I don't Nirvana can be blamed for stuff like Puddle of Mudd and 3 Doors Down hitting the airwaves. In the case of POM how can Nirvana be held responible for those they inspired? The Beatles are EASILY the best out of all these bands IMO. Vertigo isn't the best work (although its catchy) but any band that can write "One" or any other masterpiece deserves praise. I'm a little scared by some of these ticket prices I am seeing. If I'm facing $200 tickets when they import their show down here I won't be happy.
