RIP, Kurt.

This always gets me in trouble, but I'll say it anyway... I think Kurt was the second best in Nirvana. Dave Grohl turned out to be a better musician/songwriter than Kurt.

I think if you look at the type of music that Dave Grohl plays, you are correct. It's good to see him back behind the drums again with Them Crooked Vultures, that's for sure.

I can see why... ;)

Kurt was Nirvana.

Proficient musicanship wasn't what Nirvana was about.

Dave may have been an overall 'better musician', but he's also better at 'generic' pop rock songwriting.

As a frontman, Dave makes a great drummer :p

Anyone who is selfish enough to take their own life ...leaves nobody but victims behind ...and therefore deserves no accolades.

I've heard it debated often was it really a suicide, or a murder?
My theory is that one day he sobered up enough to realize that he was married to Courtney Love, and then proceeded to get wasted and commit the horrible act. What do you all think?

I agree. They weren't the first band to play "grunge", but they were the band that broke us out of the "How much hairspray do I have and are my spandex too tight?" hair bands. For that alone, they should have a place in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
