I lived in Kunming nearly the entire year of 1997.
At that time there was one Chinese friend whose Chinese name I perhaps never knew, but he went by the English name Kurt Cobain.

I bumped into Kurt down by YunDa in 2001 when I rolled through.

Is Kurt still around Kunming, anyone know?
He was talking about trying to start a bar called 千醉仙园 last we had talked.

He (and everyone else about that time) knew me as banjo Joe...
