A Denial the Death of Kurt Cobain the Seattle
A DENIAL THE DEATH OF KURT COBAIN THE SEATTLE POLIECE DEPARTMENT’S SUBSTANDARD INVESTIGATION & THE REPROCUSSIONS TO JUSTICE by BREE DONOVAN A Capstone Submitted to The Graduate School-Camden Rutgers, The State University, New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in Liberal Studies Under the direction of Dr. Joseph C. Schiavo and approved by _________________________________ Capstone Director _________________________________ Program Director Camden, New Jersey, December 2015 CAPSTONE ABSTRACT A Denial The Death of Kurt Cobain The Seattle Police Department’s Substandard Investigation & The Repercussions to Justice By: BREE DONOVAN Capstone Director: Dr. Joseph C. Schiavo Kurt Cobain (1967-1994) musician, artist songwriter, and founder of The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame band, Nirvana, was dubbed, “the voice of a generation”; a moniker he wore like his faded cardigan sweater, but with more than some distain. Cobain’s journey to the top of the Billboard charts was much more Dickensian than many of the generations of fans may realize. During his all too short life, Cobain struggled with physical illness, poverty, undiagnosed depression, a broken family, and the crippling isolation and loneliness brought on by drug addiction. Cobain may have shunned the idea of fame and fortune but like many struggling young musicians (who would become his peers) coming up in the blue collar, working class suburbs of Aberdeen and Tacoma Washington State, being ii on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine wasn’t a nightmare image. Cobain, with his unkempt blond hair, polarizing blue eyes, and fragile appearance is a modern-punk-rock Jesus; a model example of the modern-day hero.

But not before she agreed to take a ﬂ yer as an actress with a guest shot on the hit tele vi- sion sitcom Ugly Betty. It seemed like a harm- Aless diversion from all the drama and pressure in her life. She reasoned, how hard could it be to play herself? In the episode, Betty is dancing with her husband at their wedding when the couple is suddenly interrupted by Adele. Th ere is some harmless banter and the next thing we know Adele is up on stage singing the song “Right As Rain.” Adele realized that that kind of promotion in America was well worth the eﬀ ort, but would later acknowledge in Vogue that the Ugly Betty experience cured her of any future acting aspirations. “I can’t watch it.

One of rock’s most popular and successful artists, the multiplatinum- selling singer-songwriter is also one of rock’s best live performers. Now a Japanese television concert special from his latest world tour comes to America in a DVD+CD set Live At The Budokan (A&M/UME), released June 17, 2003, featuring a bonus CD, Adams’ first plugged-in live album since 1989.

The Nerve Interview: It Might Get Loud Director Davis Guggenheim | Nerve Entertainment 10/11/09 7:59 PM
The Nerve Interview: It Might Get Loud director Davis Guggenheim | Nerve Entertainment 10/11/09 7:59 PM PERSONALS | RSS | HELP | SITE MAP | ADVERTISE ON NERVE FEATURES ADVICE ENTERTAINMENT PHOTOGRAPHY BLOGS DATING CONFESSIONS 1 Aug 11th, 2009 With It Might Get Loud, director Davis Guggenheim wanted to tell the personal stories of three guitar legends from different generations: Jack White from the White Stripes, The Edge from U2, and Jimmy Page from Led Zeppelin. Guggenheim, who directed the 2007 global-warming doc An Inconvenient Truth, wanted to stay away from typical rock-documentary tactics. It Might Get Loud has no rock critics, no ex-girlfriends, and no narration. Instead Guggenheim focuses on why these three write and play the way they do and how they developed their personal styles. Guggenheim wanted the three to open up — and they did. Jimmy Page plays air guitar while listening to music that influenced him as a kid, Jack White writes an original song on camera, and The Edge talks about how he drives everyone crazy trying to get the music in his head to come out of the amps. The movie brings the three together on a soundstage to share stories, show one another their songs, and play. Nerve spoke with Guggenheim about the men behind the legends. — Emily Wilson You won an Oscar for An Inconvenient Truth. After that, why did you choose to do a movie about the electric guitar? I just make movies about people that fascinate me. The next one could be about an archeologist or I don’t know, a proctologist.

The Life & Near Death Story of Patty Schemel
REVIEWS "Describing the parabolic ups and downs of the career of Hole drummer Patty Schemel, tricked-up docu Hit So Hard features never-before-witnessed tour documentation recorded on Schemel's own Hi-8 camera, including her extended stay at the digs of band frontwoman Courtney Love just before Kurt Cobain's suicide. This recently recovered ace-in-the-Hole footage is supplemented by helmer P. David Ebersole's newly shot interviews, presented in split-screen or apportioned in brief bursts. Pic benefits from the percussionist's plainspokenness, and should attract grunge curiosity-seekers in theatrical and tube play." VARIETY "A raw, unflinching look at Schemel's hard-knock life." WALL STREET JOURNAL "Necessary viewing for any Hole fan. The footage was ample and intimate -- scenes of Schemel passed out in her hotel room after shooting heroin, Love moshing backstage at Lollapalooza with the Offspring's Dexter Holland and, most eerily, Love at home with Kurt Cobain and Frances Bean. It's heartbreaking." SPIN MAGAZINE "Hit So Hard links one milestone of Schemel’s survival to another with a caustic grace lent by the subject herself: Alcoholic at age 12. Out, tormented lesbian at 17. Junkie by her early 20s. On and off the wagon numerous times by her late 20s. A homeless, crack-addicted, music-industry exile by the end of the ’90s. It’s all there in the open, backed up with fascinating, never-before-seen archival footage featuring Love and her husband Kurt Cobain." MOVIELINE "This pull-no-punches portrait of the hell-and-back life of Patty Schemel is no ordinary rockumentary.

It debuted on their fourth studio album, Elephant, and was released by XL Recordings and V2 Records in March 2003 as the lead single, through 7-inch vinyl and CD formats. Written and produced by Jack White, the song consists of distorted vocals, a simple drum rhythm and a bass-like riff created by playing guitar through the step-change effect. The song was written in the charts of many countries, and its success contributed to the popularity of the White Stripes and the movement of the revival of garage rock. In addition to praising his riff and drumbeat, critics rated Seven Nation Army as one of the best songs of the 2000s decade. It won Best Rock Song at the 46th Annual Grammy Awards, and the music video for director Alex and Martin's song won Best Editing in a Video at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards. Seven Nation Army became a sporting anthem, usually appearing in audience chants, in which a series of o sounds or the name of an athlete are sung to the tune of a riff of a song.

Donald Trump and the White Stripes
1 Natalie Edwards IMC 452 - POV #2 Rewrite November 1, 2016 Trump and the White Stripes: Is it ethical for people, including presidential candidates, to use content without getting permission from the original artist? According to Kate Feldman from tHe New York Daily News, on Tuesday, October 4, two former band members were reunited after finding out that a video containing one of their songs was released to promote Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump’s campaign. As a result, controversy arose because these artists did not give Trump permission to use tHeir song, wHicH clearly and unetHically violates tHe artist’s rigHts and may be copyrigHt infringement. Jack and Meg WHite, former band members of tHe WHite Stripes, stated immediately that they are “disgusted” by tHe use of tHeir “Seven Nation Army” song in a Donald Trump campaign video (Feldman). On Facebook and Twitter, the White Stripes and Third Man Records, which is Jack White’s current record label, released a statement explaining that they are not affiliated witH Trump, and tHat tHey do not want Trump’s beliefs and actions to reflect tHe band itself. According to Carly Ledbetter from The Huffington Post, at first, it was unclear if the video was an official Trump campaign video. But, a spokesperson from Pitchfork stated that the video was actually a fan-made clip entitled “Trump TriumpHant.” The video was posted on YouTube by a user witH tHe account name of “God-Emperor Trump” (Ledbetter). THe now-deleted fan-video featured a series of Trump rally clips witH tHe song from tHe band’s 2003 “ElepHant” album playing in the background (Feldman).
