April 8, 1994 will live in infamy as the day that Kurt Cobain of Nirvana killed himself. I still remember where I was and what I was doing that day.
I was 17 and in high school. I remember a rumor going around that day in school and I got home and turned on MTV and Kurt Loder was covering the story. I had just started listening to Nirvana and grunge in general. After that I think I listened to Nevermind and In Utero everyday for the rest of the week. I knew how people felt in 1980 when John Lennon was murdered in New York. Nirvana's music got me through high school.
I still think and agree with many people that Kurt killed himself because he could not handle all of the fame he got. His star rose too fast and he was not ready for it. He also had alot medically wrong with him. He started a musical movement called grunge and he helped kill the 80's hair bands that ruled the world for so long.
Thank you Kurt Cobain for the great music you brought into the world. We miss you.
