KC: Well that was the 5th time Krist had done that \u2013 he could <\/span><\/span><\/p>\nbarely speak anymore his brain was so scrambled so yeah, that’s <\/span><\/span><\/p>\nwhen Jaco Pastorius joined the band and we went all Jazz-Fusion <\/span><\/span><\/p>\nfor a couple years.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/span><\/p>\n\n
\n

Dad: I do miss the old thundering Nirvana sound, rolling around a <\/span><\/span><\/p>\nstadium\u2026<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/span><\/p>\n\n
\n

Kurt: Well, you won’t have to miss it much longer. The rumors are <\/span><\/span><\/p>\ntrue. Krist is feeling better now \u2013 Jaco is working on a spoken <\/span><\/span><\/p>\nword poetry thing with Jim Morrison and the old band has been <\/span><\/span><\/p>\nrecording together for 3 months. The new album is out on June <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n19th and then we hit the road. We’ll be on tour from July well into <\/span><\/span><\/p>\nnext year. <\/span>It’s the massive world-wide stadium tour I always <\/span><\/span><\/p>\nthought I would never do. But that was then, now it’s a damn <\/span><\/span><\/p>\ngood excuse to get out of the house! <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n
