Bassist becomes a member of the Special Forces

[kickingfrog]

Iteresting read on a Sunday morning.

Here's a snippet from the attached article:

Jason Everman has the unique distinction of being the guy who was kicked out of Nirvana and Soundgarden, two rock bands that would sell roughly 100 million records combined. At 26, he wasn’t just Pete Best, the guy the Beatles left behind. He was Pete Best twice.

Then again, he wasn’t remotely. What Everman did afterward put him far outside the category of rock’n’roll footnote. He became an elite member of the U.S. Army Special Forces, one of those bearded guys riding around on horseback in Afghanistan fighting the Taliban.

my dad sent me this article a couple days ago, really cool to read through if you haven't yet. Especially if you love nirvana and soundgarden like me.
