No Blame To Grohl & Novoselic Over Cobain’s Likeness In “Guitar Hero” Video Game

Not that we didn’t already know, but Dave Grohl & Krist Novoselic had nothing to do with Kurt Cobain’s likeness ending up in Guitar Hero 5:

Activision is responding to queries regarding the usage of Kurt Cobain’s likeness in Guitar Hero 5 with the following statement “Guitar Hero secured the necessary licensing rights from the Cobain estate in a written agreement signed by Courtney Love to use Kurt Cobain’s likeness as a fully playable character in Guitar Hero® 5.”

Krist Novoselic and Dave Grohl, the two surviving members of Nirvana, have no say whatsoever in the usage of Kurt Cobain’s likeness.
