Krist is in the process of writing a book!
The book will be one part memoir, one part political platform, the bass player
of Nirvana -- the most heralded and influential rock band of the past fifteen
years -- tells the story of his own musical and political coming-of-age. From
his relationship to Kurt Cobain to his evolution as a political activist, Novoselic's
passion, intelligence, and integrity come shining through in this moving and
inspirational book. With the exception of Kurt Cobain's posthumously released
journals, this is the first book by a founding member of the legendary Nirvana.

Krist Novoselic was present
in Vancouver for two benefit rock concerts hosted by Music for America (an organization
aiming to get more young people to vote). "Besides music, the concerts
featured appearances by former Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic, U.S. Rep. Brian
Baird, and state attorney general and gubernatorial candidate Christine Gregoire.
The latest on Krist Novoselic's
political activities: "Grunge-rock pioneer Krist Novoselic has decided
against running for lieutenant governor, saying he wants to stay involved in
progressive politics but 'the whole thing about running a campaign and being
a public servant isn't the way to do it.' Instead, one of the founding members
of Nirvana will concentrate on his work with Music for America, a group working
to boost voter participation among young people. He also will keep up his efforts
for election reform." Story courtesy of The Seattle Times. Read the complete

The Washington newspaper
Chinook Observer recently did a lengthy interview with Krist Novoselic, talking
about music, politics and everything in between.
"The former bassist
from Nirvana, Krist Novoselic, will be present at a free concert in Longview
next Friday that aims to get young people registered to vote. 'I think Democracy
is everybody's business,' said Novoselic, who grew up near Aberdeen and lives
on the Southwest Washington coast. 'It's such an exciting year, and there's
so much going on in our nation, in our world, and in our state.' The event,
which will be held at the former Boardroom skate park on Commerce Avenue is
part of 'Music for America.' It's a series of shows and voter registration drives
that will be held across the country this spring and summer. The goal is to
get 1 million people between the ages of 18 and 35 registered to vote by Oct.
14. U.S. Rep. Brian Baird, D-Vancouver, also is expected to attend the Longview
event, which will be held the day before the Washington caucus. Novoselic, 38,
said he started getting involved with voter registration drives 10 years ago.
He came to Longview for a similar concert in 1998. He said he was disappointed
in low voter turnout in the 2003 elections. Although registered voters in Washington
typically have a higher participation rate than the national average, fewer
than half of them voted less fall." Story courtesy of The Daily News. The
event takes place at 8.30 PM this Friday on 1433 Commerce Ave. in Longview,
WA. And, please, for the love of God - VOTE if you can! I don't live in the
US but I think it's a disgrace to the democratic system that the voter turnout
was so low in the last US Presidential elections. It's bad enough that Bush
stole the election. VOTE!
