I recently came across this photo of Nirvana with Frances Bean Cobain sitting on Kurt’s lap in front of a fireplace. I knew this fireplace looked familiar and then I finally placed it. It is in the guest house at Pachyderm Studios in Cannon Falls, Minneapolis where Nirvana recorded “In Utero” in February of 1993.
The “Aoxomoxoa” (ox-oh-mox-oh-ah) album by the Grateful Dead has always been a tough one to pronounce. The words Grateful Dead on the front of the album contain a hidden message in the form of an ambigram, that can also be read as “ATE THE ACID”.
Is this the best concert line-up ever??? Red Hot Chili Peppers “Blood Sugar Sex Magik Tour” with Nirvana and Pearl Jam as support bands. The Smashing Pumpkins were on the first leg of the tour from October 16, 1991 thru December 14, 1991 with Pearl Jam instead of Nirvana.
Kurt Cobain used this left-handed 1965 Fender Jaguar in the Nirvana’s video for “Lithium” and live on many occasision. The guitar ended up in Hole’s “Doll Parts” video a few months after Kurt’s death in 1994.
After Kurt died, Courtney gave away many of his belongings to friends and fans. She gave away Kurt’s Tom Peterson watch to Kat Bjelland of Babes In Toyland. She gave away Kurt’s Fender Jag-Stang Guitar to Peter Buck of R.E.M. She also gave Navarro this Daphne Blue Fender Musicmaster guitar that used to belong to Kurt.
Frances Bean Cobain was born August 18, 1992 and is the only daughter of Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love. Her father died when she was only 1 year and 8 months old. Here’s a photo of baby Frances with her father.
Kurt Cobain once wore this cool “Punks Not Dead” shirt that shows a cartoon duck with a mohawk flipping the bird for a Nirvana photo shoot. It also seems like Kurt wrote “Kill The Grateful Dead” right above the duck’s middle finger.
We did this story not to long ago about Kurt Cobain’s Sister Kimberly “Kim” Cobain. In doing that story, we noticed that Kurt was also a big brother to two other half-siblings as well. He has a half-brother from his father Don’s second marriage born in 1979 named Chad Cobain and also has a little sister Breanne O’Connor from his mother Wendy’s second marriage. It has been written that Kurt adored his little sister and was very close to her. There are even some photo’s of the two of them together.
In a recent interview, Courtney Love stated that in 1993, Kurt Cobain turned down an offer from Quentin Tarantino to play a small roll in the classic movie Pulp Fiction. She said, “You ever wonder why he thanked Quentin on the back of In Utero? Quentin asked him to play Eric Stoltz’s part in Pulp Fiction. You can ask Quentin that, because it’s true”
Kurt Cobain married Courtney Love on March 24, 1992 on a cliff overlooking Waikiki Beach on the island of O’aho in Hawaii. After flying in from Japan, Nirvana was in town to play two-sold out shows in Honolulu on February 21 & 22.
