THIS is the photo that made me accept that I’m old
Why this photo? Because the accordionist pictured above, who could easily be a stunt double for my father-in-law, is none other than Krist Novoselic, the former bassist for Nirvana, performing two years ago. Here he is in 2023 with Geddy Lee (I would love to hang out and jam…
