Got Your 6 Storytellers showcases the exemplary talents of some of our country's most innovative military veterans and how they're impacting their communities.
Jason Everman squandered the early part of his youth playing in rock bands and commercial fishing in Alaska. He is a veteran of OIF/OEF, and has served in both Ranger Regiment and Special Forces. Jason recently graduated from Columbia University with a BA in philosophy, and is currently eyeing post-graduate programs in military history. - Розваги

Thanks to Jason for paying the $600 to record Nirvana's Bleach album. He got the ball rolling, in his own small way.
Without Jason's $600, who knows if the other Nirvana guys would've ever scrounged up the money to pay for it themselves...
Cobain bragged about not paying him back.
Exactly, JT Almighty.
R!OT EARTH What information am I “ignorant” of exactly?
For sure
guy takes on one of the most dangerous careers on the planet and outlives both cornell and cobain, i dont even know what statistics mean anymore
This has to be one of the most darkly reflective and nihilistic comments on the internet this week.
Great comment! I think Dave Grohl and Eddie Vedder might be the only other survivors from that scene. Crazy
Kenton Deschambeault nice bait. But aint good enough
Kenton Deschambeault sorry mate you said it yourself nothing will change your mind so i will not waste my time arguing this. But it’s your right thats been payed with blood to feel this way.
Kenton Deschambeault but in the end the bait wasnt good enough. Maybe next time bud☺️👍
He played in three awesome bands: Nirvana, Soundgarden, and Mind Funk. He financed Nirvana's first album and paid for the tour shirts so they could make a little money on the road. He's the predominant guitarist on the cover of Bleach. He shared the stage with Chris Cornell, Kurt Cobain, Kim Thayill, Krist Novoselic, and Pat Dubar at various moments. He's Jason Everman.
sounds like a pitch to get into a fightclub.
i figure this man should lecture about his experiences as a soldier and now philosopher. on his acheivements and convictions post war post uni. post young adulthood. that is more than meets the eye. given the West has fucked up so much in the wake op 9/11 it would be a valuable perspective.
i like how he didnt even mention the 2 major bands he played in. Respect to the man
what banda
bands
nirvana and soundgarden
Lol no disrespect with nirvana and soundgarden but the best band he joined was the special forces a band of brothers
@@glen366 - You forgot Mindfunk.
Didn’t mention the 2 highly recognizable bands he played with, didn’t mention the 2 most coveted careers in the US Army he served with, still inspired millions of different people and doesn’t accept credit for it. He is THE main character
-Plays guitar in several rockbands.
-Joins US army Rangers
-becomes a Green beret
-attends an Ivy League school
*Certified* Badass.
sounsgarden and nirvanna
Or possibly a victim of a mind control program.
AMEN!!!
@@russianbot2397 shut up!
Not taking anything away from Mr. Everman's service or his bravery... But this guy has something going on just with a quick glance. His timing is perfect, I would tell you this is like hitting the lottery 6 times in a row. Very interesting person.
This is the only man that is allowed to rock a man-bun.
@Jason how many soy boys are ex special forces?
Lol..he can rock any F.ing hair style he likes...even a 1988 hairspray tease...he gets a pass.
The og tarakata warrior
Mate that isn't an effing man bun. That's a retired operator turned hippy haircut.
soldiers be gay anyway
Im commenting using my wife's sign on email because I don't normally comment on social media. Anyhow, got to meet Jason Everman in Kuwait as we were ramping up for the invasion.. Turns out we were co located in the same building and I discovered his presence purely by accident. Got to hear a first hand account of Kurt writing my fav Nirvana song (About a Girl) from Jason. Sadly, I left country a couple days later. Without a doubt, the most surreal memory I have in my 20 year military career and definitely the coolest.... Jason, glad you made it through the war (so did I)..... Wish you the best in future endeavors. It was really awesome to meet you.....
I am an Afghanistan combat vet and this was really neat to hear his story and how he went from a rockstar to a soldier and he loves that he did. Specially when he talked about how you can talk about war, you can watch it on tv, you can read about it but you truly have no idea unless you are there and experience it first person. Super neat and god bless man.
I've always been fascinated with Jason's story. He seems like a very intelligent and humble guy. Much respect.
Gelato556 he is you need to pass a higher battery test to join sof after all
From Nirvana to Rambo. That’s some journey in life.
Rambo ended up working for Buddhist in Rambo 2
I didn't know he played in RAMBO. Sick.
it happen when Kurt Cobain is the chief of your band, He was so directive, He had some idea for the Res publica ! :) lol
If it weren't for you maybe Nirvana would never have recorded Bleach, and Soundgarden wouldn't have your unique bass tone. You contributed a lot to both bands. Thank you Jason! Greetings from Brazil.

Possibly one of the most interesting lives ever lived. Would love to read about it some day.
I played in a punk band, if you want to call it that, with Jason in High School. He was a good kid, pretty quiet, still learning guitar, and not someone you thought would accomplish so much. If you read this Jason congrats on your accomplishments in this crazy world....tell Mimi Jim said Hi! Glad you followed your bliss.
probably does, but it's not. Bands name was Nonsocial. We were just a bunch of kids at a small school in Poulsbo WA. Ben Shepherd of Soundgarden was going there at the same time and was already a talented punk rock musician. Ben's brother Andy had a decent band as well, used to watch them practice after school in film study class. Got me into DK, D.O.A., Black Flag, etc.
Grugen McCrugen That band name makes a lot of sense. I was kidding about your lying. I believe it.
MR.X fuck off it’s cool that they were in a band together and true or not you were challenging it . Couldn’t leave an interesting story alone
I hung out w/ Jason too. We met when he was traveling in Germany in 1987. I introduced him to some local friends and he stuck around for several months.
did you know Kurt Cobain personally too?
"Time only strengthens my conviction that it was a good and strenuous life, and that the war, for all its destructiveness, was an incomparable schooling of the heart."
I saw Jason on the Lemmy documentary and the 1st thought that entered my mind was 'someone should do a documentary on Jason'. A really interesting and righteous dude
He's a great man,and he was great in Nirvana and Soundgarden!
In the NY Times profile on Jason, the author said Jason is one of the most guarded people he's ever met. I doubt Jason would care much for a big spotlight being shined on him like a documentary would.
There's nothing interesting at all about hired killers and mediocre musicians. They're a dime a dozen.
@@josh-rz3uq Jesus man, I'm really curious what your accolades are that you could speak in a manner such as this? Not that it's a pissing contest, but who the hell are you?
@@josh-rz3uq if you read about his missions, several of them were quite noble and had nothing to do with the war machine.
This fellow is an exact example of folks I call "The Quiet Ones". Know a fellow for years and never get a glint of his amazing accomplishments. They tend to have a glow, even while avoiding spotlights.
He's giving you an honest piece of his life and his experiences. You don't have to agree or disagree, just listen. I find it very interesting, it would be fun to listen to him one on one. I sometime wish that I could have had those kinds of convictions and experiences.
What an amazing human. Has accomplished so much, and still humble about it. So much respect.
This is a brilliant individual. Brilliant. His story is not over.
love this guy. He did what was best for him. Real challenges. The most important thing is self satisfaction. If you cannot understand that....
Yeah, if your heart says you need to kill people to feel satisfied, just do it!
Something small in this entire speech that I was just reminded of. Don't ever judge a book by its cover. The most unassuming looking individuals could be the most stone hard badasses.
Omfg. I came here after reading about him in The Nineties (book) and can’t believe he didn’t mention Nirvana or playing with Soundgarden. Damn. The humility of this guy. I would have totally thrown it in for myself. 😂
He also kinda reminds me of my hubs who was also a bit punk, super humble, joined the Army at 26, and is the last person you’d think is in the military.
As humble as he is if he decided to publish an autobiography I'd buy a copy in a heartbeat.
"I played professionally in a few bands"...yeah only Nirvana and Soundgarden
How do you know he didn't play in other bands? You're a fucking idiot!
@@midnightstorm4290 he’s being sarcastic numb nuts
@@midnightstorm4290 you don't understand sarcasm bro
@@Rj-yo4rv It's a fucking shit sarcastic joke moron
He played with Mindfunk as well. Lucky bastard 😂
Happy Veterans Day Jason! We owe the fullest respect ever deserved by this greatest of nations. THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART
Thank you Jason for your service and for being you.
I'm 48 and I still get goosebumps when I listen to Soundgarden, which is constantly/always.
Ha!!! Jason had on CHUCK TAYLOR CONVERSE ALL STARS carrying a M60 Machine Gun in full Gear!!!
FREAKING AWESOME!!! TRUE PUNK ROCKER/SKATER STYLE AT HEART!!LOL 👏👏👏💚💚💚
I joined the military and became an Air Force clerk a long time ago after playing for a while in shitty no-name bands that went nowhere. This fellow joined the special forces after playing with Nirvana and Soundgarden.
Me and you, Jason. Renaissance Men. Nobody understands us.
Fucking brilliant!
You killing any commies?
Me and You. . . really. But i'll grant you served. USN 8300, 30 and out 🎱
Not only Nirvana and Soundgarden, I actually bumped into this guy the 1st time as a Bassist for Old Lady Drivers " musical dimensions of sleastak" - an album I´ve always found great - he does a great job there as a bass player ... this tends to get overshadowed by the other bands he´s been in , of course, yet , without any doubt I find his time as OLD´s bass player to be his best accomplishment in music .
Steve Myers dude you are nowhere near this guys level. You were a pencil pusher and he was kicking ass and slaying bodies. You aren’t a “renaissance man” in any way. So shut the fuck up and don’t even try to make the comparison.
Homage to this man. I find his military achievements way more impressive than his musical ones, and they're not small in any way!
"challenge leads to achievement and achievement leads to joy" love this quote (y)
Was happy to be a part of your past with our group of friends back in the day in the Bainbridge Island/ Poulsbo/ Kingston areas. Great speech Jason nice to have learned about you in the military too and great comparison as well to the punk rock.
My son Bret graduated from ft Benning also. He was based in Washington at ft Lewis after boot camp. In a Stryker brigade. Thanks for your service my friend. I'm a pro musician also. Opened for Motorhead, bls, dope, many others. By the way I'm a double amputee drummer....
I was in 2nd Infantry 2nd Stryker Brigade Combat Team. Small world
@@Gr13fKvlt did u know my son Bret vollbracht
@@judo-drummerboy-tapout
Last name does not ring a bell. I got out in 2017 with Fort Lewis being my last duty station. Is your son still serving?
@@Gr13fKvlt no, he did a tour and was done. this was like12 yrs ago i think.... anyways thanks 4 your service....
"Individuality, question authority, think critically, think for yourself" #JasonEvermanforPresident
The title is a bit misleading. It reads like Punk had some profound insight into joining the service. It should read," Got Tired of Touring With Bands, So I Joined The Military."
I don't think you read between the lines, and it was too short to articulate his experiences and why they were noteworthy spiritually. how he wasn't happy, and needed to fill holes in his soul. He found this sense of purpose and brotherhood in the military with his brothers, learned more about himself through those experiences than living a normal life. IT's hard to understand that unless you've been through it. So it makes sense you wouldn't understand, not to offend you just saying.
Ever have some experience or been searching for some experience that was so life changing and deep that you thank god you were blessed to have experienced it? but somehow cannot put into words what this greatness is? thats what he was trying to get across i think.
I'm a veteran and served w/ pilots and rescue swimmers. I do volunteer work. The title is still misleading.
Not alot can be said in 10 minutes time
MR.X I agree, the video needs a new title.
Agree on this point. That's exactly what I thought myself. Being in a punk rock band didn't inspire him to join the military. It was not a consequential step. Just a way of finding a new purpose and experience.
Hey SFC Everman, your not alone, I too am a SSG in the US Army and now at 11 years TIS. Punk rock drew me into a world then split when I joined the Army at 20. I have been through so much, and must say I am still punk rock but now so far torn between what I am and who I used to be. I respect you for the person that you are and should say thank you for being a fellow brother in arms. but now pick up a guitar and jam , its so relieving from the daily grind of roger roger roger!!!!. your right the word brother is something earned. Brother
TheTacomajoe: We used to sing Punk Rock songs, while on detail, when in Jump School (C Co. 1/507th PIR 1988)... mostly Ramones, but we shared other Punk Rock songs regularly. I'm starting to think it's a Ft. Benning thing...
@@roadapple66 Went thru Ft.Benning in 1993 my battle buddy, Miletich, (remember alphabetical order!) would sing DK songs to stay awake during firewatch
Thank you for your service, sacrifice and courage in a multitude of arts and the military.
Thank you. I made a transition very similar and came back to music. The military serving 12 years after my music days. Thank you for telling. The world your story
A potential biopic right there.....
Everman`s life story already sounds like a movie. I could see it working as a biopic.
Wow! Just watched mr. Everman's bio on UA-cam. Very impressed. He may not be the quintessential rock star but he is definitely a war hero and without his help nirvana may have never gained their footing to become so huge. I am definitely a fan of his now. Sometimes the quiet one is the most prolific. Thank you for your service and contribution to music mr. Everman. God speed to all of your endeavors. Kudos!
One of the most fascinating people on the planet. Hope he writes a memoir someday. Dude has experienced the lives of 10 men. So wild.
Seems like a humble genius
Thanks for your service - helluva ride.
Here's a TED talk that I can get behind
I love this talk,I like to listen too it every once and a while to keep me grounded,thank you Jason
Legendary man...and a nervous man
Isla Bonita kind of yes. Guess he doesn't do that type of thing much.
How do you figure that? I thought he was very well spoken, and very articulate.
CJB b When he was in Nirvana (or maybe in Soundgarden, I don't exactly remember) the other band members considered him a total mooder and a very instable person, very negative for the band. I read an article about him years ago.
@@MLCrow yeah cause he wasn’t sitting around doped up with them, so of course he was a “mooder” to them.....if he was “unstable” he would’ve not become a green beret...period....I don’t think you understand just what this man has accomplished....it blows anything nirvana and sound garden has done out of the water, period....regardless of how many records or how much money they made....it doesn’t hold a candle to what green berets accomplish just in training, let alone over seas....
"Jason Everman squandered the early part of his youth playing in rock bands..."
He was in NIRVANA....
and soundgarden... kicked out of both
@@matteframe And Mindfunk
@@matteframe guess he just wasn’t into drugs hard enough....glad he became a green beret instead of a junkie rockstar.
@@Cody2nd that's BS, it had nothing to do with drugs, it just didn't work out. After a tour with Nirvana, Jason just didn't really enjoy it that much any longer
@@raymondhartmeijer9300 ya, he probably didn't enjoy it because everyone was strung the fuck out 24/7. It definitely had to do with drugs.
Respect Jason,
Keep doing your thing and do what you believe in. Peace.
Jason thank you for your service
Thank you for your service ....right decision in life rather than indulge in drugs like other rockers... the military was a positive plus in you...
what a powerful message he addressed at the end thank you for your service
I feel like I did this in reverse. I joined a drum corps here in Germany. Although it’s music it has all the discipline and human relationship aspects of the military. For work I tried something else at first but felt like him unaccomplished and always searching. Now I’m a music teacher and performer. I always loved the music, but the discipline and order changed everything back in the drum corps days.
This was awesome, thank you for sharing a glimpse into your life, and thank you for your service!
I don't think I've ever had so much respect for one human being before.
silly
You can kind of tell that when he talks about music he misses it, he misses a time of innocence and joy; seems like he saw some bad shit in combat that stuck with him and will forever, he focuses a lot on his time serving
It's funny I saw this before I made a decision to enlist because I felt the same way dissatisfied with everything, still am, but I met my amazing wife and now she's pregnant and I can't regret it because she's my everything, but still I want to thank Jason, without you I wouldn't have met her and I did meet some awesome brothers along the way.
Amazing life! Achieving then getting a chance to tell his story. Gutsy lad!
9:57 and I want to know more about this man. Serving in the military not only made me grow up but shaped my future and in a way shaped my daughters. Punk rock is one bond that my brother and I share, never thought that would happen, weird how things workout.
Well spoken!
Yep, WUSC here in Columbia, SC had hardcore night one night a week in the 80's too, I would record it with a jambox cassette player/recorder. Ended up going to see Black Flag when I was 14 which was a life changing experience
Outstanding my friend! Legend! And one Hell of a life you have lived so far~
Thankyou so very much for sharing.
Very authentic and and real.
Wish I could converse and pick your brain some day~
And Thank for your service in Both Realms!
Oh man, one minute in and he drops the KCMU reference. I listened to that same show - "Brain Pain," with Jeff Gilbert.
It's crazy how after a lifetime of gear achievement, almost 30 years later he's still most well known for playing guitar in a band for a short amount of time years before they even made it big. Even though he never recorded with Nirvana, the world might've never gotten Nirvana at the level that we did if it weren't for Everman since he's the one that paid the sub pop fee to release the Bleach.
WOW!!!! This is a man with an incredible C.V, just one of his accomplishments would be enough for any other mere mortal, this man really is a role model for this generation of youth, again...WOW.
Great man. He's real. Love 'em. :)
Much respect for you Jason
Here is a man from my generation that is to be respected. A degree in Philosophy from an Ivy League school, a musician that played in impressive bands, and a Special Forces veteran of Afghanistan and Iraq. He presents himself as modest and intellectual, unlike Ted Nugent, a loud mouth, sexist, draft-avoiding coward. Real men don't write songs about abusing women and gun-hugging. Real men use guns when needed, then put them away afterwards. This man is an inspiration, Ted is a dangerous joke, that does not deserve respect for anything about his life. Here is a truly impressive American Gen-Xer.
Ted Nugent (hardly a Gen-Xer) did save the life of an off-duty policeman who was getting physically assaulted by two younger crooks on the street while he and his wife Shemane were out on the town celebrating their 10 year anniversary. That isn't an act of a coward, regardless of how he responded to the Vietnam draft.
DeadlyRamon.. I will say this though. What I like about this guy is that though he was special operations, dedicated service to his country and to us civilians, he has strong sense of compassion and the ability to talk to young folks. Personally Ted Nudget probably loves this country just as any body else.. but my problem with him is spends more time wanting set of liberal people, young people and anyone that doesn't agree with him..and appearently enjoys doing it. To each their own I guess.. Mad props to this guy who is a special operator who rock a 'man-bun' , still dig the band Black Flag and share how his story is connected to the rest of us.
Why are we even talking about Ted Nugent?
Matt, agreed!
I agree with you, matthew gallaway. I prefer not to spend too much time talking about Ted Nugent. I`ll only do it here because someone else brought his name up.
I don`t have much respect or fondness for Ted Nugent. I never liked him and I think he`s a loud-mouthed, racist, despicable draft-dodging coward who feigns toughness and masculinity by hiding behind his arsenal of weapons(but of course, he does have every right to own said weapons).
I do think Ted loves his country. I don`t doubt that for a moment but I don`t like him and I think he is a vile and reprehensible human being.
I have a great deal more respect for Jason Everman than I do Nugent. Also, Soundgarden and Nirvana are better than anything Nugent has ever done.
The first hair cut at 30th AG is beautiful!
DV11b: "The first hair cut at 30th AG is beautiful!". It is, most certainly, a "Mighty Fine" haircut!
Admire this guy.
I’m going through the same dilemma right now. I’m playing in an awesome punk band right now. We just got done with a small U.S tour and we’re heading to Japan in September and Europe in October followed by a massive U.S tour for the next 5 months before probably heading back to Europe for the summer. But I’ve been having this desire to join the Army and pursue the same path as Jason. I think about it everyday. It’s always on my mind. I’m 26 now and I don’t want to be 30 and join the military. But I want to be Special Forces. On top of that I want the structure and discipline in my life. I don’t know what to do really.
There are no righteous wars anymore. Do you want blood on your hands? Iskilling innocent people worth the comradery?
yeah dawg. dont do that dumb shit. i am a former marine who deployed to iraq 2x in my early 20s. 1/10- would not do again.
If the Army knows you want to deploy, they won't send you any further than the deepest, darkest North Carolina. You'll be stuck at Bragg until you give up and ETS.
live life with no regrets. if you have a dream of being something greater than yourself, enlist and find out who you are.
Your punk band is probably not that awesome, that’s why you’re unfulfilled.
Fantastic testimony...brother.
there are a few key moments where he looks the audience appropriately, in the eye.
Awesome. I say that as another veteran...
Jason, a Happy New Year to you brother.
Respect to this guy
Wow. Very cool. Tremendous respect for my dude. Tremendous respect and infinite thanks for his service to our country and contribution to the history of rock 'n roll and in particular, a certain band that changed my life and helped form my sense of humanity and artistic principles. Were it not for him stepping up when he didn't have to and pay for that recording session, who knows.
Thank's for you history Jason, nice you history life ,I liven in México tijuana bc have a gread life my friend...
For me - after I joined many of my ex punk/hardcore band mates went on to play for big name world touring bands- bands I know you know. I still wouldn't change the experience I had from the Army. Forever I thought I was crazy for feeling that way until just now, thanks.
IBN Live I’m in the same boat. I’m playing in an awesome band right but I’m seriously considering the Army to grow as an individual
'70s and '80s punk rock is the reason why I joined the Canadian infantry in the late '80s. So I hear you brother
"Be yourself, who cares what they say. Be yourself, be it right or wrong"
Nice quote there.
I would never think that Jason Everman, passed from a punk rocker to a militar dude, i mean, when i knew i was like blown away.
So amazing.. Not in one, but two bands, that went on to become incredibly famous. Fun fact.. When Jason was nirvana Seco d guitarist they had the rawest sound ever. He was actually a great guitarist so him with Kurt was incredible. I recommend watching nirvana live at Rhino Records.. Specifically negative creep. Jason's guitar is soooo metal, it still gives me goosebumps.
Sounds like a really interesting life this guy has led
it inspirational hearing stuff like this
Jason Everman, best Nirvana guitarist and lead guitar!
This is kinda like my life’s story so far except I’m not as successful. I’ve played music bounced around traveling worked construction got a scholarship to play soccer in college now I’m thinking about going the navy to become a Seabee at 35. Not happy yet but I’m proud I’ve at least lived an interesting life. Thanks for the video, I appreciate the sentiment more than you know
What i find fascinating about Everman is the relative metric of 'Success'. A lot of people would see him as a 'Failure' that missed the boat with Nirvana. But Success and happiness is completely relative to the Individual.
'Punk rock changed our lives' - Minutemen
Watt
to go from nirvana to killing humans, is something that will never be equaled, in this spin cycle.
He was in Soundgarden as well..
Josh Martins and MindFunk
lancashire bomber oh well we are all pieces of shit and deserve death
yea but remember we live in a relatively polite peaceful society with government and laws. back then people were tribal took what they wanted, rape and murder weren't given names it was just another days work. we are and have been so lucky and spoiled to live in such peace and entitlement that we think war is so foreign of an idea. we judge it without knowing the other side. It's kind of funny how good we have it, and we can judge things without any experience.
@@whiskey4609 What a funny comment! Probably from someone born in US. Your Country gives that "peace" to you by making war with third world countries in their lands, not in "America", the best way to profit. An american talking about nowadays being a peaceful time, thats so funny, even the word "relatively" doesn't fit... I always say, the most dangerous international terrorist group is the US Government and its Army, "lets exploit everything those poor people have, using the argument to install democracy there." But yeah, I agree with you, Americans are certainly very spoiled.
There is a movie to be made by his story and what a story wow!!
His story is similar to mine. I played in a fairly popular So Cal hardcore band "Final Conflict" in the 80s. By the time I was 22 I was bored of the scene and joined the U.S. Army. I served from 87 to 08 as an Infantryman. 30th AG is where I started in November 1987. I never lost my individuality. I had a lot of fun and did some really cool shit. When we crossed the berm on 24 February 1991 in to Iraq we had Slayer's "War Ensemble" blasting in our vehicle. I served in Iraq 03/04 and 05/06. I went back to playing drums in 2009 and still play in a punk band today.
Very cool. What would be a great counter-point for this video would be: "The Military Led Me To Punk Rock" aka Watie from the Exploited
What an amazing person
Wow,amazing,always wondered what happened to him,he didn't even mention nirvana,or soundgarden,I never even knew he was in soundgarden ,I started listening to them in 91 or 92,he was out by then,
His story is pretty incredible,rock star to war vet,🤘I mean if your not happy or fulfilled doing what your doing then figure out whats going to make you feel happy,some people go their whole lives trying to find there place,
What a cool story he has,
Dudes awesome!
Lol when he said fort Benning 30th AG... I remember showing up their then going to sand hill 2/58 F....you remember alot of your brothers from basic training still have friends there
is that reallyJason Everman bass player from Nirvana and Soundgarden?. Glad you found your calling. From skinny punk to Hugo Weaving lookalike is one hell of a journey. Damaged still a great album and last year I saw DK so you never grow out of it. RIP Chris Cornell.
My takeaway: Sex, Drugs, and Rock and Roll + Special Operations = life fulfilled.
Amazing! He did not even mention that he played in NIRVANA and SOUNDGARDEN.
Great segment on personal change/accomplishments. Good comment - flightbynight...
RESPECT!
