This day in music history.

June 16, 1994, Kristen Pfaff, bass player with Hole was found dead in her bathtub. Although she had recently gone through re-hab the cause of death was heroin overdose, syringes and other drug paraphernalia were found scattered around the room. Born May 26, 1967 Kristen was raised in Buffalo, New York and after attending college in Europe and Boston she eventually moved to Minneapolis to attend university. While in Minneapolis she put together her fist real band called Janitor Joe. At the request of Courtney love, Kristen joined Hole in 1993 and almost immediately became a junky. She had quit Hole just days before her death and was planning a move back to Minneapolis, a U-Haul truck was parked outside packed with all her possessions.
Asking For It by Hole
Every time that I sell myself to you
I feel a little bit cheaper than I need to
I will tear the petals off of you
Rose red, I will make you tell the truth
Was she asking for it?
Was she asking nice?
If she was asking for it
Did she ask you twice?
Every time that I stare into the sun
Angel dust and my dress just comes undone
Every time that I stare into the sun
Be a model or just look like one
Wild eye rot gut do me in
Do you think you can make me do it again?
Was she asking for it?
Was she asking nice?
If she was asking for it
Did she ask you twice?
If you live through this with me
I swear that I would die for you
And if you live through this with me
I swear that I would die for you
Was she asking for it?
Was she asking nice?
If she was asking for it
Did she ask you twice?...
