I remember that Kurt Cobain killed himself when I was a first year medical student. He died at the age of 27, which, interestingly, was also the age at death of several other notable musicians: Brian Jones, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, and Jimi Hendrix. I think that Cobain may have been aware of this fact, and I remember reading an interview with his mother where she had urged him "not to join that stupid club." Pity.

For my hard rock band: Cobain, Hendrix, Entwhistle, Moon.
