Hundreds of things belonging to rock ‘n' roll musicians will be offered to the public at an auction later this month. Julien’s Auctions is holding the event on May 21 at Hard Rock Caf in New York City. The company is based in California and specializes in selling objects from or related to the entertainment industry. Music lovers might be interested in a document containing song lyrics handwritten by John Lennon. Also available for sale is a note from Kurt Cobain, former frontman of the rock group Nirvana. In it, he discussed the possibility of the band breaking up. Cobain expressed anger about a magazine report about him and his wife, rocker Courtney Love. The 1992 Vanity Fair story said that the two were using drugs during Love’s pregnancy. I love my wife and soon to be new daughter too much to let everyones low opinions of us ruin our lives together, he wrote. Cobain killed himself in 1994 and Nirvana broke up.
