Buy Kurt Cobain’s Nasty Letter To MTV

By Andrew Tijs
Thu, 07 Oct 2010 15:09:36 +1100

A short, bitter letter to MTV from Kurt Cobain is up for auction.

The letter reads (all typos, odd formatting and lack of punctuation Kurt’s own):

“Dear Empty TV/ the entity of all Corporate / GODS / We will survive without you/ easily – - the / oldschool is going / DOWN FAST/ my lifes Dedication/ is Now to Do Nothing/ But SLAG something / Kurdt Kobaineee professional Rock musician”

The single page note in ballpoint pen is on lined, hole-punched notebook paper.

It’s being auctioned by Julien’s online, and had a starting price of $500, with an estimate auction price of between $1000 and $2000.

Right now, after five bids, the price is already up to $2500.

You can get yourself a sheet of snarky Gen-X grunge history by bidding here.
