As long as there is a February 20th, he will have a birthday. Now when it comes to celebrating birthdays, you have a point.

That's kind of like being the slimmest kid at fat camp, though.

This is far less prevalent. However, when a teenager says something like that, you can blame it on naivete. When an old fart says it, you can really only blame it on crotchetiness.

Yeah, it's all about perspective. I hope to be like my dad. He lived through all the great shows that came through BR. He got to help build sets for Pink Floyd. I can still send him CDs from brand new bands and he ends up liking most of it.

I think growing up in a household that really valued good and diverse music spoiled me and made me a lot more receptive. I still don't like dubstep, though.

Actually I do like a good bit of recent music, (Black Keys, Gary Clark Jr, Galactic) I've got some good suggestions from this board too.

I don't hate him for his music. I hate him for introducing Courtney Love to the world.

Hated that song.

Rock and roll "death age" and heroin took another victim with him.

He/Nirvana caused me to begin listening to Pearl Jam. So he gets a golf clap from me. Or cheers

I wonder how he would have aged as an artist? He was ALL angst it seems like. Of course he never made it past 27. His voice would have never held up to their most famous songs. Would their classics have translated well to acoustic/toned down versions?
