In Flight Nirvana
For charity, Krist Novoselic, former bassist with seminal (God, do you have any idea how long I've wanted to use that word in a blog???) grunge band Nirvana, is auctioning off his services as a pilot for a one day excusion on a cesna. Hmmmm . . . aging rock star flying me in a tin can that could go down at any moment? Sounds like fun! Wawasworld jumped into his what if machine to see what it would be like if I won that auction:
(Climbing on the cesna with Krist Novoselic greeting me)
Wawasworld: Oh my God, Oh my God . . . It's Krist Novoselic! You were in . . . can't breathe . . . Nirvana.
Krist Novoselic: That's right . . . and I'll be your pilot today
Wawasworld: Wow! This is so great . . . you're like my 3rd favorite member of Nirvana!!!!!
Krist Novoselic: Um . . . there were only 3 of us
Wawasworld: Not true! Pat Smear was also a member
Krist Novoselic: Well, not officially . . .
Wawasworld: Well, Courtney Love said the same thing about you . . . (awkward laugh, followed by awkward silence) So . . . uh . . . you remember that time at the MTV music awards?
Krist Novoselic: Which time?
Wawasworld: When you threw the bass up in the air and it hit you in the head?
Krist Novoselic: Um . . . yeah?
Wawasworld: That was GREAT! Can we reenact that scene today when we land? Huh, Huh, Can we?????
Krist Novoselic: I'm only here to to share the wonders of aviation and remind you to be careful during the most dangerous phase of flight – the drive to and from the airport
Wawasworld: Um . . . I'd rather do the guitar thing
Krist Novoselic: No
Wawasworld: What the hell happened to you? You used to be so cool! And look at you now . . . hocking flights on a tin can that David Bowie floated around in the video for "Space Oddity"
Krist Novoselic: Do you still want to fly?
Wawasworld: Nah . . . But could you autograph my New Nirvana boxset??????
