    Yeah, just heard about. Sounds like a great line-up. Dave Geraghty from Bell X1, Berkley, Matt Lunson, Primed, Andalusia. I heard that one of the special guests will be Ollie from Turn. I think tickets go on sale this Monday.

    Yeah "Sing, Sing" Terry Cullen from TSR's band might be playinig too. Tickets are on sale from the Music Centre box office. Price is a very reasonable €10. Doors 7.30pm - 3am (including indie-rock club). Message Ends. Thanks.

    Pablo, I agree with you. It's not very likely that he wrote diaries and journals with an onus on the whole world reading them. This is another move by greedy corporate f**kwits cashing in, because Kurt isn't around to defend himself. But hey they're always milking dead artists anyway. I mean, how many Elvis books/compilations/ etc etc etc have there been over the years? You couldn't even guess Q2

    The man couldnt give a flying bird sh1t what any of us read about him now though in fairness. It is sick sh1t though, no doubt. The carers of his estate are obviously out to get a few more dollars out of the misery of an addict, just like the dealers of that crap. On the other hand, the personal diaries of the great poets from before any of our time help to fill out our appreciation of some of the worlds finest writing...i dont know that thats exactly why this is being done though. I would wager its not. Motives are'nt honourable here I reckon!

    Price is a very reasonable €10. Jaysus, €10 reasonable for a bunch of bands doing covers? There are a load of bands in limerick doing a vibe for kurt on saturday night for just €5 or free if you go to a 7 hour music seminar (only €5) before hand upstairs in dolans.

    Hey if anyone wants to pay 40 euro for the train down to limerick thats a cool solution. Bands aren't all playing covers anyway - its pretty much 50/50. I still think 10 euro for 7 hours of music and mayhem is pretty good.

    It seems kinda weird to me that I live in Seattle and there's nothing like this going on. That I've heard of, anyway. I wish someone would get together all the old Seattle greats for a tribute--but it'd have to be a tribute for Layne and Andrew as well. RIP.

    Just bought a ticket at City Discs. Very good bill. Surprised Turn aren't doing anything. The spirit lives on.

    don't think whole country lives in dublin despite popular belief. ah still is good value for all those hours. Presume money going to some form of charity?

    That's correct. And Layne Staley's death was approximated to have occurred on the same day, which makes it doubly depressing.
