WATCH: Courtney Love @ Trinity College
A typically electric interview with one of rock's most controversial figures...
The hellraising Courtney Love was in town earlier this week at the invitation of Trinity College's Philosophical Society who made the former Hole singer an honorary patron. Love attended two semesters at the college in the early 1980s.
While in Ireland, Love also photographed Toyah Wilcox, Horslips and The Pretenders exclusively for Hot Press. Keen to catch up with a former colleague, we sent roving reporter Craig Fitzpatrick along to capture the goings-on.
On the agenda was Courtney's memories of living in Ireland and searching for her father, the origin of the Cobain name, aran sweaters, strange encounters, basketball with Charlie Sheen, Sean Penn, Rob Lowe and others, thoughts on U2 and much more besides. As you might expect, it's pretty electric stuff. Watch all six parts below.
