away because the LEEDS show was SOLD OUT, check again for tickets for

November 3rd!
Second LONDON show added October 31st!
Commentary: The only real "problem" with
the gaming Cobain virtual character might be that in the game,
you can put him on stage with other bizarre CG characters and
have him sing wimpy songs to where the visual result looks a
little silly. Other stars or look a-likes are in the game
- the character itself is as tasteful as you can get for a
computer generated image. The furor appears to driven by a
religiously saint-ified status given to the memory of Kurt by
some, or a categorical distain for Courtney, or both.
