Quote: Kurt the School Shooter (1993)

[rocknroll1968]

Jon Savage: Did you have problems in high school?

Kurt Cobain: Yeah. You know I felt so different and so crazy that people just left me alone. I always felt that they would vote me "Most likely to kill everyone at a high school dance." You know?

(22 July 1993)

Archivist's note: Thank god he picked up a guitar instead of a gun!!

Welcome to the Nirvana Slash Archive! Est. 2019

The primary purpose of this archive is to collect and preserve information about rock band Nirvana's contribution to bi and gay culture and history.

Also included are quotations related to women's rights/feminism, race and racism, and social class, since these topics tend to intersect with queer politics.

The archivist collects and documents both factual information (including quotes, photographs, videos, audio, etc.) about the band, along with oral history related by fans, which may or may not be fully true, but which shows the thoughts and feelings of the broader Nirvana community.

Any Nirvana fan who is serious about contributing to the archive according to the listed rules may request to join. Just send rocknroll1968 a message. Guidance about how I run the archive can be found here.
