Degrees of Separation: Kicking off with Nirvana

5 05 2010

Let’s try something fun.

Let’s see how far we can get with free association between bands, musicians, what have you. With only a beginning and no clear end (that is, until it’s no fun any more), who knows where this’ll end up.

Each link will be fully explained and hopefully somewhat educational for both myself and you. If you think the connection is too hokey or thin, call me out in the comments and we’ll see what we can do.

The rules:

  1. The bands or artists may have shared a bill at some point.
  2. Bands may have shared members or had members who collaborated with them at some point.
  3. Artists and band members may have known each other.
  4. An artist or band may have been directly influenced by the other.
  5. Multiple minor connections that together make the link seem not as strenuous.

To not paint ourselves into a corner at the start, and to kick off with one of my favorite bands performing one of my favorite songs off of my favorite album, we’re going to begin with Nirvana and their In Utero song Scentless Apprentice.

Lots of places to take this, but we’ll see where it takes us.
