Every band that makes a living playing music was in the right place at the right time. Still, Smells Like Teen Spirit was destined to be an anthem. Bash me for being obvious but that song was destined.

Frownland, on Grunge going corporate, man, all those guys wanted to be rockstars from the get go. I knew that apathy schtick was bull**** before it even started. Apathetic people don't have Marshall Stacks. They were always just as about the money as the rappers who bragged about it. They got what they wanted. Even Cobain.
