Everyone’s always waxing poetic about how great social media is because it allows ordinary people to voice their opinions so the world can hear them out. Well, guess what? The little people have a lot of shitty takes such as 30,000 individuals signing a petition to drink the murky red liquid (sewage water) found in a mysterious black sarcophagus from 2,000 years ago. The latest bad idea might even be worse than chugging sewage water – having Chad Kroeger be the lead singer in a Nirvana reunion.
Nirvana, quite arguably the last rock band to have an overwhelming influence on not just music but also on culture, will never have a reunion because Kurt Cobain has been dead for over 24 years now. But that didn’t stop the internet from devising a sacrilegious Nirvana reunion featuring Chad Kroeger from Nickleback replacing Kurt Cobain on lead vocals. Blasphemy!
Some instigating sum-a-bitch started a Facebook campaign titled “Nirvana Reunion With Chad Kroeger From Nickelback On Vocals” in a true-life testament that pure evil exists in our world today. The reunion show would star living Nirvana members Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic, and Pat Smear playing on the same stage with the Canadian “Photograph” singer. Dave Grohl not singing while Chad Kroeger is attempting to squeal out “Breed” or “Negative Creep?” No fucking thank you.
The definitely never happening event would be held at the Nirvana Hair & Beauty Bar in Manchester, England, on January 1st. This absurd nonsense has over 1,500 pledging to go to the reunion and nearly another 4,000 interested in going. DO YOU PEOPLE HAVE NO SOUL? I had no idea that so many people were full-fledged sadists.
To whoever created this campaign: are you happy with yourself? You’ve got all the attention you wanted. Congratulations. The only person I’d give a pass for creating this profane idea would be if Chad Kroeger created this campaign himself as an attempt to perform with Nirvana. Otherwise, the creator should be strapped in a chair and forced to listen to “How You Remind Me” for 407 straight hours.
