In an interview with BBC Radio 1, Dave Grohl said he always knew that his former Nirvana bandmate Kurt Cobain wasn't destined to live a full life. The drummer said he prepared himself for an incident like Cobain's suicide back in 1994.
"There are some people that you meet in life that you just know that they are not going to live to be a 100 years old," he said. "In some ways, you kind of prepare yourself emotionally for that to be a reality."

"It was a terrible surprise," he said. "It was probably the worst thing that has happened to me in my life. I remember the day after that I woke up and I was heartbroken that he was gone. I just felt like, 'OK, so I get to wake up today and have another day and he doesn't'."
