Turns out my list isn't quite as complete as I thought it was. I either missed these pictures or they were recently uploaded.

August 17th, 1990 - Picture only (Although there may be unreleased video footage) This looks like Kurt's Mosrite.

August 19th, 1990. There are several pictures.

August 24th, 1990. Several pictures.

Most people think Kurt bought his Mosrite a few days before the garage show. Looks like pictures have proven otherwise.
1966 Ventures II (German Carved, B670.)
1970s "Not a Blues Bender" Bodies: 2.
1976 Brass Rail Deluxe #10.
2013 Fender Pawn Shop Bass VI.

There is a show there for 12/3/93 in Tallahassee, FL. I was at Florida State at that time. ALot of my friends were going. I didn't have the cash. I even said to them that "I should see them now, because Kurt will be dead soon". I really didn't know how profetic that was. I really wish I would've gone.

Being in the skateboarding & punk scene, I was exposed to the seattle music far before the rest of the others that were around me. They were still listening to Tesla & Guns & Roses when I brought in music from these guys. THey were used to me playing weird stuff. I always insisted Gang Green be played at our parties. A couple years later these guys were plastered all over hte place.

What a waste.
In order of purchase:
1) Mosrite Ranger
2) V88
3) Stereo 350
4) Hallmark II in Johnny Blue
5) Danelectro '66
6) Celebrity III
7) Hallmark Gospel
8) Serenade
9) Eastwood 300

I had a friend that got me into Punk. Before that I was totally into GNR. It was around that same time Teen Spirit came out I started listening to the MC5, The New York Dolls, Velvet Underground, and The Stooges.
It took a little time for me to come around to 70's punk, The Ramones and modern bands like Nirvana. Once I understood it, there was no going back.

"plastered all over the place." Pun intended?
