Duff is like the coolest rockstar out there. Krist is a legend, period. Guy put out 2 major label releases and is still relevant nearly 30 years after the last one came out.
Funny how both lead singers feuded with each other and here's the band mates much older getting along play in each other's music appreciating what life gave to them
The SickNeeds why would you be? Everyone on earth has at least one or several people they don’t get along with. And even though there were quite a few Axl didn’t get along with, it wasn’t necessarily always his fault. For example Kurt started the GNR vs Nirvana feud.
Duff is honestly one of the most diverse and open minded musicians I have ever seen. I love that dude and Kris too! Duffs always been my fav member from GnR too.
***** whats the title of his book? Ill check it out. I just finished the Rex Brown bio from pantera and was looking for another musician's bio to read.
EL _Wilder88 its so weird seeing his old GNR interviews. Back then he was either high or drunk. He wasn't in good shape around 93 but he really turned himself around.
That's why I find the conservative view of the world so offensive. One has to look like they are supposed to look. Otherwise they are criticized as trying to look like... What a narrow, sad view at people. Mind your own damn business.
This is a special moment that shows how music still has the power to bring people together. They were rivals and even were fighting for a while and here they are on a couch enjoying playing music together. Duff was one of the last people to see Kurt alive. They shared a flight from LA to Seattle but when Duff was going to ask Kurt to share a room, Kurt was gone already. It was too late.
In my experience bass players are normally tall, skinny and have big noses. As I have none of these attributes I have always said that is the reason I didn't make a living out of being a bassist.
So, after Duff left GnR, he went to Seattle University and got a bachelors in business. He himself said he had no idea about music until he went to college. Sit there for a minute and imagine what it was like to take music theory classes with him.
He talks about in his book, in his accounting classes, he would take copies of his own financial statements with all names white'd out, and ask the professor different questions, and "hypotheticals." He said the professor and asked why this young guy in his early 30s had multi-million dollar financial statements and caught on who he was. He said a few times people brought him records to sign and it kind of blew his cover, which he said made him feel uncomfortable, and he said he had to address that he was there as a student not a rocker. I think he said college was the only time in his life he went by his birth name Michael and not by Duff.
I heard it was something to do with a Catholic college that he attended. I would've thought he'd have a good accountant to take care of his business matters. Maybe he just wanted to go to college in the end.
@@glennoc8585 duff is a bit obsessive with things. I suspect he got it in his head that he didn’t want to ever be one of those famous broke musicians, and did whatever he could to avoid that future.
@@glennoc8585 No. I mean, imagine being a student in a random music class, and the student next to you is from one of the greatest rock bands in history trying to learn theory with everybody else. That would absolutely blow me away. "Oh, so that's a flatted 7th."
Most authentic musicians in the 90´s..That´s Nirvana and their careless great taste for music and their punk way to reach new horizons ... Love these two finally sharing together
Its funny, Duff wanted to beat krist's ass at the 92 vma's and now there doing a show for everyone. Shows me it mite take a lil time, or even years, but people can change and be buds dwn the road...
Seems like theyve both dealt with severe drinking issues. Glad to see em healthy and happy. I met Krist in the early 2000’s. It was surreal to meet a mature, tie-wearing, mild-mannered dude when i grew up admiring the maniac. “HI AXL!!! HI AXL!!!”
Who's here because they miss the good old 90's Gawd I miss the 90's No bills to pay As much sleep as I want All the parties I go to are with people that I actually know and like. No effing deadlines And most of all the music....good old angst driven music.
@@minchutong9296 actually Duff said himself ''We had so much in common back then... We have so much in common now...'' They just didn't realise back then
great to see this it would have been nice to see Kurt grow old and become nostalgic and just have fun with things like this. I'd love to see krist dave pat with eddie vedder idk if anything exists like that if anyone knows please let me know
When I watch Kris, Dave and Pat do these jam sessions with random musicians I often close my eyes and think of a world where Kurt was still alive and Navana was still going strong , I often think of the evolution of the music they would have experienced in the last 2 decades , I understand that the foo fighters would never have been but I think the price would have been worth it
Novoselic looking like your high school chemistry teacher, playing gigs with his pals on week-ends.
He actually became a history teacher :D
Really? You kidding right? :0
Diana CSCG way ? Is that so rare ? The dude not had 20 years anymore thinks change
Yes he does look so old here lol
Mart Mich Krist is uber
If someone had told me in 1992 that THIS would happen in the future, I'd be like, "get the fuck outta here!"
+Bob James best comment ever and truly describes the event!
+Bob James Ahh the Kurt and Axl wars, those were the days
+Strngs012 Dave: Hi Axle! Hi Axle! Hi Axle!
i was thinking just the same! loved this!
+Alex Majano HAHAHAAA...
Man, we’re so lucky to still have Dave and Krist… I love this dude.
And Pat
Duff is like the coolest rockstar out there.
Krist is a legend, period. Guy put out 2 major label releases and is still relevant nearly 30 years after the last one came out.
@photag216 "Nevermind" broke the music industry at the time. They got huge but without so much label interference.
Funny how both lead singers feuded with each other and here's the band mates much older getting along play in each other's music appreciating what life gave to them
well said, friend...
I’m sure Kurt and Axl would have made up by now if he was still alive
Divas thing?
I'm not surprised about someone/anyone not getting along with Axl.
The SickNeeds why would you be? Everyone on earth has at least one or several people they don’t get along with. And even though there were quite a few Axl didn’t get along with, it wasn’t necessarily always his fault. For example Kurt started the GNR vs Nirvana feud.

Read his book too! He has a good head sitting between his shoulders
***** whats the title of his book? Ill check it out. I just finished the Rex Brown bio from pantera and was looking for another musician's bio to read.
+Logan Wilder the name of his book is: How to Be a Man: (and other illusions)

Yep, Mr. Bowie.
Two great guys from two great bands
I had the goofiest smile on my face through out all of that. Just a couple of utter legends having a blast. Magic.
😁same
Me too😅
so refreshing to see a mature rocker not trying to look like he's still 21
Nothing wrong with looking good, as Duff does.
So nice to see duff not blasted out of his mind.
That's why I find the conservative view of the world so offensive. One has to look like they are supposed to look. Otherwise they are criticized as trying to look like... What a narrow, sad view at people. Mind your own damn business.
@@maikstrecker6995 You're on point who cares if he did dress to look 21?
I think they both look great in their own way. Duff has aged very gracefully specially considering how he looked in his late 20’s
Music is music. Musicians are happy playing anything !
Yes they were pretty happy that night.
i dont hear the bass at all,i only hear the accordian.
I think they should release this one on an album
T seikert wear headphone then......
@@soulkiss1001 I had the same issue but with headphones on the bass sounds really good
This is a special moment that shows how music still has the power to bring people together. They were rivals and even were fighting for a while and here they are on a couch enjoying playing music together.

2 bass playing legends. and the funny thing is... both are super tall!!! lol
i swear.
In my experience bass players are normally tall, skinny and have big noses. As I have none of these attributes I have always said that is the reason I didn't make a living out of being a bassist.
Imma be a bassist so I can be taller
@@dambrooks7578 but what about suzi quatro? she's not tall at all

When giants walked on this Earth!!
LOL
Now they are in the trees, like if you understood the reference :)
giants in the trees!
kyensa beh , as tall as cedars. Not sure what your referring 2
That was one of the nicest thing I ever watched on TH-cam.
Gave me the chills like so many times.
Guns and Nirvana! My heroes!
Whenever a Krist Noveselic video is recommended to me I always look the comments and am never disappointed
Duff looks like David Bowie?! XD
Borgirl83 hahah exactly
Yep
Eggxactly some more years in sure he will look like iggypop.. God bless him
David Bowie Mckagan.
exactamundo
The premise of playing GnR on an accordion is hilarious. The execution is outstanding!
This is beautiful!!!! Wow...Krist & Duff! Bringing Nirvana & GNR together...in their own way...awesome...
Kurt said you can't like both, but I do like both.
me too
Time changes lots of things.
Kurt was young and idealistic.
Kurt was an asshole and an idiot.
Well, I really only like November Rain and everything Nirvana ever did sonI guess it’s technically true lol
I've always loved these great bass players both as musicians and as human beings
I love how Krist looks like a high school history teacher 😂
Who is Dave?
MiniChickpea sorry I meant Krist 😂
their combined height is almost 4 meters
+Videos Video i'm dead 😂😂
+Videos Video OMG haahahaha
hahahaha
lmao good point
hhahahahahahahha
Krist is an amazing musician. Having fun with an old comrad in rock, Priceless!
Most authentic musicians in the 90´s..That´s Nirvana and their careless great taste for music and their punk way to reach new horizons ... Love these two finally sharing together
Is it only me or does it seem like Duff is the glue that holds the rock music industry together? Like, where would we be if we didn't have Duff?
That was beautiful.
fede018 yeah
Their communication was so good during playing!
This is the coolest thing ever!!!! Two of my all time favorite bassists!
Still watching this after more than 6 years. Two great artists who were once great rival bands iduring their time. Very rare oppurtunity!
Duff has always had such a natural coolness to him.
It's so nice to see how they're actually friends and how they forgot their past problems
Magic..love love love love love these two guys..and together makes it even better
Agreed, they seem so happy it was definitely a magical moment to witness!
Its funny, Duff wanted to beat krist's ass at the 92 vma's and now there doing a show for everyone. Shows me it mite take a lil time, or even years, but people can change and be buds dwn the road...
Both are old dude now..
Lol, Krist is huge af, he'll beat the shit out of Duff first
Duff made amends I'm sure. 12 steps.
Seems like theyve both dealt with severe drinking issues. Glad to see em healthy and happy. I met Krist in the early 2000’s. It was surreal to meet a mature, tie-wearing, mild-mannered dude when i grew up admiring the maniac.
“HI AXL!!! HI AXL!!!”
Maturity at its best
Duff is just a legendary Rocker Man! Gotta love Duff
When I close my eyes, I feel like I'm at the world's worst Bar Mitzvah. And then I open them and it's the world's best.
aaron green so true!
This makes me smile
Dude played the shit out of that accordion!
The bass line to Sweet Child is so good. Duff is the man.
Cold chills! This performance is an Absolute Classic!!
This is the best clip on the internet ... I miss Krist so much man I am crying watching it . God bless both of them !
I was like.. wtf.. Is this Krist Novoselic? Damn that was awesome...Damn I'm old...
my response was similar!
Who's here because they miss the good old 90's
Gawd I miss the 90's
No bills to pay
As much sleep as I want
All the parties I go to are with people that I actually know and like.
No effing deadlines
And most of all the music....good old angst driven music.
Raven Rodriguez I do miss those days!
Amen brother, it's too bad the good part of life is over before we realize it is the good part.
I'd go back to the 90's anytime!!!!
Two fucking geniuses!!! Bass players have such a solid understanding of music in general but you don’t see much credit handed to them.
This always makes me smile every time I watch it.
no throwing up the accordeon into the air....?? come on!!! hahahaaa.....
T.E G.E HAHA! YES :D
and risk it landing on his face? I think he's learned his lesson.
oh - good one! haha. Krist is such a cool cat...
LMAO.
Or purple pants?
WOOOW Krist is old, but still awesome... Two legends together. This is amazing!
He only is his 50s...
duff u r so gentle and simple rock n roll bassist! love the way he smile!
Duff is a total legend
lo que mas me gusta de Duff es su humildad
They connected in a way only musician understands. Look at the way they smile at each other!
Veo este vídeo una y otra vez, me fascina, el acordeón es ¡¡¡potente!!! y Krist aún se mueve como en el unplugged de Nirvana, simplemente lo amo.
Awww how cuteeeeee !! I love youuu Duff and Krist ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love that Krist can play just about any instrument
when I first Saw the picture and did read the calling title, I knew had Just Won the day
woah, just made me cry :'o
How Id love to have a guy like Krist in my life-fascinating and talented man!
Only wish Nirvana and Gunners had this type of bond back in the day
nah
It;s like Lakers and Celtics, That's not going to happen by in those days
No way... So wierd you said that...
@@minchutong9296 actually Duff said himself ''We had so much in common back then... We have so much in common now...'' They just didn't realise back then
If Kurt didn't bitch, Axl was interested in playing with Nirvana from day 1.
Dreams come true, fantasies too.
This is the best thing on the internet folks.
How much i respect this man i can't tell. Respect Duff Mckagan.😎
great to see this it would have been nice to see Kurt grow old and become nostalgic and just have fun with things like this. I'd love to see krist dave pat with eddie vedder idk if anything exists like that if anyone knows please let me know
The closest was this: th-cam.com/video/4cfQaQO-YD4/w-d-xo.html
i reckon kurt would have been right into this kind of thing
I know it seems sacrilegious to call any version of this song this word, especially with these two involved, but this was just ADORABLE.
Bass player of nirvana playing sweet child o mine solo on a accordion with GnR bass player is truly rock and roll at it's finest. Hahaha. So cool.
I love these guys!
I was hearing that from another room, and I was like wtf is that then I listened and watched... what a GEM!
Krist is so cool lol
Two of my favourite bands growing up and still to this day. Great to see them together enjoying music 👍👍👍
We were young n' stupid n' fight each other..., now we get old n' we still best friend
The closure I've been looking for
When I watch Kris, Dave and Pat do these jam sessions with random musicians I often close my eyes and think of a world where Kurt was still alive and Navana was still going strong , I often think of the evolution of the music they would have experienced in the last 2 decades , I understand that the foo fighters would never have been but I think the price would have been worth it
Matthew Stewart I do the same thing.
Two bass icons on a couch. Brilliant.
2 tall guys just rockin'. Love it. 💞
Oh! Duffy!! Duff is soooo humble!! I admire him a lot
Great piece: great performance
Tears in my eyes
prunepurple it was a pretty amazing moment!
For these moments its worth living ladies and gentlemen
Nunca tinha ouvido essa música na sanfona, amei essa música é maravilhosa de qual quer jeito, viva guns n roses ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
made me smile!
Thank you rock n roll.
There's something so beautiful about this...the interaction between them is really sweet.
Krist is such a fucking legend.
Two of the greatest bass players in history. It’s cool to see them jamming together like it’s just a regular Friday night. 🤘🤘🤘
Nice to see these two as pals
bullshit kurt
Imagine we were pals in our heyday, man what we could’ve accomplished together as GNR and Nirvana, but you had to be an asshole huh..
Love this fun jam session ! 2 awesome people enjoying laid back friend time and letting other enjoy with them ! Thanks fellas!
didn’t think i was gonna watch the whole thing but it was that good lmao
The crescendo is reached so naturally. They are really sincere musicians. They are made of music.
And Krist, did you have to play that down a semitone? Even more brilliant! Two bass legends.
miss you guys the great musician that I influence.. Nirvana,Guns N Roses
2 guys go from almost beating the shit out of each other in 1992 to having a jam session together
Thanks for posting this, it's fantastic.
Barbara Johnstone you're welcome! When I was recording this I knew I was capturing something special. It was such a magical event!
My two favorite bass players from the 90's! What more can you ask for in your tiny bassist musician life :-) !!
They are two legends of rock!😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭!
Really amazing
Yes this is great. Scrolled down all positive words and comments!
So good. Thanks, you two. ☺️🪗🎸
that was fuckin' awesome... anybody else standing in front of the computer applauding this?
***** this gave me chills ...literally
Yes I did too! Great to see two legends having such great fun together. Made my day watching that :)
Wow! Didn't know about this. This is truly something else.
possibly the two tallest musicians ive ever seen
Peter Steele of Type O Negative was actually taller than both of them. He was 6'8. Joey Ramone was 6'6. They are both 6' under now sadly.
Nicky Wire of the Manics is 6’3 and also a Bass Supremo 😃
