R.I.P. Kurt Cobain

Well, today is the 10th anniversary of Kurt Cobains death. I think that he was killed by his wife, she didn't have the guts to do it so she hired someone else to do her dirty work. But thats just me and another few thousand fans that think that's what happened to Kurt Cobain. So we'll go with the media version that we've been fed for the past 10 years, he killed himself. But I suggest you check out this sight: http://www.justiceforkurt.com/ . I look back and I still feel as sad as I did when I found out that Kurt Cobain was dead.

But Today, I looked back at my life as well, to see how much it has changed. I realise now how much his music has effected me, it has changed me as a person, influenced the way that I live life, and how to make my decisions. All I can say is how thankful I am of his work. I don't care what people think of his music, I have loved it, always have, always will. I know the years will go by, and no matter what I will have the music with me, and I don't care what people think of it. I can only dream that one day I could write music as beautiful and painful as Kurt did. His music is one of the few things in this world that matters to me, and the awesome force that Nirvana was, even though I was too young at the time to realise and enjoy it.

But I was annoyed today listening to WFNX, they were auctioning off the gold record from Nevermind. It wasn't that, they were going to have the buyers name written on it. I feel that it is a piece of art, and no ones name should be put on it besides the artists of that record. I became disgusted and couldn't listen to any more of the marathon to raise money for the gold digger courtney love, by attempting to sell out Kurt Cobain's music.

It's weird looking back these past ten years. I now have friends, I'm in college, I have a band, and I just got initiated into Phi Beta Upsilon. That last night of pledging, I don't know how I got through it, but that has changed me as well, and I'm proud to wear the letters of IBY. The only thing missing now is a girlfriend. That I don't look for anymore. I am happy with where I am now, and I'm looking forward to what life is going to bring to me. I only look back on this day as reverence for Kurt Cobain. I only know him as a legend, and I feel that I miss him so much. I can't begin to say how thankful i am to have experienced his music.
