Love being a signed up Republican and close friend of GW Bush worked closely on Cobain's demise, knowing full well that his future career would become the soundtrack to a Democrat victory. Bush was later advised by Love in 2001 on how to start a war with Afganistan and she said that the only solution would be to destroy the twin towers. All those drug addled benders and times in rehab were all just tricks. She was not loaded but just diverting attention every time a fellow rock band got too close to the mechanisms. John Lee from Feeder knew too much and so too was bumped off in 2002.

He may have deserved it? How's that?

i don't really think much of him. overrated. nirvana's first album was alright i guess, but i could never understand the adoration for them or him.

i think a more important discussion would be "WAS BOBBY FULLER MURDERED?" or what about BRIAN JONES?

kurt cobain. pfft.

Yeah so I was just wondering what everyone's thoughts are on him.
Personally, I believe that he was murdered (after watching 'Kurt and Courtney' which I really do recommend. It's a great movie) But yeah I mean I just don't think that he would have committed suicide. Even though he was fairly depressed at the time. It's just that everything doesn't add up. But hey, That's just my opinion I guess (:

* By the way, I love Nirvana! <3

Big ups to LINY!!! Anyone...?

Don't forget New York City. I'd say its garage scene is bigger than any of those others. Hell, Memphis, too, for that matter.

I got mugged in Chi-Town.  San Fran was ok-head to Austin for STUBBS, every time-order the MAJOR with as much beer as you can handle.

i've seen bigger garages in Austin, i think. everything's bigger in TEXAS!!

Welcome Joey Fuckup to the squad! He's replacing Bradx, who has gone MIA as of late, and who hasn't posted an episode since last September and hasn't responded to any of my emails, Hideout, or Facebook messages. So be it!

Depends on what sound you want man.  11's or heavier, flatwound will give you that plunky surf tone that you've heard on countless records.  Dick Dale uses flat 13's.  Rounds are brighter and have a thinner tone than flatwound. D'Addario flats are around 13 bucks, wound are about 8.  Save some dough and try 'em all-the string and gauge will find you.

I always used GHS 010.
They're cheap and turn rusting without breaking.

the documentary about him is great, too. what the hell was it called...??? oh yeah, Billy Childish Is Dead!

haha!

BACK FROM THE GRAVE... duh!

Yeah, I have got to get my hands on those!!!

It is the tyranny of distance that stopped me seeing these and many more bands.

Living in Australia we have great home grown bands, I mean I have lost count of the number of times I saw the HardOns for instance.

But so many great American and European bands never made it to our shores. :-(

Sounds fascinatin'! Really does.

Is this blocked at work?

Haha yeah I agree; I love this site (:

I had a great amp at one time... back when I was briefly learning guitar. An Ampeg Reverberocket. I loved it... but since I never got serious about playing, I decided to sell it. But that thing had GREAT sound.

And it looked like this:

Mmmm :| Everyone seems to agree. But ...
I would definitely call the clash 'punk'. I mean they're one of the first bands I think of when I hear that word. Although I do agree with you on some points. But generally all of their songs can basically be put into the category of punk music. I mean I fought the law and white riot? *insert ear orgasm
