Pearl Jam always made more sense than Nirvana, whom obviously exploded trying to handle fame, cause they went for it, nothing bad with it but that’s the difference between both bands. So to me Nirvana doesn’t represent punk, nor freedom. How could an addict represent freedom? Kurt was a genius but he was pathetic.

kurt cobain is an icon to those who still believe in punk and grunge ideals. his music and his memory arn’t dying any time soon. and the theory of his suicide was never proven, his wife is still suspected of murder, they just never proved it and gave up the case for some reason. and i also would not say punk is dying either. it still beats on in all those who are willing to fight for the right to be themselves openly and express their thoughts and feelings without consequences.

punk will never die as long as the fight lives on

Well, I like the idea that we are introducing today’s youth to music with meaning &.passion. Converse are the “cool” shoes these days, and if kids see Kurt on them, maybe they’ll look up Nirvana & discover good music. I dunno about you, but this cheesy @ss rap music these “emo” kids are listening to while claiming they are “punk rockers” is making me sick. My 3yr old son is more punk than these kids….

Love, Peace, Nirvana….
RIP Kurt & River.

Angela I , try to make your point without resorting to personal insults or swearing – most people who comment here manage to express their opinions more stylishly.

to anyone who uses the word ‘retard’ : this word is an unacceptable way to describe a human being. Only the tasteless, uncouth and uneducated use it. Don’t be one of them.

Your “grown up self” really needs grammar lessons. Kurt Cobain inspires people who love music for the soul of it. I’ve been searching for these converse all over the web in an effort to buy them. They will be my first and only pair of converse. I think it’s brilliant for them to use Kurt as a model. Why? because that’s what he was. He was the hero of an entire generation. My generation, however, doesn’t care about the soul of music the ways others do… they care about heartless sounds with catchy riffs, beats and naughty lyrics. It’s not meant to appeal to JUST our generation. It’s meant to appeal to everyone… they’re hoping you come as you are.

you know what he’s not gone and never will be and idc who doesn’t like it Kurt Cobain is history and always will be. My great grand kids will know who he is. He’s gone and you still can’t quit talkin about him. Don’t you get why he killed himself … cause retards who cant let people be themselves everyone isnt perfect and cant live a comercial – enjoying life okay? Not everyone has that ability. I hate people that just assume crap without knowing anything. People just suck balls ok so if we wanna wear converse with Cobain’s words suicidal or not its our choice get over it asshole.

@Adriana
Google is actually right I think. “Vultures” is the term you are looking for.
” a person or thing that preys, esp. greedily or unscrupulously: That vulture would sell out his best friend. ”

If anything I’d have to agree with henry, Buy normal shoes and a sharpie and do the same.

I like Converse because I like them. I liked them before grunge appeared. But they’ve a different meaning for some people because Kurt Cobain and with him millions of others wore them back in the hey-days of grunge.
