Kurt Cobain: Nirvana (2) Unused Concert Tickets for Dublin's RDS Simmonscourt (April 8, 1994) - The Date Cobain's Body Was Found Scarce, unused pair of ‘complimentary’ tickets for Nirvana’s scheduled concert at the RDS Simmonscourt Pavilion in Dublin, Ireland, on April 8, 1994, a canceled show slated to be the final date of the In Utero UK tour. The ‘general admission’ tickets, 6.25 x 6, are numbered “137” and “138” and list the name “Nirvana” in the upper corners. In fine condition, with light paperclip impressions. A month earlier, on March 4, 1994, Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain was hospitalized in Rome following an overdose of benzos and alcohol. His management agency said that the overdose was accidental and that he was suffering from influenza and fatigue. However, Cobain's wife, Courtney Love, later confirmed that the overdose had been a suicide attempt: 'He took 50 pills. He probably forgot how many he took. But there was a definite suicidal urge, to be gobbling and gobbling and gobbling.' The incident led to the cancellation of the rest of Nirvana's European tour. On April 8th, the date of this annulled Dublin show, Cobain's body was found at his home on Lake Washington Boulevard in Seattle, Washington; forensic investigators and a coroner later determined that Cobain had died on April 5th, three days before the discovery of his body, and confirmed his death as a suicide.
