Remembering Kurt Cobain and Layne Staley. Today is a very memorable day for all people who love grunge music like me because we comemorate the life and music of two of the most influencial rock icons, Kurt Cobain and Layne Staley. When I was a kid growing up in the early 90's Nirvana and Alice In Chains were one of the first bands that I used to listen to and made me learn how to play the guitar and join bands, both these bands were a huge influence in my playing. I remember everytime I play their records I used to turn the volume so loud so I can fully enjoy their songs, I only do this when my parents are not around the house because they hate it when I listen to this kind of music because they say it's noise not music. It's so sad to think that they are gone now, that's why I made it a habit to listen to their songs every 5th of April to pay tribute to them and celebrate the great music they left behind and I hope that the next generation will also discover their legacy. It's also my dream to visit Seattle and Aberdeen Washington someday where grunge sound originated and also to visit the first and the original Starbucks.
