Nirvana’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame performance was fronted by four amazing female musicians: Joan Jett (who sang “Smells Like Teen Spirit“),Kim Gordon (“Aneurysm“), Annie Clark of St. Vincent (“Lithium“), and Lorde(closing it out with “All Apologies“). Kurt Cobain is irreplaceable to me, but this choice was the best, and, really, the only way to honor a man who once said, “I like the comfort in knowing that women are the only future of rock & roll.”
