I was 9. I didnt find nirvana really till I was maybe 15 after kurt had already passed. I watched the posthumous air of unplugged when I was 12 and my dad made me turn it off. Lol
That guy say in the beginning ''it was 8 years ago THIS Week that Kurt Cobain Died'', that mean in this same week , Layne Staley was dying alone in his condo.
I was a punk kid growing up I use to like bands like minor threat, gorilla biscuits, 7 seconds, black flag, teen idols and stuff like that. One day a friend came over to my house and had this gig recorded on a VHS tape (I didn't had MTV at the time), and I haven't even heard of Nirvana before. I still remember the feeling when I saw this gig, I couldn't believe how good and different Nirvana was. I liked everything about them, the sound, the lyrics, their style, they way they played on the stage. It really changed my life.
Me too. I was a little kid when this aired and it blew my mind. I couldn't believe what I was witnessing. Wound up seeing them live in Springfield, MA 11-10-93, that show was unreal....
same boat.. when mainstream music was garbage Kurt blessed us with a reality check. I watched the Reading vhs tape at 14 yrs old and just flipped out. Being from Portland i felt a bit of a PNW connection.
What many people say? What people? Nirvana was indisputably one of the greatest and most powerful live bands in the history of rock music .. anyone who suggests any different is only proving how fucking clueless they are and is not to be taken seriously :/
John Arundell well Dave himself said Nirvana was the type of band who was the best band in the world some nights and a total fuckin train wreck the other, for one
@@coryc0213 that’s because the way Kurt sung was hard to sustain for long periods of time which is why he didn’t like touring. The best period for live performances far as energy and powerful vocals was from 1987 thru to the beginning of 1992. After that kurts voice had took a really bad strain and he developed laringitis and was able to recoup but only for a short time at the beginning of the In utero tour but eventually lost his strength there as well. I even believe he had to tune the instruments down a step to be able to hit the notes he was usually able to hit easily before.
this music is totally out of its time, it doesn't sound like the 90's... it has an incredible universality, it's unreal that three guys made such works of musical art!!!
Whoa, Krist! That bass tone is insane, and his stage presence is phenomenal! He is so fast with the pick and flawless! He is a key element for Nirvanas Strong drive! And how cool how Dave climbed up the wall at the end! And Kurt’s flange is so freaking mighty and cool!
Every time I listen to Nirvana, I close my eyes and wish I would just wake up back in high school after taking shrooms and listening to Nirvana. As though the past 20 years have been a trip warning me of all the possible mistakes I can now avoid.
One of the first times I smoked weed, musta been summer '96 I had a boombox and a muddy banks of the wishkah cd. I turned the lights out in my room and just sat there amazed.
I have always liked them since the first song I heard of theirs which was,"Floyd the Barber". But as I get older, I find myself appreciating them more and more. It may sound cheesy, but I hear nuances in their songs now that I didnt when I was younger.
It was this performance that, when I saw Dave playing Drain you on the drums, I knew in that moment I wanted to be a drummer. I still love playing this song on drums.
Joshua Stephens. Mine too wish i got to seethem live. You really need to check theese guys out reminds me so much of nirvana. Listen to Amethyst by PAST REGRET #np on #SoundCloud soundcloud.com/chriscataldo1985/amethyst
hijacking smurf he was 5"9' but had skulliosis which made him hunch to a posture that made him stand at 5"7' and holding a heavy ass guitar didn't help.
I remember when this actually premiered on MTV back 91-92. I was the biggest fan of this band at the age of 11-12 years old. I was out of school for the summer and out of nowhere they announced that Nirvana was coming in to play 7 songs or so. Of course I had to leave my house with my mom to run some errands. I tried to set the VCR to record at the time they were supposed to start. Low and behold 90’s technology completely let me down. I was so bummed.
I was about the same age,remember coming home from school flipping the tv on and watching this,wasn’t huge into Nirvana at the time but after watching this I think I bought whatever albums they had out at the time
"biggest fans" told their moms ef off. I was 14 in '92. I'm blessed to still have my mom, but she still hates me. And I still listen to/play my music. 🎸❣️👑✌️🇺🇲
Dave Grohl was an f’n animal on the drums...always reminiscent of Bill Ward of Black Sabbath for me...don’t think Nirvana would have reached the highest heights without him...Kurt knew what he was looking for and found it in Dave Grohl
How Kurt came to meet Dave is incredibly lucky. Scream breaking up and stranded in LA, Nirvana part ways with Chad, and Buzz Osborne of the Melvins happens to introduce Kurt and Krist to Dave, who flies to Seattle.
Most people who aren't musicians don't realize how much the drummer shapes a bands sound. Kurt understood this, and that's why he went through a handful of drummers until he met Dave.
@@sebastienfullum yes they saw Scream but didn’t meet Dave. If memory serves correctly Cobain wasn’t that impressed with Scream but loved Dave’s style.
Krist Novoselic is playing the actual Bass I now own and play daily, i've been fortunate to own 2 of these beautiful instruments in my lifetime (1st one I brand new in 1976 from the Neolete Harmony House in Blacktown), bought it about 4 1/2 years ago and have had the originality confirmed of the 2nd and current Eagle. Truly incredible instrument to play.
I was there. Wow. I've never seen the whole thing on tv before. Band was awesome. Still have Dave's drum stick. Loved it. Hearings never been the same.
At this time no-one knew that in a Seattle Condo in the University District of Seattle, that yet another "Grunge" and/or a Rock N' Roll Icon from the band Alice In Chains was already dead, or died just mere hours or a day or 2 later would die from when this officially aired. Layne Staley. RIP to both Layne Staley and Kurt Cobain, for the great music both of you icons left us with. Your legacies were both semented, well before both of your deaths. Once again RIP Layne Staley and Kurt Cobain. Legends never truly die.
This performance is why I bought my first tama kit at age thirteen.. black tama art star 5 piece and I still play tama drums to this day.. I love this very much!!!
I’m in my late 60’s and a classic rock type.. I never really listened/heard these guys before.. MUTHA FUK! They’re good!! Tight and solid and unique!! (Nirvana single handedly was responsible for store shelves to once again stock everyone’s favorite HAIRSPRAY) 😅😂😎
I saw them at Liberty Lunch in Austin TX just about the time the outgrew clubs and upgraded to big venues and festivals. Amazing show, theres an audio only bootleg on youtube from thst show - somrone musta snuck a portable DAT and some stereo mics bc you can feel the Guy moving around by the fluctuations in the stereo field during the show. Still pretty cool. Even cooler is the fact that I was on set at the North Hollywood club where Dave directed Soundgarden's first video from their reunion album. If thats not surreal enough Deadmau5 was bouncing around waiting for his cameo in the vid. Itt was like a freakin dream. During a break I mentioned that Austin show to Dave annd he rememberrd the show. Most big artists iin town stay at the 4 seasons about a mile away - also on the river like the venue. He recalled how they were picked up and ferried to and later from in a small boat a secret smuggling ramp and how trippy that was... I often wondered how they got the acts in and out of there without getting mobbed by fans waiting for autographs or lock of hair to yank out. Best of.times, as the shroom man said...
@@hollistertidwell4201 yep was at Waterloo Records 'in store' then at LL for the actual show, then we had been in Houston the night before and Dallas the night before that, we did the triagle of Texas (roadtrip) we slept for 3 days after Austin show. This was October 91 i'll never forget it. We almost decided not to do Houston & Austin after the Dallas show cuz it was so overpacked and hot af too, but glad we did after the fact. I never could get how they could keep going at that pace, and that was after 3 previous years of nearly constant touring iirc...
max gallagher Agreed :) check out theese guys reminds me so much of nirvanas songwriting. Listen to Amethyst by PAST REGRET #np on #SoundCloud soundcloud.com/chriscataldo1985/amethyst
RIP Kurt. Honesty was the driving force in his music. No surprise people will always be in tune with his music. Whether he killed himself or was killed, his music will be there for the "open minded' understanding punk rock "ethos" or anything or anyone that sees artists within truthful honesty. Not the other river. Haha. God bless ✌️✌️✌️
the day after this performance, "nevermind" did the unthinkable. the album went to #1 in the billboard 200 album charts knocking michael jackson's "dangerous" from the top spot. that day is the final nail in the coffin of hair metal and the beginning of a band's ascent.
The thing Dave had over Chad was an ability to harmonize with Kurt in the chorus'. Chad Channing is an amazing drummer! As is Dave. Both can play a vast array of instruments.
I remember coming home from school in 10th grade and flipping on the TV and seeing this. My first thought was, this guy dyed his hair and already looks different than he does in his video. Cool! Teen Spirit was the only video they had out at this moment if memory serves. Lightning in a bottle.
I like the fact that kurt stepped on his own distortion and effects pedals. Most majorly successful bands if you notice have their guitar techs back stage tuning their 50 guitar's and pressing the pedals for them. How you know this watch most major metal, rock or alternative bands preform. They never step on a pedal to switch from clean guitar to distortion. And they never tune their guitar's between songs they switch to a guitar that's tuned for the next song. Kurt changes keys himself and sings plays controls the pedals tunes the same guitar. Non of the rock star bull crap
One thing to keep in mind is that this was 30 years ago. Most bands back then and before would control their own pedals on stage....it's only become more acceptable for techs to do that offstage in the past couple of decades.
@@UKSportsFan even though it was that long ago, it was also antiquated equipment which Cobain specifically wanted and required, he had a lead tech that would repair and keep triplicates in every part on hand to keep them that way, because of the sound they produced. He refused to use the current day distortion pedals and effects because they weren't the same, and this was a pain in the ass to keep up but it is one of the numerous details that Cobain was a perfectionist in his art/music.
life was hell before the internet. Im not even into technology and dont have a smart phone but the internet is the greatest invention of all time but only those of us who lived life without it know that.
+Jesus Christ I was 13 years old when this was on. Actually I first saw nirvana do 'teen spirit' on SNL. I loved the hair so much I took the rolling stone issue to a hair dresser and got the same thing done. I admit it looked cooler on Kurt. I think my parents were debating disowning me ... true story.
Kurt's voice was on fucking point during this performance! Nirvana were so good. So thankful I went to see them live ( I had the flu and almost sold my ticket and didn't go)......Kurt died 6 months or so after seeing them live!
Kurt is genius with idea Dave is cleaver to blend it Chris the one totally blessed to have both guy he really enjoyed the music that kurt and dave played.
I saw the original excerpted version of this performance when it aired for the first time -- "Territorial Pissings as the closer being the highlight for me!!
Imagine being the lucky bean being there, to witness this live or them live, I'm sure some people experienced horrible nirvana shows, that was nirvana depending on Kurt's state,mood or whatever.

Chad was better

i still cant get enough sometimes, they will never grow old on me
I MISS YOU KURT COBAIN!
I have always liked them since the first song I heard of theirs which was,"Floyd the Barber". But as I get older, I find myself appreciating them more and more. It may sound cheesy, but I hear nuances in their songs now that I didnt when I was younger.
Chris J haha
Chris J same here !
Kurt... so unique, love you dude. R.I.P.
MY FAVORITE BAND OF ALL TIME😍
God that voice on the opening of Drain You is damn perfect
It was this performance that, when I saw Dave playing Drain you on the drums, I knew in that moment I wanted to be a drummer. I still love playing this song on drums.
When I see Kurt hitting the strings, .... I know that's I want to do now, tomorrow, and till the end, if it exists a real end.
first song i learned on drums. i didnt have a drum kit yet, but that kick drum on the up beat was a stepping stone to independence in my limbs

My God, Dave really beats the shit out of that kit. So great.
It was glorious
Yeah he was an animal!
Bringing the thunder
Couldn't stop him.
Looks like the rack Tom was busted after School lol
MTV needs to release this on DVD, I never realize live and loud was so awesome until it was released on DVD. The sound is phenomenal.
I will never stop listening to them♥
th-cam.com/video/J_uuKkuKN7M/w-d-xo.html
His voice cut through the air like a Chainsaw! Like he had grit and gravel in his voice! Amazing!
Nirvana was one of those bands that come around every few decades that have something new different and real good
This is my favorite sessions ever! Small gathering, band in their prime, Kurt just amazingly perfect....good lord I loved him
kurt was relatively small, thin and sort of fragile but the voice he had.. damn...
he was 5 foot 9
Madden Mobile Legends he was 5 foot 7
hijacking smurf no he was 5 foot 9
hijacking smurf he was 5"9' but had skulliosis which made him hunch to a posture that made him stand at 5"7' and holding a heavy ass guitar didn't help.
don't be misled, he was a strong man, all muscle every inch.

This was in January, so out of school for summer?? You must be on the wrong side of the world, the upside down part.lol

Love it. Grunge Never die
I loved his voice
His voice is mesmerizing…
i recall being a FRICKAN LITERAL CHILD, recording this and playing it on repeat in my grandparents living room constantly. Ah, the good old days.
He was the voice of my generation. Kurdt single handedly assembled all the outcasts into a group of friends. Rip

Not a loss. A gain.

You’re right! God gained himself a legend! I’m sure that’s what you meant 😉
This Seattle sound tapped into my generation and connected with us all! RIP KC! 🙏
The thing Dave had over Chad was an ability to harmonize with Kurt in the chorus'. Chad Channing is an amazing drummer! As is Dave. Both can play a vast array of instruments.
In my opinion chad was amazing but Dave was legendary and legendary is what nirvana was and still is.
Dave was a better drummer then chad, he couldn’t keep time
Dave is leagues better and took nirvana so much higher
Dave played about 200 times harder than Chad too lol
We were robbed. Gets more incredible every time; such raw talent. Happy I was here for the end of it, sad I was too young to be sure I saw them live.
It's sad we lose so many legends so early. Nirvana were my first band I ever liked and I'm sure they would have been the first I saw live not Placebo

Most majorly successful bands if you notice have their guitar techs back stage tuning their 50 guitar's and pressing the pedals for them. How you know this watch most major metal, rock or alternative bands preform. They never step on a pedal to switch from clean guitar to distortion. And they never tune their guitar's between songs they switch to a guitar that's tuned for the next song. Kurt changes keys himself and sings plays controls the pedals tunes the same guitar. Non of the rock star bull crap
One thing to keep in mind is that this was 30 years ago. Most bands back then and before would control their own pedals on stage....it's only become more acceptable for techs to do that offstage in the past couple of decades.
@@UKSportsFan yeahh that's totally true. What he's saying has only become a thing like 5 years ago maybe
@@UKSportsFan even though it was that long ago, it was also antiquated equipment which Cobain specifically wanted and required, he had a lead tech that would repair and keep triplicates in every part on hand to keep them that way, because of the sound they produced. He refused to use the current day distortion pedals and effects because they weren't the same, and this was a pain in the ass to keep up but it is one of the numerous details that Cobain was a perfectionist in his art/music.
i think metallica had other people doin it back then
at this point, nirvana weren't rocks stars yet.... they were doing well, but at this point were not the gigantic band we think of now
Great band. their version of Molly's lips and territorial pissings are two of their best songs.
I remember this being the first time most of America got to see Nirvana. Besides Saturday night live and videos
life was hell before the internet. Im not even into technology and dont have a smart phone but the internet is the greatest invention of all time but only those of us who lived life without it know that.
had everything to change a generation... your voice your strength now only memories...
Absolute brilliant.
When MTv was about music...
Definitly my favorite nirvana performance
Damn dave grohl was a beast early on!! We missed so much of what Kurt was gonna be! ❤ not to leave out krist this was so good

BEST FUCKIN' HAIR COLOR
+Jesus Christ kool aid did the trick for Kurt
+Diego Martin Pintos Urzagaste what?
+Jesus Christ His hair was dyed with Kool Aid
Diego Martin Pintos Urzagaste Ahahahaha really?
+Jesus Christ I was 13 years old when this was on. Actually I first saw nirvana do 'teen spirit' on SNL. I loved the hair so much I took the rolling stone issue to a hair dresser and got the same thing done. I admit it looked cooler on Kurt. I think my parents were debating disowning me ... true story.
Out of any definition, it hit me for one true first time, this vision, obscured by light, and travelled through the tune forever.
Thank you for this.
i like his hair colour!!! :D
Yea cool at the time!

Kurt's voice was on fucking point during this performance! Nirvana were so good. So thankful I went to see them live ( I had the flu and almost sold my ticket and didn't go)......Kurt died 6 months or so after seeing them live!
......also, Grohl is a fucking animal on drums......lol, best 3 piece imo!
I think he really tried hard for MTV. He was aware this was an important performance for the band. It is very impressive.
Ah man, just loved them so much.
Kurt is genius with idea
Dave is cleaver to blend it
Chris the one totally blessed to have both guy he really enjoyed the music that kurt and dave played.
Thanks for sharing! This is awesome!!! Dave Grohl is on fire.
Almost 30 years later, and I still get it. The message is the same. The meaning's audience has changed. Irony? R.I.P. Kurt
I saw the original excerpted version of this performance when it aired for the first time -- "Territorial Pissings as the closer being the highlight for me!!
Kurt was a musical genius
Dave on his best omfg! cheers
And they start of with the best song ever!
Startin' out with one of my two ever favorite Nirv' songs! ...how lucky met ya!!!
Imagine being the lucky bean being there, to witness this live or them live, I'm sure some people experienced horrible nirvana shows, that was nirvana depending on Kurt's state,mood or whatever.
Polly was great. Good harmonies from kurt and Dave
Absolutely, thought the same thing. Little did anyone know what an outstanding singer "the drummer" would be in the future.
