Level 6 · 9 mo agoBIC did not start producing disposable lighters until 1973 Agreed. Hendrix died in 1970. Impossible for him to have one. ETA: Cobain had a pink Bic.

Level 4 · 8 mo agoThe white lighter myth is nonsense. Bic didn't even produce them until 1973 so the big 60s icons couldn't have had them. Police reports actually confirmed Cobain had pink lighters at the scene.
