Smells Like a New Blogger: Krist Novoselic
Posted Nov. 7, 2007 at 5:00 pm by Chris KornelisI'm excited to announce that our friend Krist Novoselic, political activist, former bassist for Nirvana, and current member of Flipper, has joined our stable of bloggers. He'll post a regular column, which has yet to be named, every Tuesday on The Daily Weekly. He plans to write about politics, news, music, and culture. In his first post, "Smells Like (Put Word Here) Spirit," Krist addresses the origins of the title, "Smells Like Teen Spirit," anarchy, and the WTO riots of 1999.
In addition to his blogging duties, Krist has agreed to join Managing Editor Mike Seely and Editor Mark Fefer in their a capella group, Scatamaran. Watch Reverb for tour dates.
Welcome aboard, Krist.

We'll sing In My Room in German. The Beach boys did this - I have the record. The literal translation is "All Alone" Somehow -zimmer- must not have hit the phrasing quite right.

It's good to see someone with your perspective and experience, musical and political, join our hallowed Weekly. Congratulations to you, Krist, and to the Weekly for their exquisite good taste.

Posted Nov. 8, 2007 at 12:35 pm by JoeHey Krist...Beach Boys records need to be broken, german or not.
Posted Nov. 8, 2007 at 4:56 pm by AstralAstrayNo, I have to agree with Joe. I am also stoked to find you writing a blog. I am still tring to figure out Murky Slough though(
I would like to inform Mr. Novoselic that we live in a Republic and not a Democracy and there's a huge difference. Why do we permit politicians to sell us Democracy when we have paid for our Republic in blood? I challenge all Americans to answer this question for themselves.
