Here we are now, entertain us

So I'm basically waiting for tomorrow, when I find out if I passed my generals, and can start doing the dissertation thing (or have to redo generals all over again). What does that mean? Mostly, I'm getting really, really drunk to numb my nervousness and listening to music on youtube. And what do I realize? Fuck, Nirvana was awesome. Now that might qualify as the most "no shit" statement of all time, but still. I get drunk and listen to people on youtube all the time, but for some reason I've zeroed in on Nirvana tonight. And they have yet to bore me, which happens never for any other band (after a few songs for anyone else, I am almost always like "ya, that is great, but lets hear someone else." not here).

But Nirvana? I can go from the fucking sublime lake of fire unplugged cover to the smells like teen spirit video (which is a fucking awesome song, but suffers the unfortunate overplayed/too-famous curse) to breed to the man who sold the world (also unplugged, because that is probably the best album ever made. I haven't even mentioned probably the best song: where did you sleep last night) and then back to, well, etc. etc and so on and so on. Makes me sad, really. I mean, I was like 12 when Cobain killed himself. But what could have been? It was like Lennon and McCartney doing a murder/suicide after Srgt Peppers.
