It's an excellent DVD, I'm sure you will enjoy it. 695424@blogcritics.org Thu, 14 Feb 2008 19:22:10 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/02/13/212147.php#comment-695204 Great review Kevin. Tad never really their due as one of the earliest protagonists of grunge, thats for sure. Living in Seattle, I also knew both Tad and Kurt quite well back then. The story behind the picture in that lawsuit (the couple you mention is this biker-hippie looking sort of guy cupping his girlfriend's breast), is that the pic itself was something found at a garage sale I believe. You can't make this shit up. Tad's reputation for partying is also certainly well-earned, and he was also one of the funniest guys you'd ever hope to throw back a few beers with. But beneath all that, he was also one of the truly nicest guys too. When I moved to L.A. from Seattle, Tad was one of the few guys from the "scene" who showed up at my going away party and I'll always remember that. Great review. I'll be picking this one up for sure. -Glen 695204@blogcritics.org Wed, 13 Feb 2008 21:29:06 EST
