John Cage is awesome. And I do wish Slint would have played near me when they got back together.
I'll always respect Nirvana as the band that is partially responsible for me knowing about all the music I now love.
But I'd never rub a Cobaininite the wrong way, because when I was a long haired ripped flannel shirt over a stained t-shirt wearing teenager I was just like them and wanted a DS-1, a Jaguar, and a Marshall stack. And anyways Nirvana was a good band, even though they aren't as great as I once thought.
We're the same. Minus thinking John Cage is awesome. Dude's an asshole. 3:14 is not music no matter what anyone says. It's art, sure, but it's not {censored}ing music. Slint playing NA again would be awesome, fo sho. I'd be down to going to every show within 2 hours of here.
I still want a Jaguar though.. :embarrassed:
Nirvana is responsible for the music I listen to currently in 2 ways... One, I read Kurt's influences and checked them out and loved them and two, I was a troll on that Nirvana forum. They turned me onto good music as well as pissing me off at the same time.
