I wish I could go back and re-live the early 90s.

[@goingthrough9390]

[@jounikyy7715]

so could give beer money to poor

[@briancannon3987]

fact is nirvana is responsible for many bands blowing

[@jmhaces]

Those were the days. Listening to Pearl Jam's drummer at the en do fthe video made me a bit sad because the eventual "Alternative to the Alternative"ended up being people going back to pop divas, boy bands and butt rock.

[@stevenjon1347]

Dude, Pearl Jam's drummer (Dave Abruzzese) just recommended this video on his Facebook page after seeing your comment.

[@braescanlon1829]

[@gonesavage]

What a great video! Miss how exciting this time was! I was 12/13 during this time, what an amazing time to grow up. Thanks so much for posting.

[@davidmreyes77]

It was nice living through and getting to experience big cultural shifts in popular music and attitudes.

[@sampablo7776]

Rap rock replaced alternate rock I guess

[@Bori_princess38]

What a time ❤

[@mrsspock4804]

Thanks for uploading this, the change as it was happening

[@goingthrough9390]

I'm so grateful I was alive to witness it! I appreciate your appreciation.

[@jamesm.3829]

It was incredibly uplifting to see people that looked like you, dressed like you, talked like you, and played a similar style to you after years of relentless hair metal. Long live grunge

[@TheDieseldiet]

This is raw and real!!!

[@goingthrough9390]

Thank you for expressing your appreciation. I just remembered I'd uploaded this and wondered if it was getting any views, and then bam, I got a notification of your comment. It's good to know people are getting something from it.

[@sampablo7776]

Letting rap music ruin rock culture was the music businesses biggest mistake.
Or was it?
Kid's are weaker and easier to financially control now that they follow rap stars, and rap culture.

[@giselletorres4156]

As a 26 year old NO TF IT AINT. Please check out the Houston rock scene and acts like Narrow Head, Bleed, Superheaven and UK's Split Chain.

[@Kane-yg5zy]

I just checked those bands out, Narrowhead is like a Deftones ripoff, Superheaven is like a Tool/ nu metal in general rip.
Splitchain just seems generic and not good.
Im old though, so what do I know?
The Chili Peppers are murderers😂

[@vickikeech7484]

Diddy.💩

[@Kane-yg5zy]

Dave Abruzese hit the nail on the head with that last comment😂
Media and pop culture is fucked in the head.

[@briancannon3987]

the chili peppers would and done anything to succeed ... including murder

[@jack-uv6mt]

We've all murdered for success

[@tornoofo17]

This shit was hilarious.

[@LittleBrother-t6n]

Give it 4 years and grunge will be out as a bland, boring music style as well. And it will be to this day.

[@123612100]

And then grunge became butt rock and it was as bland and boring if not more than other music.
