Re: Esteban VS Kurt Cobain who's better? (23 replies, posted in Acoustic)
esteban is the better guitar player. but kurt is the better song writer. it wasnt just noise
and if you where ever addicted or have a tortured soul, youd understand. it is a generation thing, i dont understand joni mitchel and i think bob dylan sucks. see my point? music is what speaks to you. kurt is one of the reasons i picked up the guitar. so i could write a song with meaning. if you cant get his meaning then you aint listening.
and for the record im not taking this to seriously.
