Then the sergeant walked over, pointing to a page in the magazine. “Is this you?” It was a photo of the biggest band in the world, Nirvana. Kurt Cobain had just killed himself, and this was a story about his suicide. Next to Cobain was the band’s onetime second guitarist. A guy with long, strawberry blond curls. “Is this you?”

 

Everman exhaled. “Yes, Drill Sergeant.”

 

And that was only half of it. Jason Everman has the unique distinction of being the guy who was kicked out of Nirvana and Soundgarden, two rock bands that would sell roughly 100 million records combined. At 26, he wasn’t just Pete Best, the guy the Beatles left behind. He was Pete Best twice.

That is a good read, thanks for posting.

Great story of the kid who was fired from 2 huge bands right on the brink of them going big to a special forces hero in the Army.

 

This would make a great movie.

Very interesting story.

I read that the other day. Really intriguing story. These kinds of stories always make me stop and realize just how extraordinary everyone's personal story is, and how interested I am in hearing even those who don't make it into the news because they're not celebrities, and such.

Nice
