Seriously. I don’t mean that as a backhanded swipe, but I just don’t get it anymore. (Some) Nirvana fans are pissed off at the Red Hot Chili Peppers for their video of “Dani California” which features Anthony Kiedis dressed up like Kurt Cobain in one segment. Is it just me or is treating Cobain like some holy grail of rock just beyond the pale anymore? The Peppers went and got permission from Dave Grohl of all people to make sure it was OK that they even had it in the video. But apparently that’s not good enough for some folks. I’ll say it again: Nirvana was just a band who were in the right place at the right time. They had some good songs, but there have been tons of artists who came before Kurt Cobain who wrote the same kind of tortured introspective lyrics, and there will continue to be tons in the future. I wonder if these same fans have ever seen the “Robot Chicken” episode featuring “Zombie Idol”, a parody of “American Idol” in which zombie rockers come back from the grave and try to win the contest. Of course, all hell breaks loose and it soon turns into a parody of the remake of “Dawn of the Dead” and when Ving Rhames is about to kill the Kurt Cobain zombie, Kurty takes the shotgun himself and eats it. Yeah, it’s really dark, but I can’t help but laugh every time I see it because I know some fan out there is undoubtedly screaming about it.
