Kurt Cobain ‘Just Loved Carrickmore’ Says Biographer

On the 30th anniversary of his untimely death, Kurt Cobain’s official biographer Billy Smiley has revealed that Carrickmore’s inability to win the senior championship every year inspired most of his angst-ridden songs.

Cobain, who wanted to visit the graveyard in Carrickmore which is the final resting place for several of Kurt’s Irish ancestors, developed a sharp dislike for their rivals Errigal Ciaran and once arrived late to an unplugged MTV concert as he was listening to the final between the two rivals on the wireless.

Smiley added:

“Jesus, he hated Peter Canavan. And he was a mad fan of Seamus McCallan. The song, Smells Like Teen Spirit, was named in honour of Seamie who had a great game for Carrickmore minors in the late 80s and Cobain read about it. He just loved Carrickmore.”

Cobain had plans to see McCallan in action in the 1994 Ulster final.

In other news, the Ulster Council has apologised for tarmacking the whole of the Coalisland Canal instead of the towpath.
