Hey,

Agree with Javro, Nirvana were hugely popular before the death of Kurt.

I don’t really like the martyr in music idea…I understand its out there but prefer my heroes alive and well. Agree some mentioned got more popular after their deaths but so many others…Johnny Thunders/Heartbreakers and Dolls…Malcom Owen/Ruts…Ian Curtis/Joy Division…were wickedly popular before their untimely and very sad deaths. Hopefully people just get into the music because of how very cool it is not the died for rock and roll crap.

Salamiguy hope that J quote is an old one, More Light definitely feels like its coming from a more positive mental state [img]images/smiles/converted/biggrin.gif[/img]
