Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:44pm
coelacanth:

There's a local 3-piece band near me who-at least every halloween- changes their name to "nirvanapaltz" and plays practically every nirvana song there is...probably more accurate to the studio versions than Nirvana ever pulled off. (maybe cuz none of them drinks much) ...Those who like nirvana's less pop songs especially may find it's worth travelling for.

i love that nirvana song. one o the best

I like a big handful of their songs, but I don't think they made a whole album that holds together.

@Maestro: hmm, tricky. Sometimes a bit cool, a little below 20 degrees and possibly rainy. Sometimes the hottest month, so unending sun and over 30 degrees. In other words: no idea yet. But probably quite nice and warm.

Well, 18-20 sounds nice indeed, and lots of sunlight is good. I spent the month of November 1992 in Helsinki and loved it then, so this should be good.
