nirvananews:

We’re sadden to announce the death of Kurt Cobain’s grandfather Leland Cobain. He was 89 and passed away last night. He was very dear to every Nirvana fan that came into contact with him and would constantly write letters back and forth to fans worldwide. He would allow anyone inside of his home when they needed to talk or just browse Kurt Cobain photos and other memorabilia.

Leland was the only surviving Cobain family member left that was open to the Nirvana fans and wanted to hear what they had to say when it came to discussing Kurt’s death or his life history before or during the Nirvana years.

R.I.P - Leland Cobain.

October, 1992 interview.
SPIN Magazine: “How did the childhood and teenage years affect your choice of career?”

Courtney: “I was moved around a lot. I have a really dysfunctional family. My mother is really detached. My real father is insane. The only good person in my family is my stepfather. He wasn’t in my life that much, though, and I was in institutions. I was in juvenile hall for four years, boarding school for three years.”

Kurt: “I had a really good childhood up until I was nine years old. Then a classic case of divorce really affected me and I moved back and forth between relatives all the time. And I just became extremely depressed and withdrawn.”

Courtney: “But he was a boy and so he would go and live under the bridge or he’d go live in a fort. I mean, he really did. Whereas, I was a girl and I could run away and do more glamorous things because people would help me.”

“For Boys. Step #1: Remember that your older brothers, cousins, uncles, & your fathers are not your role models. This means you do not do what they do, you do not do what they say. They come from a time when their role models told their sons to be mean to girls, to think of yourself as better & stronger & smarter than them. They also taught things like: you will grow up strong if you act tough & fight the boys who are known as nerds or geeks.”

- Kurt Cobain

Interviewer: People say you've bewitched Kurt, that he's just a simple-minded guy and you...

Courtney: Well, Jesus, don't flatter him all at once. One minute he's a leader, a voice for a generation - next minute I'm spoon-feeding him cereal and fucking his life up. Kurt went after me. I wanna tell you about how we finally got together. I was going out with Billy Corgan - for my sins, for my sins, we all make mistakes - actually fuck it, no, he's stuck up for me. Billy's okay. He was good in bed. Very good in bed. Anyway, I was with Billy, and I went on tour with him in Europe. They [The Pumpkins] were playing some festival with Nirvana, and I stood on the side of the stage and Kurt was drunk, really really drunk, staggering all over the stage. He started singing a song in a really high voice about me, he and Dave [Grohl] were making jokes about me and Billy, and it was so embarrassing. I was squeezing Billy's hand digging my nails right in. Anyway, the dressing-room was covered in graffiti about me, which I found out later Kurt had done, because he was jealous of Billy. And all round Europe, the Pumpkins played in venues a week after Nirvana, and every dressing room had something scrawled in it from Kurt. There were hundreds of weird coincidences. I didn't initially go after him. I wanted him to date Kat [Bjelland, from Babes in Toyland]. I tried to get them together. So everyone can stop all this shit now. It's the lying I can't stand. It's the lying that gets me down. One thing this last terrible year has proved: if you lie about us, I will hit you, Kurt will shoot you, and we will sue.

nirvananews:

“I had a shitty life till I was about 17. I sat in my room for 90 per cent of the time. I’d go home after school, play my guitar and listen to music. The States seemed so big to me that I thought I’d never leave the region. At a younger age, everything seemed so simple and easy, I thought I could be President. By the age of nine, I pretty much gave up any idea of ever even surviving the age of 21 because I felt so completely alienated. I probably alienated myself more than the other way round. I was always trying find someone who liked art or music, but it was always sports.” - Kurt Cobain.
