Apologetically, they followed up with phone interviews. Instead, bassist Krist Novoselic, who did offer a Beck’s and some Pepperidge Farm cookies, showed more interest in watching television, drummer David Grohl was polite but didn’t have much to say and vocalist/guitarist/songwriter Kurt Cobain-who sat at a desk facing a window-spent the greater part of his energy eating lunch and holding his very hungover head in his hands.
