(Blabbermouth) In a recent interview with Newdealers.com, CINDERELLA drummer Fred Coury spoke about how his band — one of the biggest rock acts of the late '80s — was seemingly sidelined by the grunge explosion of the early '90s.
"I'll tell you about the Kurt Cobain [NIRVANA] thing, he knew what he was doing," Coury said. "I mean, if you don't want the fame, don't go on tour, don't go on MTV, and if you don't want the money, there are plenty of kids out there with cancer that do need it. I mean, to blow your brains out in your 10,000-square-foot mansion is ridiculous. He should have been in a small, one-bedroom apartment and should have given all his money to cancer research. So I don't buy any of it — I don't buy any of that crap. It's a total farce that they didn't want the fame."[see full story for more]

Cinderella jibes are easy to make, but did this guy say anything that wasn't true? If Bruce Springsteen had said these comments, you three would probably respect it. The only thing worse than a nutswinger is three of them.

Crybaby jealousy from a tool who wouldn't know good music even if you beat him over the head with your stereo. Face it, AquaNet Boy, Kurt SLAYED your cheesy band and its cheesy music. And Kurt was murdered!

Those Queens from Cinderella used to hang out at the Galaxy and everyone thought they were chicks. When they shopped at Sater's they thought they were stars and the "regular" people had to get to the back of the line. I dunno how they could walk around with all that makeup & hairspray without getting beat on though. Never did hear thier music.
