First of all, it is Meat Puppets song to begin with... Whatever the f they want to do with the song is right. Second nothing is f'ed up with the song, i am not sure what you think "sucked ass".

Well, Kurt couldn't sing it for a start. Talk about straining his voice...

But if I wanted to see the the Meat Puppets I would, I just got annoyed that Kurt & Co decided to play some mediocre Meat Puppets songs instead of their own far superior material.

Let's face it, if it wasn't for the Unplugged album, no-one would have even heard of the Meat Puppets...

I'm sorry you don't like the meatpuppets, but they were quite popular before Kurt Cobain & Nirvana decided to cover their song. Yes many more people were exposed to them becasue of that but as far as smaller bands who aren't out whoring themselves out go the Meatpuppets were doign pretty good.

I listen to my meatpuppet albums more then i listen to my nirvana albums thats for sure.

Regardless, they got popular from that song. Not from playing with Nirvana. Hell, there are still people that don't even know those are Meat Puppets songs on the Unplugged album. They're all "woohoo, that's an awesome nirvana song Lake Of Fire, yeah!" You can find em in shitty bars all across america. Sometimes when they're not looking, I steal one of their smokes.

Meat Puppets II and Up on the Sun are way better than anything Nirvana ever did.
