Yes they were just like Bayfront park back home in MiaMi, I jumped the fence to get in, I almost got busted but in retrospect ...idgaf...cuz at least I got to see them...I was just a kid....
He was also a musical genius that's often not even appreciated. Musicians who are learned in music theory have shown some of the brilliance of In Utero, and said that Kurt might have not even realized some of the things he did when he wrote songs. Some of my earliest memories of music are Nirvana and Pearl Jam. My mother loved both bands, especially Pearl Jam though. First girl I dated was obsessed with Kurt and had his journal. I really got a better appreciation for him when I watched Montage Of Heck. Excellent film, and I also highly recommend Soaked In Bleach.
The way Kurt's guitar moans on Serve The Servants still gets me. He just wrote these amazing haunting pop songs that simultaneously pull you in and keep you at arms reach. Combined with an overall feel of cynical humor and quixotic prose, it still feels visceral to this day.
Pretty much how I've always heard them. Although I love their music and have it all, it's so relentlessly nihilistic and cynical his death became far less shocking as I thought about it in the weeks following. There have been periods over the years where I found this connection too disturbing to maintain and shelved it all.
I was sixteen, playing my guitar with headphones on going along to nirvana. I was so happy. I will always remember singing along happily. Really miss Nirvana and the impact it had on youth of the grunge era.
maybe he wants some likes. There's no reason to lie on the internet, but people stiil do. And im an ass too, there isn't a single part of me that believes on him.
It's so hard to watch this and then think that he was dead not but 2 months later. It just blows me away. Incredible performance by the entire band, and Kurt seems in control and command the entire time...
My first important gig. My father was dead few months before. I start to understand some important messages about freedom and respect for others. Kurt, a great artist with great a heart.
Wouldn't go that far but yeah great / iconic band. Good to see the youngsters into it. Remember hearing 'teen spirit' when it first came out, on radio at a school camp. Felt it rightaway, somehow it said 'this is us, this is our music'. More than anything we'd heard up till then.
Anche io Marco... sono passati quasi 30 anni e ricordo quasi tutto, ero arrivato alle 8 di mattina al Palatrussardi, avevo 16 anni!!!. Ricordo anche che KC disse solo 3 parole in tutto il concerto... Hi, Thanks e Bye ...
Aidan Let me guess, you believe Prince, Avicii, Jimi Hendrix and all the other members of the 27 club were murdered, because fuck it could not possibly be because some of them were depressed and actually wanted to die. Nah, that'd be a really boring story. Everything has to be exiting. If Kurt wasn't murdered as you believe, then he would've killed himself another day later on. It doesn't matter, the guy is dead.
@@Cloud007. Dude you're either a really huge idiot, or you need help. Also just gotta say that if the Rome incident was attempted murder then why didn't he say anything in the whole month before his death? It's not as if he couldn't talk. And that note to Courtney once he woke up was possibly him being pissed off that he didn't die and was in fact still alive.
This performance looks so happy and the amount of talent in this band is amazing, considering their age and all. I almost tear up when the crowd sings along, not knowing how heartbroken they were all gonna be soon.
Yes he was, I read a negative comment a bit higher up, that said kurt had no passion or drive and was just taking people's money and giving nothing in return. I though he was joking but he was being serious. Obviously hasn't a clue 🙄
That intro jam to "Dumb" at 24:12 is one of the greatest forgotten Cobain riffs and could have easily been worked on for an album that would sadly never come.
I don't think it's "Don't Fear the Reaper..." same chord progression I think though. I love this riff too. It blew my mind when I first heard it because it sounds to me like Fireflies by The Lawrence Arms, even though that song was written a decade later (ppl often accuse Chris from TLA of sounding like Don't Fear the Reaper as well lol---though they both have the same rhythm that DftR doesnt)
Kurt has to be so excited during this time. In his head knowing he's only a few short months away from following threw with his plans. Btw. I don't think he's dead
From a sound quality standpoint, this is easily the best concert I’ve ever heard Kurt perform. Despite being sick at the time, his voice sounds better here than on some of the album tracks even. You can also tell that he either is clean or on downers for this show which I’m sure adds to the quality. Some people saying that he seems like he doesn’t want to be there...I don’t think that’s the case but who could ever really know. To me he just seems extra focused on getting through the show. Nirvana is still my favorite band of all time even after 27 years and it’s still a shame that Kurt didn’t stick around longer. I think his best music was just on the verge of being created. The direction that the band was going in with In Utero was ahead of it’s time dynamically. Bands like Thrice and Manchester Orchestra are two bands that I would use a comparison to that.
Amazing! Thanks for the upload. I went to the concert in Portugal - 06/02/1994 @Dramático de Cascais. Was 16 years old and I still remember Dave's animal style in the drums, the constant dance of Krist, the green lettuce socks of Pat, and how good Kurt sang and played. I didn't know what to expect, since Nirvana concerts were not quite perfect, far from it, but this one was. It was a memorable concert, lots of mosh and injuries (lol) and I still have the ticket plus an autograph from Kurt in a press sticker. Will never forget that day. And remember kids... Hate your enemies Save, save your friends Find, find your place Speak, speak the truth Edit: date
This is peak Nirvana. Well-polished, well-played on every song. And Kurt's voice sounded incredible, even though he forgot the lyrics on the last verse of Radio Friendly Unit Shifter lol. You can tell they had become professional musicians at this point, and they knew it. I can only imagine what Kurt could have done if he were given more time on this earth.

GOsh, even if that wasn't just a simple symptom of some other problems (Addction. Trying to make Ho Housewife) there's no way Kurt's ego would have let Grohl stray too far too long. Think about it. Kurt would def. rather have Grohl as his drummer than his business competitor. And, darnit, despite some of his songs being dorky AF you can't sidestep the obvious respect Dave has (still has) for Cobain's obvious artistic prowress. I can imagine him putting up with a lot more than he had too just to learn from this guy, I mean, he knew he got lucky. Lennon ? McCartney much? Kurt = Lennon, Grohl = Paul. They're like the same people. Kurt is like John Lennon, threatning to break up the band, talking mad shit and being praised for it, marrying a total wild card, drugs, assassinated - oh wait, no that last one is up for debate i guess. Grohl is just like McCartney, kinda corny but damn that guy has wok ethic. He does it all. And Paul and Grohl never toook thei bandleaders too seriously.... They could talk shit and treat them like children and they'd only warmly accept their buddy. Gee whiz... Those two, they could have out done the Beatles. IF only Kurt Cobain didn't " Commit Suicide" ....or whatever happened. Hey why can't someone gangstalk Courntey Love. I mean, if you're gonna just abuse innocent people it's the least you could do. Someone read her damn mind and tell us all what happened! IT makes NO sense! They only made 3 albums. They were just getting started! ANd look what happened to Rock and Roll...... after he "Commited WSuicide" Fred Durst? Thaat guy wouldn't have stood a chance with Cobain's loud mouth. He would have called him a buffoon and Fred Durst would have no choice but too obey. The entire landscape of Rock and Roll would have been different. Guys would have been allowed to have feelings, now ya gotta be Transgender. Geez Kurt. I really wish you didn't go away. Can't you hear the cries of the planet? Billy Corgan yeah, I can see him getting old. But Green Day is still popular. Nirvana would have been the Beatles. Damn it. Damn it Dn it
This set is unreal. They are playing so tight…Kurt must have been feeling it. Good venue, good sound, crowd into it. They could really elevate when all on the same page. Great rock with punk energy!
There will never be another Nirvana!!! Band was awesome!!! Never will be another Kurt Cobain!! Vocals was like no other! R.I.P. Kurt...Love your music, vocals and the love you had in your heart for your fans, the young people and for others💔
Audio is insane, and I've been onto Nirvana bootlegs since '92 or so. Kurt honestly seems into it, maybe it being a non-American audience, pure passion perhaps.
I was there!!!! Can’t believe I’ve only just come across this!!! Truly amazing gig. Something that made me laugh was the amount of kids in the mosh pit wearing Invicta rucksacks and clapping along to Come as You Are.

Amazing to watch this. Each concert feels so unique it's like you get to experience the gig fresh, which for us young (ish) people that never got to see them is a huge blessing.
it surprised me so much that they played smells like teen spirit normally, and Kurt didnt even butcher the solo on purpose. in fact, he enhanced it the solo on school was also highly swag this was an insanely cool show
you are absolutely right slazulo this is probably the only concert where teen spirit was not butchered in purpose actually they played every song from start until end as it is in original plus there was no usual smashing of instruments at the end of concert for some reason he was in a very good mood that night
Musically, nirvana were on fire. Not sure if they were tuned down a step or two but it definitely suits them and Kurt's voice was impeccable, his songs are challenging enough to sing a few in a row, never mind for this length of time. You could really see how nirvana were gonna evolve going forwards from this, pat added so much to the band, krist was an underrated bassist and we all know about Dave, so sad they never got to fulfill it.
Kurt starts Drain You way too fast, and Grohl subtly reels him back in to keep the song at a much more suitable tempo by at least 10 BPM. This band was so much greater than the sum of it's parts. I don't remember a lot of things, but I do remember the first time I heard Teen Spirit, and the day we all got the unbelievable news that Kurt was gone. Love that I can still watch these shows.
I think this is kurt best performance, since there was pat backing up the riff and for me that seem push him to took the responsibilities on his part in a very good and easy way . I LOVE IT! And thanks for uploading, respect!
Man from Reading 91 to milan-94 Nirvana live sound is some of best iv ever heard Kurts voice is the real deal and the guitar sound is as heavy clear and fucking massive Absolutely superb!
@@n.s.2690 im sorry for the late response, but basically i was bored of listening to the same music so i decided to check out nirvana and got hooked. They rlly inspired me too.
@@n.s.2690 Well i just rediscovered this comment once more so basically sorry for the late response but I got into them from one day i decided to listen to all their music while i was in school one day instead of paying attention and it was so worth it cuz it changed everything for me!
There isn't a Nirvana performance I haven't loved but Kurt and the whole band are really locked in here. Seems like Kurt had the mindset to go out and just solidly play the songs with little theatrics or messing around. His voice is flawless. Nirvana forever! 🤘
Yeah I get it. Can we just appreciate the performance and put aside the fact that Kurt was in a bad place. We know. He/Nirvana still played a great show and it should be remembered as such. I think Kurt wouldn't want us throwing a pity party for him and would rather us enjoy the show and music!
They all seem happy. Hard to believe Kurt hated being famous here. It feels like there was a tension that has been lifted off from their lives and there's a wonderful energy coming from their performance.
man, I was there. It seems like he was sharp but, in reality the whole gig was already a format concert lookalike lacking of true passion. 2 days later they were in Rome and he felt seek and the concert was cancelled.
he was trying really hard to quit drugs cause he had a daughter. that's why Bona0608 i totally agree with you.. and Theofish, did you even consider that in your comment? i'm seeing no "lack of passion" as you put it...
I was there with my girlfriend so lucky and glad to see Kurt alive, singing and playing his guitar less than 2 months before he left us...damn we all miss you so hard! thanks for your music, 4ever
Yes we miss him so much. I am sure that he could have composed many other albums, he was so talented and inspired. I ve seen them live in Rennes few weeks before. KC has been important in my life. I am still waiting for another band to mess me up but there is no-one!
@@corporatetrash there are good bands but none of them are actually great like nirvana. nirvana changed the game,the impacted the culture not just musically.
I normally don’t mention this band to geezers but Every Time I Die is a genuinely great band that draws from hardcore punk, heavy metal, and southern rock they even have a tight cover of Nirvana’s Tourettes
@@havao3000 это отсылка к названию первого альбома Нирваны "Bleach" (побелка), а также строке из песни "Come as you are", где во втором куплете есть слова "soaked in bleach" (вымоченный в побелке).
Not that anyone cares, but you can really hear how much sharper they sounded with Dave behind the kit. Not knocking chad’s skills, it’s just that grohl was (and is) on a different level.
I can’t stop watching them all in interviews and shows because they are so cute, their dynamic reminds me of those days before all this social media and tech. Kurt is just gorgeous inside and out. I thought I loved him in HS but digging more into his life I am a little obsessed lol. I wish he could’ve felt the sincere love so many people had for him.
Thanks, this is the best Nirvana live I've seen, this record "smells like teen spirit" ! It was as if I went back in time and attended a live concert! Kurt is very fresh here, it seems an alternative version of his death is more than likely. It's a pity we couldn't save him ...
DG was/is the best drummer of all times. Still listening to Nirvana since I was 11 yrs old. Sometimes i tell my husband that I just want to see them in concert ... it makes him laugh, but - really - a part of me is dead in April 94. I never found another band as great as they were.
I know, but they’re all usually on their games except for Kurt, who was always a little more shaky because of the drugs. For something this close to his death, he seemed surprisingly healthy
@@MorgansTrainClips he looks anorexic , Chris was thin but Curt makes Chris look chubby here ts sad his cardigan is hanging off him or his lumberjack shirt lol my bad. He started the fashion to wear a tee shirt over a long sleeve teeshirt then a lumberjack shirt or cardigan to look less thin.
@@samyandkitty8399 there is so much wrong with this comment that it physically hurts me. To start, their names are Kurt and Krist, not Curt and Chris. Second, Kurt was always skinny as fuck, and he always wore baggy clothes because he was embarrassed by it. There’s interviews where he talks about this. Look at old pictures of him from when he was a teenager or even in old performances from the pre-Bleach era, his weight never really changed at all.
@@samyandkitty8399 Kurt was skinny in the 80s but maybe he is more skinny here, i don't think he ever thought he could cover that up. he looks like a typical pacific northwest guy imo
@@mattthompson9395 all right well , if you could humor me, if you had to pick a worst or least favorite Nirvana song what would your choice be ?? (not saying that you necessarily don't like any Nirvana songs I'm just saying for the sake of internet discussion, if you had to pick what would your choice be)
i don’t know if this is the same one, but i seen a performance of rape me where he changes it to ‘my favorite dead whore’ because he found out Courtney was going on a flight to cheat. after planning to spend all weekend with him after the show. he found out a little before the show and used his punk genius it’s pretty haunting
@@l6tus So eerie. There's so many stories of those last few months but these lyric changes are the first substantial evidence that at the very least, Kurt harbored some resentment towards his marriage.
By 94 they were just incredible tight as a band and they got that big band equipment as such band should have. Must have been a fucking blast going to one of these shows.
This you? "The last good Nirvana show on the tour that should never had happened. Kurt was a true genius, but so troubled. Such a shame his talent could not grow more." commented on the video "Nirvana - Live in Paris, France [Le Zénith] (2/14/94)"
Amazing...a beautiful soul whose pain came out through his writing...He suffered from an intestinal disorder like IBS / Khrons disease, his whole life...He was misunderstood as a kid, as he self medicated through a lot of pain. He felt a kinship with the spirit of Frances Farmer, and his song about her brought new attention to her sad story. His music was multi layered ;some of it is inexplicable. He meant it to be that way. His sensitive, empathetic spirit just couldn't handle this world. It was his only downfall...Heard his daughter, Frances, is beautiful. ..Hope she knows that her dad's spirit is a cut above...The last thing he wrote here was: "Peace, love, empathy. .."
Umm what script do you read, then text as if it was yours, how about this Kurt was a dick sometimes synical just to make you feel embarrassed in your own skin, layered with grohl and Pat and Chris they rocked, but cortney had him killed, the end
Kurt was such a rare talent.The band was on fire that night.
loved school
Yes they were just like Bayfront park back home in MiaMi, I jumped the fence to get in, I almost got busted but in retrospect ...idgaf...cuz at least I got to see them...I was just a kid....

Not long after that his brain was on fire as well. LOL

different harmony than on the record and honestly better
HE was in top form this show, feb 25 ,and in april he was gone,,man i wish he was still alive,i never get tired of this NIRVANA thing
Kurt's voice is F'n great at this show! He was feeling it that night.
First thing I thought. He was really on point for this show. Even played Smells Like Teen Spirit for everyone.
He attempted suicide 10 days later. Took 50 Rohypnol with champagne. Depression is often hidden unfortunately sometines even if it's serious.

That intro jam to "Dumb" at 24:12 is one of the greatest forgotten Cobain riffs and could have easily been worked on for an album that would sadly never come.
I believe its just his 'playin-by-ear' interpretation of "Don't Fear the Reaper"
Its a song by someone else not him

He's extemporising on the 'Dumb' riff whilst the cellists gets comfortable!

Kurt is like John Lennon, threatning to break up the band, talking mad shit and being praised for it, marrying a total wild card, drugs, assassinated - oh wait, no that last one is up for debate i guess. Grohl is just like McCartney, kinda corny but damn that guy has wok ethic. He does it all. And Paul and Grohl never toook thei bandleaders too seriously.... They could talk shit and treat them like children and they'd only warmly accept their buddy. Gee whiz... Those two, they could have out done the Beatles. IF only Kurt Cobain didn't " Commit Suicide" ....or whatever happened. Hey why can't someone gangstalk Courntey Love. I mean, if you're gonna just abuse innocent people it's the least you could do. Someone read her damn mind and tell us all what happened! IT makes NO sense! They only made 3 albums. They were just getting started! ANd look what happened to Rock and Roll...... after he "Commited WSuicide"
Fred Durst? Thaat guy wouldn't have stood a chance with Cobain's loud mouth. He would have called him a buffoon and Fred Durst would have no choice but too obey. The entire landscape of Rock and Roll would have been different. Guys would have been allowed to have feelings, now ya gotta be Transgender. Geez Kurt. I really wish you didn't go away. Can't you hear the cries of the planet? Billy Corgan yeah, I can see him getting old. But Green Day is still popular. Nirvana would have been the Beatles. Damn it. Damn it Dn it
this is peak Internet
This set is unreal. They are playing so tight…Kurt must have been feeling it. Good venue, good sound, crowd into it. They could really elevate when all on the same page. Great rock with punk energy!
What an amazing version of ''Sappy''...
Local Gambler one of the best... so good!!!
@@Penny_Royalty Yes. ^^
Makes me so damn sad and heartbroken😭😭😭
I sure hope he sat down during the solo cause he was checking out his new guitar and not cause he was feeling bad. I heard it was the later always.
This song still sounds like they’re on the cusp of enlightenment or something and you can almost see the truth
There will never be another Nirvana!!!
Band was awesome!!!
Never will be another Kurt Cobain!! Vocals was like no other!
R.I.P. Kurt...Love your music, vocals and the love you had in your heart for your fans, the young people and for others💔
Best performance live of Scentless Apprentice I’ve seen. The whole concert is absolutely rocking!
pat smear is such a good addition to the band

This is one of the greatest live Nirvana gigs of all time.
I’m surprised it took so long to surface.
Awesome great UPLOAD ♓️ ☮️
Audio is insane, and I've been onto Nirvana bootlegs since '92 or so. Kurt honestly seems into it, maybe it being a non-American audience, pure passion perhaps.
Well with that she-devil 👿 it's all orchestrated for maximum cash....
I was there!!!! Can’t believe I’ve only just come across this!!! Truly amazing gig.
Something that made me laugh was the amount of kids in the mosh pit wearing Invicta rucksacks and clapping along to Come as You Are.

abonne toi si tu te fais chier XD thx
Thank you
That Heart-Shaped Box at the final just broke me
Why is he wearing a beanie :o
25 years of listening to these songs and I still get that feeling I got many years ago
Tuning down a half step really helped Kurt's voice
The part where the audience is singing along and clapping with Kurt during come as you are just makes me smile
I heard the audience with teen spirit too, and a bunch of other songs
Amazing to watch this. Each concert feels so unique it's like you get to experience the gig fresh, which for us young (ish) people that never got to see them is a huge blessing.
@@toad8840 really? why? I think they put on a great show
it surprised me so much that they played smells like teen spirit normally, and Kurt didnt even butcher the solo on purpose. in fact, he enhanced it
the solo on school was also highly swag
this was an insanely cool show
Amazing! Please check out our songs if you ❤ alt rock/grunge
@slazulo Yes I think he was in a happy place. Knowing what he wanted to do next..no not what some people believe. He DIDN'T do it.
@@patriciaelam5288i heard someone mentioned that suicide is a spontaneous decision , not a planned one
@@patriciaelam5288so he might’ve just thought of it and did it
you are absolutely right slazulo this is probably the only concert where teen spirit was not butchered in purpose actually they played every song from start until end as it is in original plus there was no usual smashing of instruments at the end of concert for some reason he was in a very good mood that night
This is what Kurt and Nirvana was capable of when they were "on". Great show. Maybe the best I've seen.
Serve the Servants,one of the best grunge songs of all time! Die hard Nirvana fans love,"Serve the Servants".
The one show I will be forever upset about missing is Nirvana, no matter how sick he was here. What an experience to have.
Musically, nirvana were on fire. Not sure if they were tuned down a step or two but it definitely suits them and Kurt's voice was impeccable, his songs are challenging enough to sing a few in a row, never mind for this length of time. You could really see how nirvana were gonna evolve going forwards from this, pat added so much to the band, krist was an underrated bassist and we all know about Dave, so sad they never got to fulfill it.
They were tuned a half step down, since '92 they did it
Kurt starts Drain You way too fast, and Grohl subtly reels him back in to keep the song at a much more suitable tempo by at least 10 BPM. This band was so much greater than the sum of it's parts. I don't remember a lot of things, but I do remember the first time I heard Teen Spirit, and the day we all got the unbelievable news that Kurt was gone. Love that I can still watch these shows.
Yeah the tempo in which Kurt started Drain You in their last show in Munich was also really really high but that time it wasn’t slowed down at all
I caught that too. Kurt was always fucking with the rest of the band like that..
almost everything they’re playing is faster than usual.
Apart from Live and Loud, to me, THIS is their best performance ever
paradiso amsterdam best

...and i was that young tall boy jumping in the crowd! Nice work reconstructing all this!
This concert is on POINT!!! I wish I had the audio version of this concert
bro.. you can download this video and reverse it to mp3, i do it all the time..
Kurt's amazing. He's really in it. And I particularly like how reliable his guitar playing is. His leads are really cool.
I agree. But there is Pat backing him up.
Ikr
I was there! My first concert ever
Wow, my first gig ever was Shakin Stevens 😊
E che concerto
You kids are really lucky and don't know it! I had to pay a lot of money for the 'audio' bootleg of this show in mid/late 90's.
Whatever Grandpa 😂
I seem to remember paying $30 for an audio recording of this show :D
i know right remeber hiting unkown cd stores to get bootleg concert cds good times
Ugly Nola those were the fucking days! Miss those days!
You call kids "lucky" yet you got to experience Nirvana XD
witnessing Kurt and Dave communicate tempo on Drain You without words is a thing of beauty
I think this is kurt best performance, since there was pat backing up the riff and for me that seem push him to took the responsibilities on his part in a very good and easy way . I LOVE IT! And thanks for uploading, respect!
Yeah especially when he says thanks for coming out tonight and then starts the intro to heart shaped box
I love when he does the scream in Drain You, doesn't do it everytime

Man from Reading 91 to milan-94
Nirvana live sound is some of best iv ever heard
Kurts voice is the real deal and the guitar sound is as heavy clear and fucking massive
Absolutely superb!
I never got into Nirvana but still look at them as legends in the industry thanks guys for all you’ve given us
You’re missing out big time, they have so many amazing songs that I feel you’ll like
@@jreamwilson97its been a year and im like their biggest fan now lmao
@@nickgames7120W how'd you get into them
@@n.s.2690 im sorry for the late response, but basically i was bored of listening to the same music so i decided to check out nirvana and got hooked. They rlly inspired me too.
@@n.s.2690 Well i just rediscovered this comment once more so basically sorry for the late response but I got into them from one day i decided to listen to all their music while i was in school one day instead of paying attention and it was so worth it cuz it changed everything for me!
There isn't a Nirvana performance I haven't loved but Kurt and the whole band are really locked in here. Seems like Kurt had the mindset to go out and just solidly play the songs with little theatrics or messing around. His voice is flawless. Nirvana forever! 🤘
yes its called misery
Very unusual you can see him put his guitar down so careful like what he did. It shows that theres something wrong...
Yeah I get it. Can we just appreciate the performance and put aside the fact that Kurt was in a bad place. We know. He/Nirvana still played a great show and it should be remembered as such. I think Kurt wouldn't want us throwing a pity party for him and would rather us enjoy the show and music!
They all seem happy. Hard to believe Kurt hated being famous here. It feels like there was a tension that has been lifted off from their lives and there's a wonderful energy coming from their performance.
Kurt seems on his game here. Definitely sharp.
like he knew it would be his last
man, I was there. It seems like he was sharp but, in reality the whole gig was already a format concert lookalike lacking of true passion. 2 days later they were in Rome and he felt seek and the concert was cancelled.
he was trying really hard to quit drugs cause he had a daughter. that's why Bona0608 i totally agree with you.. and Theofish, did you even consider that in your comment? i'm seeing no "lack of passion" as you put it...
Theofish you were at this concert??????
yes, I was. in the pit :)
this is amazing for all of us who couldn’t see them back then. thank you! you have no idea how cool this is!!
The energy In his vocal is incredible! I have never seen this video ever... what an incredible gig by Kurt.
The Band was a "WELL OILED" machine at this point!! Getty ready to go through the stratosphere!!
This was a phenomenal performance. RIP Kurt Cobain. You are sorely missed.
I was there with my girlfriend so lucky and glad to see Kurt alive, singing and playing his guitar less than 2 months before he left us...damn we all miss you so hard! thanks for your music, 4ever
KC was important in my life
Yes we miss him so much. I am sure that he could have composed many other albums, he was so talented and inspired. I ve seen them live in Rennes few weeks before. KC has been important in my life. I am still waiting for another band to mess me up but there is no-one!
Man this is a great fucking concert. Kurt appears to be in fine form throughout the whole show. Nirvana, the last great American band.
Some would say The Strokes were the last great US band. I was never into them personally though
Nah there have definitely been great American bands post 1994, not as great as Nirvana though
theres plenty great bands right now. you guys just dont listen to underground / Metal
@@corporatetrash there are good bands but none of them are actually great like nirvana. nirvana changed the game,the impacted the culture not just musically.
I normally don’t mention this band to geezers but Every Time I Die is a genuinely great band that draws from hardcore punk, heavy metal, and southern rock they even have a tight cover of Nirvana’s Tourettes
Курт навсегда в наших шкатулках в форме сердца....

I 've Been at this concert !all the time in front of the stage ..next days with broken bones, deaf but amazingly happy
Not that anyone cares, but you can really hear how much sharper they sounded with Dave behind the kit. Not knocking chad’s skills, it’s just that grohl was (and is) on a different level.
Right you can hear everything he plays
Pat, really helped give them such a solid sound.
I guess
I can’t stop watching them all in interviews and shows because they are so cute, their dynamic reminds me of those days before all this social media and tech. Kurt is just gorgeous inside and out. I thought I loved him in HS but digging more into his life I am a little obsessed lol. I wish he could’ve felt the sincere love so many people had for him.
Thanks for uploading this amazing video btw!
Thanks for the work you've put into this, the good sound quality and the multiple camera angles create an excellent viewing experience.
Thanks, this is the best Nirvana live I've seen, this record "smells like teen spirit" ! It was as if I went back in time and attended a live concert! Kurt is very fresh here, it seems an alternative version of his death is more than likely. It's a pity we couldn't save him ...
Pat really feel it, besides gives the perfect support to the band to get the final and complete nirvana sound, nice video!
this might be the best tuning of 'come as you are' that i've heard live
Exactly
DG was/is the best drummer of all times. Still listening to Nirvana since I was 11 yrs old. Sometimes i tell my husband that I just want to see them in concert ... it makes him laugh, but - really - a part of me is dead in April 94. I never found another band as great as they were.
Nirvana is the greatest band of all time and it’s not really close. There catalog is incredible and only 3 albums. Each one a masterpiece in itself.
I was thinking the same, yeah! Just 3 albums filled with all beautiful meaningful songs...
You are young, keep searching for new music, old or new stuff, there are oceans of good music. Nirvana keeps the fight over the Olimpo.
Insecticide?
@@erikrobert7398 not really an album, more like a collection of leftovers and b-sides.
@@xicaotofani1436 i see i see
The WHOLE band was awesome and on point not just Kurt....
Of course. But he wright a lot.. and that voice has something.man. it slaps my face and i llike it
I know, but they’re all usually on their games except for Kurt, who was always a little more shaky because of the drugs. For something this close to his death, he seemed surprisingly healthy
@@MorgansTrainClips he looks anorexic , Chris was thin but Curt makes Chris look chubby here ts sad his cardigan is hanging off him or his lumberjack shirt lol my bad. He started the fashion to wear a tee shirt over a long sleeve teeshirt then a lumberjack shirt or cardigan to look less thin.
@@samyandkitty8399 there is so much wrong with this comment that it physically hurts me.
To start, their names are Kurt and Krist, not Curt and Chris.
Second, Kurt was always skinny as fuck, and he always wore baggy clothes because he was embarrassed by it. There’s interviews where he talks about this. Look at old pictures of him from when he was a teenager or even in old performances from the pre-Bleach era, his weight never really changed at all.
@@samyandkitty8399 Kurt was skinny in the 80s but maybe he is more skinny here, i don't think he ever thought he could cover that up. he looks like a typical pacific northwest guy imo
He’s looking great, singing without problems, playiing the songs as they are…and two months later he is gone…i don’t understand
He was just doing his job...
Hell hath no fury like a psycho bitch
All of Kurts songs just rock. No bad songs. A hit making machine.

Just stat there and watched the whole thing. So glad there's so much footage of these concerts.
Thanks for putting this up it's raw and also special being one of the last shows and all.
This is Nirvana best concert with Kurts Singing they ever done, good job putting this all together who ever did it....
I come back to this video every once in a while. This concert and the one in Cologne in 1991 are what got me into Nirvana about 2 years ago.
This is one of the best HD Nirvana uploads on RUclips. Thank you for this!

it´s your best work ever
thanks
can't thank you enough for this masterpiece. cheers bro
Kurt’s in fine voice here.
57:23 -- Kurt sings "my favorite divorce" during the bridge. Whoa
i don’t know if this is the same one, but i seen a performance of rape me where he changes it to ‘my favorite dead whore’ because he found out Courtney was going on a flight to cheat. after planning to spend all weekend with him after the show. he found out a little before the show and used his punk genius it’s pretty haunting
@@l6tus So eerie. There's so many stories of those last few months but these lyric changes are the first substantial evidence that at the very least, Kurt harbored some resentment towards his marriage.
L6tus thats a bit too far
Micaela he says dead whore

Nirvana was the best and is still the best . I got to meet Kurt while i was in Seattle in '92 . Got to shake his hand .
Im so jealous...
He sounds amazing here. The band is tight. Excellent sound.
Dave is a beast on drums WOW
Yup
By 94 they were just incredible tight as a band and they got that big band equipment as such band should have. Must have been a fucking blast going to one of these shows.
Why are you everywhere
@@grammarnazi2058 this dude’s a nirvana fanatic
@@grammarnazi2058 Questioning that myself
This you? "The last good Nirvana show on the tour that should never had happened. Kurt was a true genius, but so troubled. Such a shame his talent could not grow more." commented on the video "Nirvana - Live in Paris, France [Le Zénith] (2/14/94)"
One of the best live Gigs from Nirvana, Kurt got so much better through the years, with his singing ability.
Amazing...a beautiful soul whose pain came out through his writing...He suffered from an intestinal disorder like IBS / Khrons disease, his whole life...He was misunderstood as a kid, as he self medicated through a lot of pain. He felt a kinship with the spirit of Frances Farmer, and his song about her brought new attention to her sad story. His music was multi layered ;some of it is inexplicable. He meant it to be that way. His sensitive, empathetic spirit just couldn't handle this world. It was his only downfall...Heard his daughter, Frances, is beautiful. ..Hope she knows that her dad's spirit is a cut above...The last thing he wrote here was: "Peace, love, empathy. .."
Your comment is good, but the last lines was writen from somebody else, its proven that this was not kurts handwriting.
Nope, he wrote the whole thing according to the forensic handwriting analyst.
So sad. What a guy.
Nock exactly
Umm what script do you read, then text as if it was yours, how about this Kurt was a dick sometimes synical just to make you feel embarrassed in your own skin, layered with grohl and Pat and Chris they rocked, but cortney had him killed, the end
Excellent version of Come As You Are! Love the way Kurt plays in it
