  • In 2023, I visited Seattle, Washington in order to collect footage for my Layne Staley documentary. This is a few of the spots I visited and the mostly raw and uncut footage. I visited the homes of Kurt Cobain, Layne Staley, Mark Lanegan, Kristen Pfaff, Aberdeen and more.

    I’m from Aberdeen! Born & raised, still live here too. It’s cool to see other people come from far away to visit our town for Kurt. Nobody here cares about Kurt or the memorial, so it’s nice to see people who do. I’m a big nirvana fan myself ❤

      I visited Aberdeen for the first and so far the only time in my life back in 2018. I embarrassingly sobbed at Kurt's memorial by the bridge. Didn't expect to do that. I turned 38 that year so I was only 14 when Kurt died and had wanted to visit ever since then. To finally be there and to see his childhood home and for so many years being so hung up on whether he commited suicide or was murdered, to finally be there just hit me hard. In that moment it really didn't matter. That was someone who achieved their life's dream, a dream that so many others will never achieve and it cost him his life. He either felt so bad and so defeated that he ended his own, or there were snakes all around him. Either way it's really sad and my heart ached for him.

      Hi. Im a ex H. addict myself, been in methadone programme since 2009.. Im from Europe and we got a lot of opiods circulating everywhere. I can smell the streets just looking at the picture/movies from Seattle; cold and unforgiving. Lonely.. I doubt the H. epidemic is far from over, sadly. If youve been shooting H for +10 years, you know what hassle and pain an opiod addict goes thru, and what negative impact it makes in life. Stay safe and God bless you

    I stayed at the Westin Excelsior in Rome for a few nights back in early 09. We stayed in suite 541, which a staff member later told me that’s where Kurt od’d. Apparently he was on the shower floor when EMS arrived. It was a little strange using that shower knowing that…
    Other than that, it’s exceptionally beautiful, but very expensive.

But the summer months are sunny and warm and there are all kinds of outdoor festivals and events. It's a much "happier" place during the summer.

Everyone was going crazy “partying,” but Layne looked sickly. First & last (in my face) heroin addict experience. Had to be lifted out. My hip bone was being destroyed against plywood, since in front. Incredible concert though! I healed up, but got cancer in that area yrs later. 😅

      It was trash in the 80s compared to the 50s. From a regular blue collar family point of view, Cobain represented Seattle's decline.

    Jesus is the way, the truth, the life. No one comes to the father but through him. No man made religions required.
