    Relax, if Kurt lived to see this shite he would've loved it. He insisted that Weird Al Yankovic spoof "Smells Like Teen Spirit."

    @Cam/ron: He insisted nothing. Weird Al asked him if he could do it (like he always does, though Coolio later denied it) and Kurt said it was cool, but "...it's not going to be about food, is it?"

    And, seriously? Kurt would have been cool with his personal identity being packaged in a retail game where his digital self does Bon Jovi? Kurt once destroyed half his bassists record collection for having 'shit music' such as the Rolling Stones.

    I don't care he's in the game. Fuck it, life goes on. But it is pathetic, ill-fitting, and it's definitely not something he "would've loved."

    And what of Frances Bean? How must it be for her to have all her friends (assuming her mother hasn't already scared the crap out of them) to load up their video games and see her dead father singing crap Bon Jovi tunes?

    "Indeed, securing the proper approvals was no small feat. Not only did Cobain’s widow Courtney Love have to sign off on behalf of the estate, so did former drummer Dave Grohl and Primary Wave Publishing, which administers the Nirvana catalog." -- RS article

    Ugh.

    Anyway, see also: The Alternate History of Kurt Cobain

    As an ardent lover of Kurt Cobain, I'm just going to walk away and pretend this doesn't exist. I'd say that I wish Courtney would rot, but judging by recent pictures, it seems she's two steps ahead on that front.

    Also, I wasn't under the impression that Dave Grohl had any real control over the music or Kurt's likeness, but honestly, if he is partially responsible, I don't really begrudge him that; Cobain's suicide could've left him a poor, careerless nobody and it's to Grohl's credit that he started over again and became an even bigger star than before with the Foo Fighters. Doesn't look like Krist Novoselic's been nearly as lucky.

    Well, if Kurt really were in hell, this is probably a remarkably accurate depiction of what it would be like.

    The rest of the band consists of (1) A reject from Rock of Love Bus (2) An extra from Nickelodeon's "Doug" and (3) a freakin' SKELETON.

    With that horrible hodgepodge of a lineup they wouldn't be out of place on a Guns n Roses or Smashing Pumpkins reunion tour

    Everyone always says she looks so much like Kurt but to me she looks like the spitting image of pre-plastic surgery Courtney.
