i think so. there were too many differences between members. i think kurt would've kicked dave to the curb or left nirvana altogether...

i prefer how that token eastern song sounds than the released version...

SonikJesus 06.07.2006 12:49 AM

I have the whole session too. I got it off of a kick-ass torrent on onemoresolo.net which had almost nothing but Nirvana torrents. It was this 2-disc compilation called loose ends. Everything was the highest quality possible. I love it. I haven't heard the official release of Token Eastern song but i love this version. Whatever happened to the onemoresolo site.

it's still up and running...

I remember when Nirvana first came out on the radio and on MTV, it united people. Suddenly everyone was tied together by a common love for one band. The generation had been quiet, still hungover from the greed and suicides of the 80s, all the fake hair bands with their sex and drugs and alcohol and pithy rock n roll, which was always secondary to the image, the style anyway. Nirvana brought everyone together, from the freaks to the plebians to the upper crust. The jocks and the geeks were momentarily singing along together to SLTS and everyone loved Nirvana. But I believe this was the overriding factor that overwhelmed Kurt Cobain and the band. They became more than an image, more than a band, more than a style. They became media gods and were worshipped, their every word and action gobbled up by a generation hungry for substance and something different. They were a phenomenon and they wanted to be rock star musicians.

Aww YES!! Wasn't it down for a while? That's why I stopped going there. I checked everyday for a week then I gave up. You guys should check it out. It has almost nothing but Nirvana torrents.

Well, he wasn't circa Odelay that's for sure. I saw him at a festival during the Midnight Vultures era and then he was horrible for sure.

Rolling Stones are horrible though except for Paint it Black.

Toilet & Bowels 06.10.2006 07:03 PM

my first show was guns n roses. but not by choice.


and motorhead beats the stones for sure.

Savage Clone 06.10.2006 07:24 PM

Motorhead beats a LOT of stuff.
My first show was Men At Work, 1983. I was 12 years old and I went with my aunt.

krastian 06.10.2006 10:08 PM
