He Became A Janitor
Before he went on to shape grunge music as a genre that we know it to be today, Kurt Cobain was working a very simple job – as a janitor. It was actually during the time that he was employed as a school janitor that Krist Novoselic met Cobain, and Novoselic was later to be the band’s bassist. In a way, cleaning toilets was how Cobain managed to accumulate the funds to release his demo, unknowingly opening the door to his later fame. The funny thing was that those who knew Cobain described him as somebody who wouldn’t even clean up after himself, yet there he was, making money as a janitor!
