Sad Kermit redux

[matgb]

I said in the edit update on my last post:

on SadKermit.Com. A site I may explore further when I've time...

Well, I have been. I've just DL'd from the audio section a few tracks, and listened to Creep. If, like me, you're an early Radiohead fan (because Pablo Honey was their best album, I don't care if they disagree), go download and listen to Creep:

Hurt (NIN)
Creep (Radiohead)
Twilight (Elliott Smith)
Rainbow Disconnection (Updated Version)
Something I Can Never Have (NIN)

Um, yeah, explicit lyrics warning, but as a paen to how special Miss Piggy is/was? so very cool. Creepy, but cool.

Not HUGELY impressed with the SICNH, but I think that's because I have a big soft spot for the original.

(because Pablo Honey was their best album, I don't care if they disagree)

Heh. Gotta love Anyone Can Play Guitar.

I wanna be Jim Morrison

Absolutely. *looks at your icon* Um, yeah, we appear to have the same thought on that as well.

It was Creep that got me to buy the CD (same day I bought In Utero, the day Cobain shot himself), but it was Standing on the beach with my guitar that sold me on them as a band.

Things went slowly downhill after that though.

* pokes you for having such a sexy brain *

I had Pablo Honey for a while before In Utero, if I recall rightly. And that's the only Nirvana album I have much time for these days.

The Bends is a pretty good album, but not as good as PH... and then, yeah, I think I got the next one on vinyl because it was a pretty limited edition and didn't buy any more after that.

I hadn't bought it for random reasons I think, just not got around to it; it was the year I tried Uni in Manchester so I did buy a lot of CDs that year (ypical student with an overdraft).

I deliberately put off buying In Utero; was sat in a ktchen in Halls with a group of people when itcame out, and I said something along the lines of probably not going to bother until he's dead, I'll buy it then. Horribly prescient.

I think at one point I nearly did, but picked up Hats off to the Insane instead; I'm sure you'll agree that's a better choice...

*has finally got around to ripping Pablo Honey to MP3*

Watch what you're doing with that finger, you, or this could get f-lock necessary :P

O_o

You realise that there are segments of Nirvana fandom even now blaming you for his death?

picked up Hats off to the Insane instead

Heeee! Yes, definitely a better choice.

* has a great deal of affection for your Therapy? fanness *

My finger isn't going anywhere it's not wanted...

Oh, there's an easy response to that one, if he hadn't shot himself he'd have become another Elvis/Eddie Vedder/up own are egotist, and they'd be dealing with awful music and having to tell people qthey used to be cool, honest...

*is still so very glad he made that random choice of t-shirt*

Ice breakers are always good, n'est ce pas?

How Very True O:-)

How can you SAY THAT? OMG KURT WOULD NEVAH HAVE SOLD OUT!!! UR MEEN!!!!

* cough *

God, typing like that actually hurts LOL.

*is still so very glad he made that random choice of t-shirt*

Well, to be fair, it wasn't JUST the T-shirt. Really, you want to watch how you lean over the bar when you're ordering things... ;)

Occurs if we ever do get horribly out of hand, we can just screen comments, but that's annoying...
