Halloween festivities/Jack o lanterns?

Well, the lions barely made it into October let alone Halloween, which is usually my barometer for how much I should emotionally invest in the team each year. Thankfully, they got my disappointment done early and out of the way, so now I can kick back, watch and not care, but also enjoy all the other things life has to offer!

In particular, Halloween! My personal favorite holiday. And I enjoy carving pumpkins until I’ve done about 6-8 of them, then I get lazy. But I do it for the pumpkin seeds.

But making jack o lanterns is a yearly thing I do, I’m not great but as an artist my favorite medium is squash. Y’all carved anything this year? Or have any other fun Halloween activities? Share it all!

These are some I did back in 2016, I don’t have quite the patience I did then… but I make a point to make a yearly Nirvana pumpkin, because, well, yeah…

I always preferred The Smashing Pumpkins over Nirvana myself!

Haha I’m kidding, I just couldn’t resist that terrible joke. Nirvana was way better, not even close.

Those pumpkins look amazing brother! I would cut my finger off if I tried to do anything even close to that skill level.

Favorite Nirvana song… Lithium, which is fitting being a Lions fan.

Hahaha I like Smashing Pumpkins too! Siamese dream I listened to a ton. Side note, Courtney love apparently had an affair with Billy corgan while with Kurt cobain…

Anyway whatever, so long ago I can’t believe it’s been 30 years.

My favorite nirvana song is School, because it rocks and it’s so simple… the lyrics are 3 lines, and it rocks your socks off.

Favorite album is In Utero. Favorite pumpkins album is probably still Siamese dream then Melancholy (I was a child of the 90s what can I say) but both Gish and Pisces Iscariot are really cool too

Edit: when they played Lithium on MTV after pretending to play Rape Me, and Krist Noveselic threw his bass in the air and knocked himself out… classic.

I can’t imagine what the next “Nirvana” would sound or look like… they were truly one of a kind…

This video is cool. They were supposed to play Lithium… but played Territorial Pissings instead.

Just because you’re paranoid, don’t mean they’re not after you… (he changed that line in this performance)

Anyone willing to sleep with Courtney has done way too many hard drugs, go back, u went too far. Do not pass go!

School, good tune… maybe 1987 or 88? Was Sliver on that same album… I listened to that song way too many times in my youth.

School was on Bleach, then Sliver was on Incesticide, but it was a b-side from around the same time as bleach. Incesticide was basically a compilation album of songs they recorded between bleach and nevermind I think.

The music video for sliver has Dave Grohl playing drums but I think the actual recording of it was another drummer before him, but I’m not positive about that. I love sliver. One of my other favorites. And Dive!
