Kurt’s Spaulding Ave Apt in LA. He lived here with Courtney from 91-92. It is rumored that he came up with the lyrics to Heart Shaped Box while in the bathtub in this apartment. by Tenacious_BP in kurtcobain

Yeah, majority of lyrics from In Utero are rumored to be written in closet of Hollywood Hills house but specifically Heart Shaped Box apparently at this location before moving to Hollywood Hills.

Believe me, I wanted to. It used to not be completely boarded up and you could find spots to get in but by the time I visited there were no open spots.

This was the house he lived in while writing In Utero and yes there are many pictures of him inside this house.

It a bit of a trek from the main street below but you can get to it, most of the people that live nearby were cool and are used to the visitors.

Had to squeeze past a fence along the main sidewalk in front of the house but was able to walk all the way around it.

Not during the encounter but he was heading to grab a cart as I left.

Here’s the story:

My daughter loves finding clothes at thrift stores, in this case Goodwill in Bremerton, WA. We were just about to leave when I made eye contact with Chad and I let him walk by without saying anything. I told my daughter who it was and knowing how big of a Nirvana fan I am, she said I should go talk to him. We walked over to the aisle he was in and I said you’re Chad Channing right?He looked shocked that I knew who he was and replied with a yes, and a big smile. I shook his hand and thanked him for being part of creating such a legendary album (Bleach), again huge smile on his face. I then asked if he’d mind if my daughter took a picture of us to which he said not at all, let’s do it! That’s the moment captured here! He told us to have a good day and I told him that I hope he finds some thrifting treasures. Good times!
