Don\'t you mean when Courtney shot him?
Courtney was in a drub rehab center when he shot himself(she was out when the body was found, but SHE wasn\'t even in Seatle at the time).
I don\'t even think she was beyind it. After reading a biography on him called "Heavier Than Heaven", I\'m 75% sure that he did kill himself. The guy was just so messed up all his life. Its sad because it all started with his parents getting divorced at the age of 7(?) and it all went downhill from there. I would go into detail but you should really check the book out. Great read on a great man.
And you are correct about the bands you named. Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden were the big three when it came to grunge.
man, pearl jan used to be so good, vitology rules.
Nirvana>Pearl Jam. And Ten>Vitalogy>Vs>all the crap since then.
Because Eminem is controversial, original and has a "so-what? f*ck the television" attitude, much like Nirvana once had.
I find that Eminem and even Nirvana were very television friendly, they were just very anti-everything-ish. Although in Kurt\'s case, a lot of just was just well planned out material to boost his career...
Oh, and Kurt Cobain>Eminem. No comparasion.
