And I've read some dumb things this year.
Yeah, I'll dignify this with a link, because it could use some dignity. David Marchese at SPIN's piece, "5 Bands Kurt Cobain Would Love", published on Cobain's would-be 42nd birthday, would be totally righteous if it were called "5 Bands David Marchese Thinks Are Authentic" -- or "5 Bands Most People Who Still Like Guitars and Have Their Ear to the Indie-Rock Ground Think Are Authentic" for that matter, but to say somehow that Cobain would've championed these bands because he liked CCR and the Vaselines? Give me a break. He liked Jawbreaker too, but you don't see me saying he'd love Fall Out Boy, despite the obvious influence.
Anyways, rock pundits clearly have been watching too much "Abraham Lincoln would've ___" on cable news, and need to stop getting ideas.
