In the event you’re a wealthy one that’s been questioning while you’d lastly be capable to exhibit your wealth by buying locks of Kurt Cobain’s hair, nicely, you’re a creep. That mentioned, apparently, you’re a fortunate creep. As of at present, six locks of the Nirvana legend’s hair will likely be accessible as (hopefully) the weirdest lot in Iconic Auctions’ “The Superb Music Public sale (Vol. I).” The public sale begins tonight (Might 6) at 5 pm PT / 8 pm ET and concludes on Might 15.

Now look, there are many different completely affordable objects for individuals to blow an excessive amount of cash on, together with all kinds of signed stuff from the Beatles, Bob Dylan, and different rockers and rappers mainstream sufficient to finish up on an public sale web site. Hell, there are even some much less loopy Nirvana choices, like certainly one of Cobain’s private amps and a Stratocaster signed by all three of them.

Extra from SPIN:

As for the story of the hair itself, it’s apparently the remnants of a haircut in Birmingham, England again in October 1989. It was lower by Cobain’s buddy Tessa Osbourne throughout the Bleach tour, handed to Seattle artist Nicole DePolo, and comes with all kinds of photographs and such for authentication functions. I suppose in the event you’re going to spend a small fortune on some hair, it’s good to know you’re a minimum of getting the actual deal.

Maybe probably the most startling factor about this whole story is that it’s not even the primary time Cobain’s hair was set to be bought at public sale, however the public sale home didn’t really undergo with it final time. Meaning there’s likelihood that no matter creepy fan/scientist/witch/warlock wins this public sale has been ready for six years since their final alternative fell by.

Capitalism, man.
