Back in 1991, Kurt Cobain and Dave Grohl played an acoustic set to more than a couple dozen people in Scotland. And recently, AltPress reported that a recording of their set for charity was unearthed.
Playing under the pseudonym “Teen Spirit,” (very deep cover, with that name🙄), the Nirvana duo played “Dumb,” “Polly,” and a cover of the Vaselines’ “Jesus Doesn’t Want Me for a Sunbeam.” The audio is a little rough, but not bad for tape that is 26 years old. Enjoy. — [eric]

Glitter is an ecological nightmare, finding its way nearly a third of the fish we potentially eat. For that reason, science is calling for a ban on the stuff.
Words actually read while perusing an article on the evils of glitter: “Arts and crafts enthusiasts have known for years that glitter tends to attach itself everywhere and never seems to come off. ”
Yeah, right. ✌️Arts and craft enthusiasts.✌️
Gentlemen, you might be off the hook from this potentially incriminating evidence. And ladies, you may need to find another method of detecting whether or not he patronized your local ✌️arts and craft enthusiasts✌️ club during that last bachelor party. — [eric]
