While browsing around on wikipedia I ended up on the Nevermind page. I guess Nirvana tried to use underwater birth shots, but the people that owned them wanted over $7000 US for them per year. Eventually they paid Spencer Elden’s parents $200 total for the shot of him. The deal was Kurt and Courtney where suppose to have dinner with him when he was older (guessing this didn’t happen as he is only 15 or something now.

Anyhow just thought it would be odd to be able to say you where on the cover of nevermind, but yet have the most crazy bathtub picture in the world mass produced.

I actually found the interview this image is from on youtube (they don’t need a link). The kid actually says something to the effect of “ya I’m Nirvana”. Take your crooked independent hat and go home! Nevermind was not even the greatest Nirvana album. In his defense if I was on the cover of nevermind it would be the highlight of my life.. I guess it would play strange things on your mind, but the kid has to get grounded at some point..

I sense headlines in the future where this person dies and they quote this.. “He was on the cover of nevermind”. Let him have his fun, cause even at the end it is going to be noted that he was on the cover. ;)
