Yes, Nirvana, Nirvana, Nirvana, Nirvana.

I started listening to them in 4th grade or something other, the year after he killed himself...I was pissed to say the least...and sad.

& The Beatles during their shay stadium days, and then again during their Let it Be days when they played on the rooftop.

& the pixies in the early, early, kind of skinny Frank Black days...
