to you "ramble" for hours
It felt like she was saying "well, IF I DID IT, here's why I would have wanted to..."
Man I love your videos so much. I’ve been a fan of nirvana for a long time and was lucky enough to have grown up during “their” time. I was also a big fan of opiates for many years but I am clean now. Coming from an opiate addict that has been through it all I have always felt a close connection to Kurt. The depression that comes along with addiction is definitely real, it changes you in a way that is indescribable and ruins every aspect of your life. I feel like even tho I am clean now I may never be the same again and it sucks. I feel like the same thing kinda happened with Kurt and it makes me so sad. Even to this day though he is such an inspiration to me and hearing these stories about you and him sharing time and hanging out really makes me happy. Thanks so much man and please keep the stories coming! I’m sure that I’m only one of many that enjoys hearing your perspective on someone that was so special. Take care my dude
Thanks a lot for these. Your videos are gold for fanatics like me. Please please keep uploading.
Bobby Beren same here.... 😁
Absolutely.....same here, as well!!!
Hey, thank you about these videos and the music -of course.
I appreciate it/that/those/xxx all.
And what about this Cali guy? He just split? That's weird...very weird. It's quite ovisy shit was not how it looked. Anyone could tell Kurt had a good soul. I love doing my tribute band. I love singing his music for his fans. I think he would be pleased.
Thank you. You seem sweet and sincere.
WOw, i love your description of Kurt. Very comforting, left me wistful, and he appears to be pretty much as i imagined in my minds eye! Stumbled upon an interview about a weekend ago. Are you familiar with the interview in which Kurt shares a little bit about his Cobain Coburn heritage? Well there aren't that many Coburns out there either. I am one.
Thank you for all of your videos! These are the questions I've always asked since I first got Bleach for my 5th birthday (My parents are both fans of him/Nirvana). I was born in 96 two years after his suicide and just hearing your perspective on his attitude and perspective on life truly helps me as a fan of him and Nirvana. Truly an inspirational man, and personally I think you are too for having the courage to expose these songs because he and Nirvana as a whole truly inspired the current generation of rock we have nowadays
So you’re answering me in this vid haha
Thanks, again. I’m fucking grateful. And it’s nice knows that you’ve collaborated for the movie.. also thanks for it.
Do you have any memory of Kurt complaining about his stomach?
yes, he did! I will make a video about that
the Observer so was it a persistent stomach ulcer that wouldn't heal? Where the hell was the proper diagnosis (was there one?) from his doctor/s and how come it wasn't remedied properly? I mean how on earth did he decide between not obtaining proper medical remedy versus him thinking something like "ah well fuck it, I'll do heroin"? I know I sound cynical putting it like that but I can't help it. If only it didn't go that way. :-(
Buzz of the Melvins sez the stomach stuff was bullshit, and he leaned on that to legitimatize his habit.
www.talkhouse.com/buzz-osborne-the-melvins-talks/
Buzz is sour
lineriderman7 He's bitter and chub
Not to be disrespectful but how did you know Kurt? I have only seen you on TH-cam I don’t even know your name or connection. Thanx
Go back about a year ago and i go into hours of detail. I really cant sum it up in an email.
What bands did you guys listen to? I just don't see you guys at that time listening to the bay city rollers😂. Yeah I'm from the same era 🍻. And thank you for the videos! My favorite memory is seeing Nirvana for the first time on Saturday Night Live and my wife who was my girlfriend at that time, looked at me and said " You like them?" and I said "Hell yeah they rock!" Commercial music sucked back then. And I waited months before Nevermind hit the store shelves before I could listen to the whole album. How times have changed.
Thank you so much for sharing your memories and experiences with us, man.
It really means alot...I wish there were more people like you.
Just Remember this. When your in front of a camera you act different. Also no offence to Cobain, it was a rock star act.......The whole thing was imo a way to sell an image almost. I have a friend years ago, whos older sister met Cobain 5 or 6x, they had teas together and chilled. It was really cool to hear her stories......the thing about those stories was, He was a friendly , funny dude!
I am not a very funny person in fact a lot of the time back when I was 19 I was very serious about what I did. I do remember Kurt with quick humor. There really was not a lot of laughing in our conversations. We were both serious people. Different people bring out different things in people if you know what I mean
the Observer some definitely do. She prolly wouldn't call him the funniest person ever but he was in a mood that day apperently. Making some jokes etc. I personally won't peg him as a joker from all the videos I've seen, but it seems like he had a bit of a humorist side to him from time to time....
Thanks for sharing this. God bless and reward you for telling the truth.
Opiates in general , can drive a person to suicide. From personal experience
I believe everything you say butt, the drugs changed him.
From experience stay off the hard stuff.
I would say it only took a year of drugs and evil friends.
Stay with loving people.
Thank you for new video, u deserve more views and subscribes. I have one question to you. What you think why people idolize kurt? What was secret of his charisma? He passed away long time ago, but today much people idolize him, they love his personality, his clothes, his hair and everything about him. How he was so charismatic and so mystical? (I am big fan of him.)
Yes he was infectious. There is a real honesty with Kurt and at a young age. I was way more naive. He was very in tune with what is real. I think everyone gets so lost in their heads they forget to really look and listen right in front of them. I think Kurt had that natural ability to see things in a very real perspective.
Thanks for reply. Maybe I am annoying but I have one more question. Do you think he was a good guitar player? Was he practicing a lot at home?
I think he really had his own style and he was amazing for that. Again that is one thing Kurt was very original without trying to be. I think he played a lot on his own.
Thank you. Continue this kind of videos about kurt please. There is many things to talk about him (what songs he liked, who inspired him and etc.)
I have never heard that before. Very cool. Do you have a source re Chuck? Not asking to be a dick, just would like to source it.
I just saw the Melvins last year and was right in front with my wife. We both didn't know their music very well, but we both loved it. (seriously, do yourself a favor and see them live. You'll really enjoy it even if you don't know their music. They're experts at putting on a show.)
For some reason, being 2 feet away from a band Kurt used to worship, a bunch of guys who knew Kurt so well and played in bands with them (including Dale who was in Nirvana), I had a strange epiphany, that all the stuff I thought I knew about Kurt was just a bunch of BS. It was like at that moment I realized Kurt was just a dude, just like these guys. All the magic there was about him can only be found on the records. And as a man, he was no different from anyone else. Sure, he was of higher than average intelligence. But other than that, I just came to realize that if he were still alive and I had the chance to meet him, aside from initially being starstruck, I'd be a bit disappointed that he didn't radiate angelic glory like I expected.
Revealing. Validating. Honest. Didn't know him, but thanks for sharing. Maybe Tracy will see this and share some photos.
Tank you for the storys,kurt is my idol since 2002 i love him tanks for sharing this memories
Ricardo k20 Tanks you Ricardo. Tanks for all your comments. Tanks again.
@@nymets9559 lmaoo
I swear each of your vids I watch keep getting better and more introspective, the way you explain things is very thorough and you just seem like an awesome guy
I wish I had met Kurt his birthday is the day before mine same year, similarities in some ways growing up( except I wish my parents had divorced for they were a match made in hell) always cherish your memories of Kurt good video :-)
This just came up In my recommended. Forgive me but who is this guy? There’s nothing in the description and no name other than a general bland channel name. What’s his name and relationship to Kurt ? A name and description would help massively for viewers like me. I’m almost finished reading the book “Heavier Than Heaven”
Interesting. Buzz goes into a lot more detail about why MOH is a complete lie. It’s nice to see someone else say the same, even when it’s more diplomatic. Kudos bruv
What a treasure you had with knowing Kurt. Any everlasting memories you remember about Kurt any convos/funny things between you 2?
Interesting what this man is saying about that he wasn't a depresing person (many people who knew him in that time says the same thing). Even Dave Grohl said that Nirvana wasn't a obscure Joy Division trip. BUT i think he was a very sensible soul, and when he met heroin over the years he got really fucked up and the quick rise to fame left him even more insightful and conflictuated. In the case of "Montage of Heck", i think it's shows or remarks the dark and tormented side of him, it's very intrusive. "About a Son" is the best documentary of Kurt i think, i love it. "About a son" has a very sensible aproach to Kurt's life and feelings. By the way, i don´t count the fucking conspiracy crap documentaries and Tom Grant's morbid shit.
I had a problem with the conspiracy theories too until I saw El Duce's video where he admits that Courtney Love offered him $50,000 to "off her old man". He said Kurt ended up dead a couple of months later and he knew Courtney had gotten someone to do it. He seemed 100% sincere when he said it and I see no reason why he would lie about that. Then days after he let a name slip he died in an "accident", run over by a train.
Heroin addiction causes depression
I am a huge Nirvana fan and all my thought over the yrs on Cobains death is that no one will ever ever know what happened in the Greenhouse that day. Especially as many years has gone since the tragedy. Surely something somewhere would have leaked but has not. A Cobain documentary I saw (Dylan) I think is his name one of Kurts close friends said that if someone had killed him that they would have been killed. I mean he was Kurt Cobain and he didn't want to quit using dope I saw doc. Put Courteney on top that. He just f'cd up. It's sad.
And u know whats crazy, is that the dates El Duce says that Courtney came to visit him, was at the record store coincide exactly when Courtney was in town with Kurt, when Nirvana was playing the Forum, December 30th, 1993 is the date...
Yeah but Dave grohl also said that they never celebrated anything as a band, like after performing a show, whereas he was doing such things with the foo fighters, just enjoying the moment.Courtney Love also said that Kurt never dared to enjoy or celebrate his fame. One time they had to rent a limo (only car available in town) she said he had the time of his life but she didnt know why he never tried to do that more often. I guess he expressed that attitude in the song All apologies.
To be honest Kurt Cobain always seems like a jerk. He just seemed like a jaded lost person who talked crap and said God is gay and all kinds of crazy stuff. Never liked him or cared for him or his weirdo music. INXS is a much better band and Michael hutchence was a much better person than Kurt deserves more.
Hi John! Hope you're doing well! Just wondering if you're seeoyall this nonsense with kurts autopsy report? People are so incredibly greedy and under developed!
Hey brother, im not sure if you remember me. We had briefly emailed about you giving me an interview for s Literary magazine im doing. I'm finally in s position to do it. Could you please either enail at the enail address I used, or could you please give me your email again? Thank you again for this.
I love your videos ! everything you tell is interesting.
My feeling is Kurt was a genuine person in a profession full of fakers. If you put the music aside most people just get a feeling about another person, they can feel how someone is without really knowing them
Awesome stories man, very interesting!! I got a question for you: Did kurt/chris ever contemplate you drumming for Nirvana? Did you ever want to play drums for them? Also I would love to see those early Melvins pictures sometime!! Cheers!!
if you look at the recent videos I did upload those pictures also they asked me to play in the band early on but I was already in another very serious band. I did try out later on in 1990. I will tell that story soon
I tell that story in the video how I met Kurt and Krist
I don't even know what I can say that would even begin to describe how Kurt and Nirvana changed me and my life forever. During 1993 I was 13, my friend has just introduced me to the album In Utero. It blew my mind. Then I saw them on SNL, with Charles Barkley. Back when SNL was good. I was like, wow! These are those guys! Imagine being a thirteen year old kid, seeing this. It totally did it for me. Then as quickly as he entered my life, he was gone. I was and still am devastated over what happened, and even now I can't speculate, but I have a strange feeling, we all know what truly happened. Bless you and everyone who knew Kurt, he is a legend, and he will be immortalized forever. He made that much of an impact; on music, on art, on poetry, on the human soul. Please keep doing these videos, so future generations can know who he was, and how he changed the world forever.
Thank you very much for your videos. It means a lot to us. It is really rare to find someone who speaks about the "normal" Kurt. Incase you see this message: Were you able to spend time with them while they became big? After the release of Nevermind? Any stories aboit that time? Whats about the stories about his stomach pain? Is there something real about it?
Yeah! I am reading all of the messages unless I get too many and it gets out of hand. Good questions there I will make a video
@@JohnPurkey1 Did Kurt ever tell you stories about me. I'm the beer man. The guy with the Hannen Alt beer. Or so he refered to me as. otherwise known as the lead singer of the band the magic carpet riders. The guy that broke his arm, (me) while slamming at the Community world theater while he was playing. (And yes, he once told me he had horrible intestinal problems, debilitating sometimes. He asked me if I might know about something that might help. I didn't know anything about that subject then. He was already smarter than me on that subject.
also, do think Kurt and Layne Staley were similar kinds of ppl?
pisces people are very mysterious
you just can't figure them out
Hey not to be weird or anything, but do you still play music?
What do you think Kurt would say about today's music?
Oh cool! I'd love to see The Melvins pics!
I saw them a couple of years ago at The Cats Cradle in Carborro NC
They just keep getting better and better!
@the observer do you know why kurt and tracy broke up?
I feel like he was holding back aloooott because he didn't want to step on any toes. Understandably so.
How do you know Cobain
I have the feeling that under the pressure of interviews and stuff he just cracked, along with his glamorised sense of the morbid and edgy wrapped up in an "image" he both flaunted and hated, he just came off as rude. Social stuff can be very overwhelming for ADHD/ anxiety people etc etc. It's a hard habit to crack but sometimes it's easier to put up a wall and have people not like you rather than putting yourself out there.
Do you know which guitar he favoured? Uni vox hi flyer/ mustang?
I do not
Enigmas Of The Universe What? He hated the Jag-Stang. It took him forever to even use it live. He despised it at first and gave them a ton of things to fix, but then he passed away and they just released it as is to cash in. But Kurt wanted to change multiple things because he didn't like it at all. The Mustang and Jaguar were his favs, with JB humbuckers in the bridge.
Do you know anything about his stomach pain? I have the same stomach pain he described. Burning nauseous pains and i was diagnosed with gastritis because my stomach lining was red and inflamed along with IBS. I got on pain killers just to stop the pain for a little while. I cant even keep food down. If you know if he found out the real problem please let me know i refuse to live like this
Loltia Kurt said in an interview I saw awhile back that the docs finally figured out that his stomach pain was coming from nerve pain due to his scoliosis and that the docs was able to fix it and he no longer had stomach problems.
The picture of Kurt you were trying to draw with your words is not enough for me.😞
Kind of the same as me trying to pronounce your name in twenty first century broken English.
Like your sense of humour. Actually this is my son's account and name. It's Eugene in English. And my name is Yelena or Helen. Nice to meet you from Belarus.😀 (It's in Europe).
Thank you for taking the time to answer this.
Sorry, just found this, I have no context, not trying to disrespectful or whatever, but how do we know this guy is legit? Like, no pictures, no proof, just stories...really sorry, but in the age of the internet there’s not a lot you can just BELIEVE to be true
Actually there is. My name is John Purkey. I have quite a few stories a book. Ive been interviewed for two books. Heavier then heaven and i found my friends.
@@JohnPurkey1 okay cool, I'll check em out :)
how did you first become friends with him? was he a fan of your band, noxious fumes? also something I always wanted to know- we never hear, see or read anything about his dad. I know they were on bad terms for most of his life, but you hear more from Wendy than you do Donald. Any thoughts on that?
I do talk about it in detail in a video about 3 months ago. I met Kurt at the Community world theater at a skid row show. I did not know his parents. I talked to his mom once to get directions in Aberdeen.
Did he have autism
thank you for sharing this!
uh r u krist?
This is just some bloke they (The Observer) found in a pub - offered him a few squid 'pretend y'knew Kurt' etc....and here we are... April Fooled !!!
Kurt was good. Kurt was my friend. I have no proof. This is the extent of this guy's vocabulary. That's great dude. You were a Melvin "Cling-on."
Hi, can you tell me which authors Kurt liked? I have read a little about this subject, and I know he read Perfume by Suskind which inspired Scentless Apprentice.
His interviews etc were basically more or less a mockery, in that they were making a mockery or,apeople wanting to interview him.Why?Of,the whole pop culture and fantasy type bullshit etc. Just they were not reality they were mocking people that could believe that illusion was a real person,the illusion that every "rock star" & big time athlete etc are instructed to carefully cultivate etc.Lastly,i beg every ones pardon,forgive me,& I know its a tough one to not take the wrong way, but he was a loser from jump street.I beg your pardon so sorry to say it.I mean, I suppose I'm a loser ,so yeah.Take it however you want to more power to you.
Did Kurt ever frustrate you or could he be frustrating? Was there anything about him that ever caught you by surprise?
no, I never felt that from him.
Do you think kurt really took his own life ?? I mean theres all these theories, I seriously dont think courtney had anything to do with it, but theres stories that he overdosed, and big drug dealers made it look like a cover up, and my next question is, did you hang out with him and courtney together and if so were they happy together?
Sounds pretty obvious you didnt know him in his last 2 years of life lol Newsflash people change.
The Legend meaning Everett True? Any chance I could know your name? Any chance I've read about you in a book or heard your name somewhere?
Maybe you weren’t emotionally intuitive enough to tell he was suffering at the time of your interactions with him.
i agree with this take.......
good point
Not cool bro lol
Uh he wasnt suffering, u are one of a very few who believe he committed suicide. Fyi he didnt he was murdered. Theres one person who said he was suicidal. He was rufied in Rome it was not a failed attempt at anything.
That's gotta be so frustrating not having any of the photos of you and Kurt that you know are out there someplace. (Please excuse my purposely horrible but funny analogy) It's like pieces of the Roswell crash, where you know they actually exists, many credible people witnessed it, but it's hidden away somewhere under lock and key out of public reach, so you have no way to access them for documented verification, Lol! Seriously tho, most young people these days don't realize that in those days photos were a rare commodity. Its taken for granted nowadays with the fact everyone has smartphones that can be used to capture digital images and video whenever you want & wherever you may be. Back then, who the hell carried cameras around unless you had a cheap disposable 110 Kodak film camera or you were a professional photographer with your 35MM and going to a particular event?! I hope Tracy can dig some photos up for you! Thanks again for sharing these awesome stories!
I never knew him, but from the interviews I've seen and read I cannot believe that he was suicidal. He seemed to have huge distance to troubles and was rather sarcastic about it not like depressed. I hope one day we find out what really happened there. I am not blaming anyone, because I don't have any rights to do it, I just have very strong feeling that something really wrong and very bad happened there and because of that he is misjudging now, what is very unfair.
Hey, what was the picture you talked about which they displayed incorrectly of Kurt?
Pretty awesome man!.. Love this sort of stuff and I thank you for sharing with us. Subbing and checking some more vids of yours out man!. Cheers and happy new Year!.
I like the interviews where he actually gives his opinions on guitars he likes, owns, built (with Krist and Dave), and smashed. Also a couple of the last interviews are interesting...German TV was decent.
Mustangs were his favourite. They’re great, I have a 1966 daphne blue Mustang.
He had good taste in guitars. I remember the first Mustang I ever saw was one of his and from that point on it was Mustangs, Jaguars, and Jazzmasters (he never had a Jazzmaster) that I was interested in; still am to this day 25+ years later.
Bleach got me into those guys...still have an original t shirt of it....it’s fucked now though. ;) Bleach, Incesticide, and other B sides are the best material they done in my opinion.
Did he name drop any favorite bands that we don't know of?
Why did kurt cobain became an Idol for Million of Teenagers
Well that's a good question. He had a sort of charisma that was unmistakable. This would be a long answer
Where do you think Kurt would be living now if he were still here? Do you think that he still would've been still alive?
what did kurt think of pavement and tom waits? Not to compare them, but he never spoke in interviews about them.
this is part of history, in a hundred years people will be watching this i promise you.
Do you still live in WA? And do you teach music?
Anyone that can get into people’s soles is truly great ...
Thank you so much for posting these videos. I love hearing about Kurt before the fame.
How did you know Kurt and Krist?
i envy the fact you saw the very early gigs!, I had a ticket for the last tour but never got to go. the tapes you posted are cool, and much appreciated. thanks a lot, mate.
Did he go to any concerts that we don't know of?
Who do you personally should portray Kurt in a bio pic film if one was ever made one day
What matters he was a human being and yet like some of us we do make it and he didn't . Thee end.
Kurt always seemed pretty honest in most interviews, i just find it hard to believe that he wasnt but of a tortured soul
Do you believe he killed himself?..bless you
Thanks for all these vids theyre really interesting. Question though, how accurate is the HBO documentary Montage of Heck and which docs/biographies are the most helpful for learning more about Nirvana/Kurt?
Sorry I didnt finish this video before I posted this lol you kinda answered it toward the end
Nice video keep them up bro 👍
