Something to consider.

I could re-post an anti-Nirvana rant from earlier, or re-word it, or I could just tell you to go here and scroll down and start reading the paragraph that starts "Fact is, there’s a perfectly logical reason..."

Some excellent quotes if you're too busy to read the whole thing:

"[Cobain] wasn’t as shy about being famous as he claimed to be; he never stopped making music videos the way Pearl Jam did, [and] he never stopped giving interviews or posing for photo shoots."

So Cap'n anti-fake is fake himself?

"Cobain’s status as a “guitar hero” even though he wasn’t actually a very good guitar player meant that suddenly any schmuck could be a guitar god."

I said something similar.

"A lot of pain and agony probably could have been avoided if he’d just kept his mouth shut like the media-shy artiste he claimed to be."

His death made him "a martyr who idiots like Rolling Stone’s David Fricke could declare was 'His generation’s John Lennon' without recognizing the basic difference between taking one’s own life and being murdered."

So yeah.

Post-Craig Review: Dr. No

 Back to the very beginning. This is a lie. "The beginning" would surely be a review of Ian Fleming's 1953 novel Casino Royale...
