So basically this had nothing to do with Nirvana. I’m a fan of sonic youth so you didn’t have to click bait me like that, but jeez, have some authenticity.
She literally says that at the very beginning. …and it’s not disrespectful. Nirvana was on tour with Sonic Youth. Sonic Youth Was on tour with Nirvana. They were on tour together.
@@clicheguevara5282 She knows what happened… Vice is just being sensationalist. Sonic Youth took lots of bands on tour and Nirvana was just one of them
But... I'm pretty sure Nirvana did a tour with Tad in late 1989 in Europe. Video title feels like clickbait. Anyways, always nice to hear from Kim Gordon.
@@weSteh the reason why the video title feels like clickbait is because it claims something she didn't even mention. Sonic Youth did have Nirvana along for that summer 91 tour. The doc "1991: The Year Punk Broke" covers that (typically it's uploaded on this site unless it happens to be struck down at the moment), and it's a really good watch. But yeah, Vice is simply off the mark with the video title.
@@gregdahlen4375 they mostly showed scenes of sonic youth and nirvana hanging out and performing on tour mostly in Europe. SY were basically the cooler older siblings to Nirvana.
Stop with the click bait titles. Sonic Youth was huge in the underground in the late 80s and the early 90s and they were the heroes of Nirvana. Not the other way around!! 😂
Kim looks great! It was cool hearing her elaborate on a couple stories I just read im Thurston's book (and Kim's book a few years earlier). Long live Kim and Sonic Youth!
"1991: The Year Punk Broke" is a must see. I went to a Sonic Youth show here in Detroit and was so close I touched Kim's boots for the hell of it. They weren't "Dirty Boots" by any means
Click-baity title. More like 'Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth talks about tour life'. This has nothing to do with Nirvana, she talked about Neil Young way more. Now I remember why I haven't been watching Vice for years
So on Nirvana's SECOND European tour (first being in 89), they open for Sonic Youth - one aspect of a wider talk about Sonic Youth moments. Did someone listen to the first 20 seconds of this while texting and thinking about lunch, then decide to just title it? This some clueless journalism.
hell yea!! Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, Temple of the Dog!! I still play that Alice in Chains unplugged from 1996. I think that show & the Nirvana were the top 2 mtv unplugged-
Kim wasn't 'on' Nirvana's first European tour -Sonic Youth brought Nirvana to Europe for their first European tour as full shown in the documentary '1991 The Year Punk Broke'. Splitting hairs sure - but a poor headline Vice.
I’m as likely to watch a video about Sonic Youth as I am one about Nirvana. I just don’t appreciate being led to believe it’s about one thing when it’s actually about something else.
Nice video about Kim Gordon's experiences of touring. But let's be honest, this has almost nothing to do with Nirvana. FYI - Nirvana's first European tour was in 1989.
The title is so condescending towards Kim Gordon and the band Sonic Youth who had as much of an influence on music and culture in the early '90s as Nirvana!
So basically this had nothing to do with Nirvana.

Vice has fallen off
she doesnt even talk about nirvana for more than a 1min ... 50 sec is all. lol
100%
Never drink and drive. Never text and drive. Stay safe out there...for yourself and OTHERS on the road! Thanks
@@endlessnameless6494 yeah Vice, don't drink and post
This is Kim Gordon of sonic youth. Sonic youth. Sonic youth who brought nirvana on tour with THEM. Kim Gordon.
So she is from Sonic Youth?? Ok ok
@@sickofsellinsmth I think she's from Nirvana
@@sickofsellinsmth
*She was a groupie of Nirvana*
Seems alot more like "The Time Sonic Youth went on Tour with Neil Young"
Fr…. Was hoping for a good kurt story or something 👎🏼
A lot*
Never drink and drive. Never text and drive. Stay safe out there...for yourself and OTHERS on the road! Thanks
Titles disrespectful sonic youth brought nirvana on that tour 💯
She literally says that at the very beginning. …and it’s not disrespectful. Nirvana was on tour with Sonic Youth. Sonic Youth Was on tour with Nirvana. They were on tour together.
@@clicheguevara5282 She knows what happened… Vice is just being sensationalist. Sonic Youth took lots of bands on tour and Nirvana was just one of them
But it was Nirvana's first European tour.
Also it wasn't the first European tour, they toured with tad and did a big sub pop fest in London in 89.
@@stewartmitchell8007 💯
SHE'S 71????????????? INSANE
@@ninblau2095 She’s almost 10 years older than the rest of Sonic Youth
@@vonslagle
Well... Thurston is 66.
.
Wow she was old then
Neal freaking Yung
I thought she was 70
Honestly just watch the 1991 The Year Punk Broke movie. It is ESSENTIAL viewing for any fan of Nirvana, Sonic Youth or Dinosaur Jr.
It is.
It's an exceptionally consistent and entertaining movie even if you're not a fan of them
Nirvana was on HER tour.
Nah, Sonic Youth were bigger than Nirvana at the time. In fact if it weren't for Sonic Youth the Nirvana story would have been much different.
@@slowdivr13 that’s exactly what she’s implying
Nirvana toured Europe in 1989. We knew who they were before they returned with Sonic Youth.
you know what we give you okay 🇺🇸
But... I'm pretty sure Nirvana did a tour with Tad in late 1989 in Europe. Video title feels like clickbait. Anyways, always nice to hear from Kim Gordon.
even if she is full of it ?

She's so rad, love her storytelling
Sonic youth brought nirvana on tour, not the other way around, Kurt looked up to sonic youth.
The comedy of you disrespecting Kim Gordon. Bruh Sonic Youth are the Goats.
TRIVIUM is better
She spoke about nirvana for less than one minute. Nice clickbait title.
rather hear about NY anyways.
Sloppy title. Nirvana toured Europe in 1989 and an UK tour in 1990, 1991was the second European tour for them or third if you count the UK tour.
She could front Nirvana now and Kurt would probably love it. Great video!
1991: The Year Punk Broke documents the bond Sonic Youth shared with Nirvana
what was the bond?
@@gregdahlen4375 they mostly showed scenes of sonic youth and nirvana hanging out and performing on tour mostly in Europe.
SY were basically the cooler older siblings to Nirvana.
Most of the internet only knows Kim for being "mean" to Nardwuar which is so unfortunate because Sonic youth was great

Kim looks great! It was cool hearing her elaborate on a couple stories I just read im Thurston's book (and Kim's book a few years earlier). Long live Kim and Sonic Youth!
There’s a book about Nirvana’s first UK tour called “Nirvana: A Tour Diary”.
Worth a read!
Sonic Youth mastered moving between order and disorder
It's pretty easy to figure out by using any internet search engine that Nirvana's first European tour was in 1989; not 1991.
"1991: The Year Punk Broke" is a must see. I went to a Sonic Youth show here in Detroit and was so close I touched Kim's boots for the hell of it. They weren't "Dirty Boots" by any means
Biker-slash-wine-connoisseur is my new favorite character description.
Click-baity title. More like 'Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth talks about tour life'. This has nothing to do with Nirvana, she talked about Neil Young way more. Now I remember why I haven't been watching Vice for years
You also could have just said she was Kim Gordon in the title but ok
You can hear Sonic Youth's "She's In A Bad Mood" in the Middle Eight of NIRVANA's "Drain You". Probably picked it up on that tour.
NOV 38 1991. It appears Vice is in Fantasy Land
She looks so shinny and radiant, young for ever
Sonic Youth is a legend. Kim is a legend.
THE MOTHER❤
She was in one of the greatest bands ever too. Also she was on The Simpsons.
there probably wouldn't be a nirvana without sonic youth
Before Nirvana was even a household name they toured with Sonic Youth.
Go watch 1991 The Year Punk Broke, it’s a document to a moment in time.
wrong title. you guys know this is a legend talking about her story no?
Not nirvana's first European tour. That was in 1989 with the band TAD
it was not nirvanas first european tour. their first tour in europe was in the bleach-time with TAD.
Kim Gordon I love you!!! Queen of rock and roll 🤘🏻
This title is entirely inaccurate. Nirvana’s first European tour was a co-headlining tour with Sub Pop labelmates, TAD, in fall/winter 1989.
1:21 That's Teresa Nervosa from Butthole Surfers lol
Saw Nirvana in Italy in 1989 ,they were on tour with Tad, 2 bands in a van . go figure.
Kim Gordon has a great book about her life called Girl in a Band. Just picked it up. Check it out if you are a fan of Sonic Youth.
Good stuff. More plz
Song at 0:52 ?
Nirvanas first EU tour was 89...
Vice so insecure they need to use clickbait now 😂😂
I still wouldve watched it if you just said sonic youth brought nirvana on tour.
awesome stories!
She’s amazing.
appreciating the close relationship between sonic youth and nirvana..... this has a sliver to do with nirvana
0:56 SOOO THATS HOW THE CIA ENTERED THE CHAT
I had this tour on vhs
that’s literally history
I got to see them on in utero tour 😊
Sonic youth opening for Neil young is a weird thought
1991 tour was NOT Nirvana's first European tour
She's an icon ❤
This is funny. I love both bands and have seen Neil and Sonic Youth. Can't win em all....
WRONG - Nirvana was on a European Tour with Tad 1989.
Always innovative and constantly evolving, the original Kool Thing, Kim Gordon.
tell it like it is
Word up!
Hard to split Kim Gordon and Kim Deal in the battle of the worlds coolest person.
No. Sonic Youth was not on their tour, Nirvana was on sonic youth’s tour.
I didn't realize Vice was still around. Thought you guys went under...
I love Sonic Youth, but only the songs when Thurston or Lee sing. 😮
So on Nirvana's SECOND European tour (first being in 89), they open for Sonic Youth - one aspect of a wider talk about Sonic Youth moments. Did someone listen to the first 20 seconds of this while texting and thinking about lunch, then decide to just title it? This some clueless journalism.
Kim is truly cool
Who else didn’t know Nirvana had a female member?
The title potrays Kim as a Nirvana crew on European Tour but the truth shows otherwise....
Stupid title, great video. She's so fascinating
I thought nirvanas first tour in Europe was with TAD.
They started that tour in Cork, Ireland, not Germany. Mustn’t have been a memorable one for Kim😢
Love Kim!
Love Kim
I loved lmgrowing up in the 90's Grunge era!! 🤗🤗🤗
hell yea!! Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, Temple of the Dog!! I still play that Alice in Chains unplugged from 1996. I think that show & the Nirvana were the top 2 mtv unplugged-
Kim's cool, cool like Keith.
I clicked because it was kim gordon.
SY Reunion Please!
Wasn’t even Nirvana’s first European tour
Not true - Nirvana toured Europe in '89
Kim wasn't 'on' Nirvana's first European tour -Sonic Youth brought Nirvana to Europe for their first European tour as full shown in the documentary '1991 The Year Punk Broke'.
Splitting hairs sure - but a poor headline Vice.
We know who she is, put her name in the title lol
Kim. I took a picture with your camera at a slider joint outside of Detroit. SICK BURGER. Going to Stooges reunion. Do you have the pic?
And her name is Kim Gordon, put some respect in her name!!
How dare you to disrespect Kim Gordon like that in the title.
I’m as likely to watch a video about Sonic Youth as I am one about Nirvana. I just don’t appreciate being led to believe it’s about one thing when it’s actually about something else.
Nice video about Kim Gordon's experiences of touring. But let's be honest, this has almost nothing to do with Nirvana. FYI - Nirvana's first European tour was in 1989.
Yo Vice, the title’s very misleading wtf.
the Riot Girl
If you really wanna be bored, try reading her book. Ooomph!!
what's boring about it?
Let's report Vice for disrespecting Kim Gordon and Sonic Youth
compared to a guy with cp a bad concert isn't so bad
Kinda fucked up looking back, it seems Nirvana spent more time touring Europe than in the states..
The title is so condescending towards Kim Gordon and the band Sonic Youth who had as much of an influence on music and culture in the early '90s as Nirvana!
plunty moar wher that came frum
biker/wine connoisseur
😂😂😂❤❤❤
Kurt Cobain would not approve this video tittle.
Kim is sister of grunge 💌
Yes u were
Kind of awkward. Why would you put "you suck" on the vase? I'm confused.😞
why’d you diss kim like that
she's so pretty, kim gordon is old unfortunately yet she manages to be so hot and have good skin. Such a Kool, smart babe. THE GOAT
