Why do I like this??

because kurt cobain wore a shirt with that on it once so daniel johnston entered the mainstream

Because it's brilliant

Not even true. I guarantee you most Nirvana fans don't know who DJ is

>>74637550
because its good or you're a poser, either way go away

>I guarantee you most Nirvana fans don't know who DJ is

true, but most johnston fans wouldn't know who he is if Kurt didn't wear that shirt

>>74637550
i bought it on vinyl i loved the album so much

half true. Alot of people became fans because of kurt wearing the shirt, But im sure the rest got into him through friends or other means. I didnt know kurt wore until after i got into him. Youre not wrong if saying thats how he reached popularity at first, but its no longer like that i dont think

if kurt had never wore that shirt no one would know him now. he was in a mental hospital when he got big

just sayin. I like the guy and his music, but there's no way I, or the vast majority of his fans, would have heard about him without Kurt wearing his shirt


so the reason the OP likes this album is because of Kurt Cobain.

uh, yeah i pretty said i agree with you. But today the shirt isnt the only way hes getting new fans. Besides i have faith that if kurt didnt wear the shirt he would still reach popularity some other way. even if it wouldnt get him as big as he is know.

why? many artists die in obscurity. you shouldn't try to rationalize something like this, just accept it.

uhh, you do know he was on mtv and stuff before kurt wore his shirt right? Im not saying things would be the same if kurt didnt wear the shirt. Im just saying that i dont think DJ would have been 100% forgotten

no he wasn't.

" His local standing led to him being featured in a 1985 episode of the MTV program The Cutting Edge featuring performers from Austin's "New Sincerity" music scene"

from the wiki, do your research

I knew of DJ long before I finally sat down and listened to a single nirvana album.

No idea that Kurt wore the shirt and even purchased one myself because I liked the cover design so much before being told by /mu/ I was a poser faggot that was simply copying Kurt
