Everyone Is Pissed At Courtney!

Including her former bandmates!

Courtney Love has decided to resurrect her band, Hole, but didn't ask former bassist, Melissa Auf Der Maur, to join! The singer formerly had a dispute with Eric Erlandson, but hinted that it had ended.

And it better have! Courtney signed a contract that she could not use the name Hole unless it included him.

But, Auf Der Maur, recently discovered that dates have been booked in North America and Europe without her. She said:

"I want to make it clear that I have nothing to do with this series of concerts. Honestly, I'm a little surprised by this turn of events.

I am disappointed that they are going to jeopardise a real Hole reunion, which I think would be great for fans and fun for us, the band. (Love is) really is jeopardizing the Hole reunion, which is not impossible, but it will be if this continues."

Ha. Don't hold your breath!

      Melissa Auf Der Maur is too good for Hole anyway. She deserves better than to be in a band with that unprofessional, coked-up hot mess Courtney Love.

      I KNEW Courtney, in a last ditch effort to get some cash for her ongoing drug habit, would try and reform Hole. I saw her perform in 99, long after their prime and she was just awful! Rambling incoherent drunk, flashing her tits and berating the crowd. That was 10 yrs ago….imagine now!

      wtf is wrong with her, she should be concentrating on getting frances back, not resurrecting her band.
      I hate her. If Kurt hadn't met her, he'd still be around. Fucking bitch!.

    5. 5

      Too much of a mess to discuss. Can't the State of NY just take her to Bellevue Hospital Center, NYC ?!?!



    6. 6

      Hole fans? are you kidding me…



    7. 7

      come on, melissa auf der whatever- hole songs are so simple, she was just playing 3 or 4 notes anyway- she can be replaced, lmao.

      this SCREAMS of more drug abuse. Irrational, compulsive, etc behavior… Please see Heidi Flies…. Drugs are ruining a portion of our society. To take people like Courtney Love or Dennis Rodman or countless others seriously is insane. These people are not living in reality. Like the whole debacle between her and her daughter. That is insane behavior… She needs to get help…



    9. 9

      Hole is a great band.



    10. 10

      It's not like songs are hard to perform. They were 3-4 cords, a kid could play this. As for the singing… that's another story haha

      Who cares. I've never heard of them anyway.



    14. 14

      Courtney DID ask Melissa to be in the new version of the band, but she declined. Melissa was never even an original member of the band. She was the 5th bass player the band had. She replaced someone who died.



    15. 15

      Re: LizardKinG – Hole have sold 5 million albums in the US alone. And their first comeback gig in February this year in London sold out in under 5 minutes. So yes, Hole has plenty of fans.



    16. 16

      live through this was a pretty awesome cd…and that's about it



    17. 17

      Makes no sense. I love Melissa Auf der Maur, but she is not an original member of Hole and she is about to release her second solo album. Why would she care if she was asked to rejoin Hole? Doubt this is true.



    18. 18

      omg this broad has got to go!! she must need more drug money so she is going for that whole reunion thing.. really?? sad



    19. 19

      but she's not an original member. love her, but come on. deal with it. now…i need to find tickets for this.

      Yeah, Hole bass-lines aren't rocket science, but Melissa AdM's bass work on celebrity skin was far more than just a few notes. She has a really good ear, and the bass + her backup vocals were impeccable - and really lifted the songs - and were integral to that album achieving a far more polished sound. (that and the fact Billy Corgan wrote most of it).

      The original bassist Kristen Pfaff was killed, probably by Eric Erlandson at the request of Courtney Love. It was ruled an "accidental overdose". Courtney has a trail of dead bodies behind her and that's no accident. Look into it.



    21. 21

      Re: Harry Jenkins Fan Club – First: Coo-coo!!! Second: Kristen Pfaff was NOT Hole's original bassist. Hole was already signed to Geffen when Pfaff came in. Third: If Courtney Love was having people murdered and getting away with it (she can't even type a coherent sentence) you think that Melissa Auf der Maur would be crying about not having enough time to let Courtney kill her? Don't think so. Kristen Pfaff was addicted to heroin. Just because she went to rehab and was clean for a little bit doesn't mean she didn't binge and overdose all by herself.

      I don't like Courtney, I think her best "work" was written by Kurt and Billy Corgan, but that doesn't mean I'm gonna buy into some crackheaded conspiracy theory that she has people killed. If that was true, I think there would be a hell of a LOT more dead people, because I'm pretty sure more than half of the people who know her hate her.



    22. 22

      Oh Courtney!!!!



    23. 23

      Writing a riff or helping with a chord change is not what I would call "writing her music". Courtney is a lyricist, and has written every word since day one. Billy Corgan is a great musician, but a terrible lyricist, so there is no way in hell he wrote any of Courtneys lyrics. It's called a collaboration. If you are going to criticise Courtney for it, then you should criticise almost every musician.



    24. 24

      too bad they cant bring back original member Kristen Pfaff back. RIP.
      but i hope they get it all together, and everything works out for them. because Hole is a great frickin band. and i love Courtney no matter what



    25. 25

      Re: plerant2 – She has moderate guitar abilities - her lyrics are sub-par. I used to be a hole fan, but then I came to understand the difference between "good" and "bad". Just like Courtney herself, her lyrics have NO DEPTH…only the illusion of it. Also, it's hard to enjoy the music of a sociopath who offed Kurt and then has been milking his "suicide" for all it's worth ever since.



    26. 26

      Re: vacantsea – google "justice for kurt".

      This is not a crackhead conspiracy theory - it's a failure of the investigating authorities to do their job. There are at least three dead people in Courtney's wake: Kurt, Kristen and "El Duce", and all dying under suspicious circumstances. I suggest you do a little research and engage your critical thinking skills. You may not come to the same conclusion I have, but this isn't lunatic fringe stuff - It's a SERIOUS allegation, with EVIDENCE to back it up.

      Perhaps you should ask yourself why Courtney has not sued any of the proponents of this theory, when she sues anyone who looks at her funny? You know when it comes to defamation, the truth is the ultimate defense.

      But you're right on the original bassist thing. Touche.



    27. 27

      over brightend pictures are FAIL.



    28. 28

      Re: Harry Jenkins Fan Club – "her lyrics have NO DEPTH…only the illusion of it" LOL. Please. My favourite lyricists in the world are Dylan, L. Cohen, Elvis Costello, Alex Chilton, Stevie Nicks, and yes Courtney Love. Just because you say "her lyrics have no depth" doesn't make it fact. And stfu up about those CRACKPOT theories. There is no evidence. It's all circumstantial. And you are a tool if you believe it.



    29. 29

      Re: plerant2 – No, me saying it doesn't make it so. The fact that she's a sociopath with the depth of a puddle and lyrics to match makes it so. The words "lame and derivative" come to mind when describing her lyrical skills.
      .
      And there's plenty of evidence. Try doing some research. The PI she hired to "find Kurt" is one of the main proponents. Her own dad thinks she did it. The woman is a cancer on this world and a murderer to boot!
      .
      And I'll STFU when I want to, not because some delusional Courtney fan thinks I should.

      .
      NOT a crackpot theory. If it were, they'd have been sued a thousand times over already. I don't expect anyone to agree, but calling it a crackpot theory without actually looking at the TONNE of evidence is just plain lazy, and doesn't say much for your cognitive capacity.
      .
      The police investigation was botched - and the blood of the hundreds of "copycat" suicides will forever be on Courtney's hands.
