The Fool On The Hill Had A Life Before GSB ![]() Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 26154 | Nope. It's Chris. He sings any punk cover. Umm he sang Danny Says and Kiss the Bottle and I'm sure there are more but I cna't thkn. The only person who hasn't sang on any Bside is Nate |

Janie Jones Falling In Love With The Board ![]() Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 5438 | wonderwall: *waves* g'night mate! ahahaha, I was re-reading the old Dave interviews I have saved on here and they're cracking me up. Your next UK appearance will be with Oasis at the end of year. Last week you covered 'Lyla' and then made a disparaging comment about the lyrics. Are you still looking forward to that show? "I'm sure Noel's fine! I love the Oasis guys - they're hilarious. Whenever I bump into them they're either showing me pictures of their kids or they're talking about music in general." “Standing next to Springsteen freaked me out. It’s like meeting Abraham Lincoln without the hat.” ![]() What does God look like? "Gandalf The Grey." ![]() and one of my all-time favorites: When you see her next, could you have a quiet word about her getting those nasty hooters out all the time? "A quiet word? A quiet word! Nobody has ever had a quiet word with Courtney Love. It's just not possible." |
The Fool On The Hill Had A Life Before GSB ![]() Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 26154 | ![]() ![]() Wasn't he the one who introduced Courtney to Kurt? I bet he felt shitty after that. AH You've disappeared again. I'll be back. Must shower. We gave a bath to my dog and mind you he made a shit 2 times during the process. Once on the bathroom floor and again in the tub. I was like to my mom "Guess you're not showering here anytime soon" |
wonderwall Geek ![]() Age: 37 Gender: Female Posts: 265 | No one's really sure who introduced the two of them. The nirvana biography says courtney would call dave and then ask to talk to kurt, but everett true's book says he introduced the two of them to each other, and there's sort of a third person in there somewhere. Everett True's book is...interesting. it's sort of like an oral history. There's some interesting details in there about how kurt would put down Dave in interviews and how the band almost broke up a couple times. Kurt's guitar tech quit the in utero tour because he thought he was being really cruel to dave. |

wonderwall Geek ![]() Age: 37 Gender: Female Posts: 265 | Well it doesn't go into that much detail, just says that they were estranged from each other. Courtney would tell him starting around mid-1993 that he'd be better off without Dave. I guess he started putting him down in interviews and being an asshole at soundchecks. Dave himself recently made reference to this, both in his comments about how he got like 1 compliment in the four years he was in the band, and then again when he spoke to an interviewer about how Kurt felt about him: "I don't think I've ever told anyone this, but there were times when Kurt was really unhappy with the way I played drums. I could hear him talking about how much he thought I sucked. But he'd never say it to me. If I'd confront him about it -- "Is there a problem? If you want me to leave, just ask" -- he'd say, "No, no, no." Most of that happened later, around In Utero. That's when I think Kurt became unhappy with what was happening with the band. Kurt was so many different things. He was funny or shy or this outgoing, larger-than-life persona. He could be sweet or he could be fucking wicked. He could be intimidating. I thought I was a decent drummer, but I didn't know if I was good enough to be doing this thing, this big deal. I didn't imagine myself a world-class drummer. I was the same fucking drummer that was in Scream, or playing on my bed. All the pressure.... I can't think of one show that I ever played with that band where we walked offstage and said, "That was great." Never one. Only two times did I get any reassurance from Kurt. Once when I joined the band, in 1990, we were drunk at some disco in England, and Kurt came up and said, "I'm so glad you're in this band. I'm so glad you're down-to-earth." I was like, "Wow!" The next time was in late '93 or early '94 when I came home and turned on my message machine and had a message from Kurt that said, "Y'know, I was just sitting here listening to In Utero, and your drumming is so awesome. You did such a great job!" I was like, "Wow!" Those two things were spread out by about four years [laughs]." The band apparently got really distant and fucked up around the time of in utero and a lot of nasty things were said- supposedly dave had a huge fight with courtney in the studio for in utero. a lot of it's speculation, and dave's not talking, which I admire about him. |
