Kurt Kobain Contributes to My Age


The legend lives on. Some people compare Kurt Kobain to Jim Morrison. Two long lost artists who were martyrs of their work. In all actuality, I believe that Kurt was a great musician, and music served as an excellent medium for him to express his creative side. But, I dont take on the belief of his whole being as the necessary tools for being musically expressive. He was probably a great guy. A great guy with a drug and alcohol problem. Ouch! The truth hurts.

Although his presence in the mass media was short-lived, it made a mark in what developed from a fad and into a mark in the music trends, probably as big as disco was in the seventies.

Along with all the music hoop-la brings on the next generation of teenage rebellion. Once I thought people my age were the center of the universe and I always thought that it were always to be this way. I have learned the lesson which all other adults before me has learned. That the center of the universe never focuses on a group of people forever, but for probably ten years. And, I have good ol' Kurt to thank for this lesson.
