Nirvana C/D

I'd like to believe they put on a good show in '92 because the 3rd and final time I saw them was in '91 and I was convinced they'd lost the fire.

I guess I'll call this a good choice for the annual Nirvana product that's normally released every November.. It's definitely better than Muddy Banks. Kids will buy it because it contains 11 of the 12 songs on Nevermind.. and it's not a complete bore because it contains 3 of their best covers, and because some random dude jumps around on stage for the entire thing. I wish more modern bands would invite random dudes to jump around.

I wonder why Love Buzz was left off the DVD?

good call.. it's left off the CD version probably so it can be under 80 mins.

oh wait.. i figured out why that song was cut... half the song he's tuned incorrectly.. hahaha

ome random dude jumps around on stage for the entire thing

that's tony, the drummer from bivouac...

cd/DVD is fantastic. particularly the DVD, its easy to forget how affecting they were visually as performers. also remarkable, given the kind of overload live videos or broadcasts of festivals enjoy today, how unadorned and unflashy the DVD is - minimal light show, no video screens, and yet still an entirely riveting performance.

Just saw someone post this. Kind of neat to think about someone having that bill and thinking "should I go or not go? I won't go. I'm going to play a round of mini-golf that day instead...but I guess I'll hold on to the announcement" and then, three months later, feeling really shitty about that decision.

Classic but I know that they are a polarizing figure in these here parts.

good band.

I <3 Nirvana still

thread made me put on in utero actually. i almost never listen to this band but they always make me happy.

um. i don't *think it's april 1st...

what
the
fuck

and they wrote a new song together!

i can tell, this is going to be really, really good

paul should try to use the singing style that he used on "get back"

*vomits*

crossing my fingers for "Freedom 2"

The Sun? That's the British version of The Onion, right?

I just saw this on the Guardian page:

Ned Raggett recommended Paul McCartney to replace Kurt Cobain in Nirvana reunion. · 56 minutes ago

Heart of the Courtney.

ok, this is Britain's "National Enquirer", right? Like Batboy and Elvis is living in my basement type of shit?

Well, it was also in The Guardian, and even The Sun is more about having 'weird perspective' than 'totally made up bol'

Wow. This is a really weird story.

so they're not playing any Nirvana songs?

will they play "More Than A Feeling"? I think that would sound great.

all the talk is about them playing a new song, it'd be weird if they only did one though. a Beatles song seems 500 times more likely than a Nirvana song, though. or Wings! the Foo Fighters have covered "Band On The Run."

please be smells like teen spirit, pleeeeeeease

would be rad if mccartney and novoselic both came out with basses and just did a crazy free bass jam.

mother nature's son is a whore

please upvote joan jett over mccartney

As someone tweeted today, they should do Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart Shaped Box.

lol

They apparently have a 30 minute time slot, so who knows what's going down.

That was awesome. Smear has a Germs sticker on his guitar. That was punk as fuck.

As someone who saw and loved Nirvana in 1990, I think that was legit and affecting.

Yeah that song ruled.

i am ashamed to say that it made me tear up a little

i fking dug the hell out of that

yeah that Alicia Keys is something huh

I sure hope Nirvana and Paul put out an Mp3 of their "American Woman" cover

where can I see this?

here

wow Sir Paul has had some work done huh

us lot in the u.k. don't get to see this beyond brief news snips of the stones!

The whole concert is on Sky Arts 1 tonight.
