Based on a true story, Kurt started off playing drums, Flea was a snobbish classical music enthusiast, and here they are rocking out and having fun. in Brazil? I think where the hell was this, Rio
The reason I love this video is because it shows how seriously musicians actually take their music. Every band plays their song like it's completely natural but then here Flea is so intense you can see his dedication to this song.
Flea actually played the trumpet before he ever picked up a bass. "Prodigy" may be a bit of a strong work, but he was apparently really talented at the trumpet when he was younger
I love how Flea shows respect and class to playing here and is 100% committed. He's always committed but it's easy to overlook it when he's running around like a madman on stage.
I find it funny that Kurt didn't like this song so got Flea to play trumpet thinking it would wreck it, but in my opinion this is one of the best live versions haha!
People going on about how badly played or sung this is are missing the point of punk. It's not meant to be perfect. It's supposed to be rough, messy and passionate.
lacrahuntingtonYeah I guess it is. Dan Peters from Mudhoney came up with it to describe their sound. Slidgy punky and slowed down. The ethos of punk is basically that anything goes as long as it hasd passion. Thats how Ive always seen it anyway :)
Lol wtf I randomly thought to my self have the chili peppers n nirvana performed together,I immediately look it up on RUclips n well flea playin the mothafuckin trumpet ....ain't that some shit! Lol
Just when you think you've seen every video with Kurt Cobain in it, something like this pops up and you instantly cream your panties with excitement because Kurt Cobain, Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic and Flea sharing a stage is just to Fucking much
I get the feeling that if they would've given Flea a bit more notice, he could've contributed more. It felt like they caught him off guard, told him to come out on stage & he quickly grabbed a horn & did what he could. Regardless, an unbelievable cameo from a member of one of my favorite bands joining my all time favorite band on stage. RIP Kurt 1967-1994
flea is a lagend.. from film back to the future, the dude who challange mcfly to race at the of the movie to play trumpet with nirvana and bass with thom yorke... and metallica the day of rock n roll induction. the only flea who people love to him around... salute n kudos flea.....
RESPECT. it wasn't his best day, obviously, but this guy went down in history, he must have done something right. I've seen nirvana live and they rocked!!!
Scott Phillips? Mike Portnoy? Chad Smith? But you're right, Dave Grohl is fuckin awesome, as drummer of Nirvana and as frontman of Foo Fighters as well
Only a man as great as Flea can say he's played a trumpet solo for Nirvana.
Adam Smith yup
Based on a true story, Kurt started off playing drums, Flea was a snobbish classical music enthusiast, and here they are rocking out and having fun. in Brazil? I think where the hell was this, Rio
@@krisfrederick5001 im like, almost sure it was São Paulo
@@txrizzy3014 I'll go for that.
He never talks about it or Kurt ever smh
Flea was everywhere in the early-mid 90s, dude knew everyone.
Lol true
+Mos Eisley Back to the Future II, Young Mc...Bust a Move
+Mos Eisley nirvana where the opening act for rhcp on the bssm tour
+Mos Eisley RHCP and Nirvana toured together so ofcourse he was there
+Mos Eisley And he was best friends with River Phoenix... I mean, come on...
Flea, a bassist from a funk-rock band, somehow (using a trumpet) turned grunge into ska...Beautiful.
He played trumpet when he was a kid before he started playing bass
And when RHCP was just starting to hit it big, Nirvana was one of their opening bands, along with Pearl Jam.
+Callum Davage no the mid 80's RHCP were just sex crazed musicians. They made it big in '89/'90 with Mothers Milk and internationally in '91 with BSSM
Daniel Pedić ... and of course he can't help but dance! Love Flea! ❤
Skrunge!
Flea can be a member of every famous band. Man is like water, He can blend on everything.
He is formless. Shapeless. Endless Nameless :)
Water can't blend with oil
The reason I love this video is because it shows how seriously musicians actually take their music. Every band plays their song like it's completely natural but then here Flea is so intense you can see his dedication to this song.
Hysterical sarcasm bro 😂☠️😂☠️😂
Even the trumpet was on drugs.
***** I meant the instrument itself, not the guy (who, most likely, was on drugs as well).
***** Flea deserves no less.
+NeAZ haha i understand your point and it is epic
lmao
He is thebest bassist of all times,of the band Red Hot Chilli Pepers
Flea must of been like "I'm here to play bass" and Krist was like "Fuck off I play bass... Give him a horn or something"
Flea actually played the trumpet before he ever picked up a bass. "Prodigy" may be a bit of a strong work, but he was apparently really talented at the trumpet when he was younger
@@Sleeves04 You're right, actually he wasn't even interested on rock back when he studied the trumpet
@@Sleeves04 he’s just tearin that trumpet up at the end. So good. Just a tasteful musician
Lmao
Flea is God, Krist doesn't hold a candle to Flea on bass lol
it makes me happy that Cobain liked Flea.. why did I never know this
RHCP made a song about Cobain too, search "Tearjerker". RHCP and Nirvana were good friends!
omgnoob89 cool. thanks
Who doesn't like Flea anyways?
Literally everyone likes Flea.
@@volejcore3933 dogs and their owners
And because of that trumpet solo he is one the Best Bass Players ever...
flea clearly struggling to not go crazy throughout the majority of the performance is the best thing I’ve seen in a while
dirty liars, that man is wearing a shirt, he's not flea
AlexzanderVL You made my day.
Best
ahahaah, nice joke :D
AlexzanderVL who's the fuck if he's not flea ?? bruce lee ? lol
+Sebastied Juan
I rony
You obviously not. :D
When that trumpet solo kicked in that was a truly amazing moment.
I love how Flea shows respect and class to playing here and is 100% committed. He's always committed but it's easy to overlook it when he's running around like a madman on stage.
Omg Dave is playing and like looking around like "what the fuck am I doing here"
Flea plays trumpet??? And he did with Nirvana??? And a solo over that??? Wow... a unique moment in music history!
Nirvana first tour was opening for the peppers.
the 90's and Flea's trumpet just FUCKED MY FACE.
THIS.... boys 'n girls, was legendary.
I read this with Barney's voice from HIMYM haha LEGEN... wait for it DARY
yeah, I'm not funny :v
+Jhosy Morales SAME
I came here from a Phinehas video...that sucks
I find it funny that Kurt didn't like this song so got Flea to play trumpet thinking it would wreck it, but in my opinion this is one of the best live versions haha!
People going on about how badly played or sung this is are missing the point of punk. It's not meant to be perfect. It's supposed to be rough, messy and passionate.
*grunge not punk
No I meant Punk. It's the ethos of punk carried forward.
Jude Curtis Grunge is punk and metal combined.
lacrahuntingtonYeah I guess it is. Dan Peters from Mudhoney came up with it to describe their sound. Slidgy punky and slowed down. The ethos of punk is basically that anything goes as long as it hasd passion. Thats how Ive always seen it anyway :)
lacrahuntington more specifically early heavy metal like black sabbath
Trumpets are so grunge.
music is music
fuckfuck😂😂😂
bhahahahaha
x d
0TruckMafk ☢TM™"... The BigMean CommentSection BadAss
Krist Novaselic knew he was this close to losing his job
Because of Flea?
xD
Under the Bridge intro 🤘
Ben Nunes imagine if flea was bass player for nirvana
Of course because of flea
Not laughing at this is impossible.
Ikr
Wrong-o.
i just watched this while high i lost my shit lel
Looks like i beat the impossible
One of the greatest bassist ever playing a trumpet with Nirvana! How can you not love this!
Lol wtf I randomly thought to my self have the chili peppers n nirvana performed together,I immediately look it up on RUclips n well flea playin the mothafuckin trumpet ....ain't that some shit! Lol
Chris O _thats not flea_
Was expecting to see some legendary bass from flea played with nirvana, but this is almost as cool, I kinda laughed but it was good musically also :)
What a surprise to see Liszt listening to Nirvana :)
+Peiyun Xue When I'm not composing Leibestraums or conducting I do enjoy dabbling in the contemporary music period XD
lol cool hahahha !! classical musician here too ...
Peiyun Xue Oh ya? What instrument(s) do you play? :)
piano
wow adding the trumpet is comical genius in every setting.
Just when you think you've seen every video with Kurt Cobain in it, something like this pops up and you instantly cream your panties with excitement because Kurt Cobain, Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic and Flea sharing a stage is just to Fucking much
C-cream your...panties? I hope your just a guy who likes to wear women's underwear, or else you might have one serious yeast infection.
+AOTA Vids women have female lubricants that allow them to do that
flea looks strange with so many clothes on lol
collin8915 still looks like an inmate though
Stop on 69, be a bro.
Kurt was such a softly spoken kid. Yet his singing voice was so wild. He had so much range, one of the greatest
5:08 look at krist lol
Flea is just one of the coolest people ever. Not a dull moment with his energy
Wow! Smells like Flea!
This is the best version of this song ever.
No doubt
Why? just cause flea was playing the tumpet. If that was just a random dude it would be considered shit lol
@@gamesmaster1060 not really he did a trumpet solo
2:46 The moment when you know flea finally hurt his own neck
RHCP AND NIRVANA IS THE BEST 90s Band!
Green day too
flea should just play trumpet.
too good 10/10
+Callum Davage i meant just trumpet and no bass
Callum Davage I was been sarcastic
Thats what he started with though as a kid, trumpet?
Dude I recommend you to watch the video "Flea on Trumpet And John on Bass" if you haven't watch it yet ! The trumpet is fucking epic !!! ;)
he does...
I get the feeling that if they would've given Flea a bit more notice, he could've contributed more. It felt like they caught him off guard, told him to come out on stage & he quickly grabbed a horn & did what he could.
Regardless, an unbelievable cameo from a member of one of my favorite bands joining my all time favorite band on stage.
RIP Kurt 1967-1994
I just love Kurt playing rhythm during the solo. Awesomeness Supreme.
This is what Nirvana is all about. Brutally raw and honest.
Thank You for posting it 🥹
Watching Kurt and Flea together on a show it's amazing.
There is free jazz, here is free grunge, love it
The drummer looks exactly like the singer from the foo fighters
+randomNys21 haha I think she/he is trying to troll
+Gal Cesana lolololololololololol
+Gal Cesana fuck u hahaha
+lemonlime they are the same person thats the joke 😂😂 what do you mean not really
Man your right
Maybe their twins
Que privilégio ver o Kurt e o flea juntos no Brasil.
maybe flea has been dancing Tony the whole time
I'm going to go rethink my life.
Lmao right
Sure!
You Win! ahahah
Holy shit. You just blew my mind sir
2:40 Flea stole the show with his dancing. What a star ⭐️
this could only get cooler if slash came out playing the fucking trombone
Sub Normal29 just imagine slash with his hat and glasses playing the trumpet
lol ahahahha word up ahahah
HAHAHAH then Eddie Vedder starts climbing the rafters with a harmonica
then Kirk hammett comes up and blasts his tuba
Then van halen comes out with an alto saxophone and starts tapping
lol. flea realizes he couldn't play the high not so he went down an octave
Love Flea's enthusiasm! So phoken sad Kurt exited this world, music was epic!
flea is a lagend.. from film back to the future, the dude who challange mcfly to race at the of the movie to play trumpet with nirvana and bass with thom yorke... and metallica the day of rock n roll induction. the only flea who people love to him around... salute n kudos flea.....
Awe inspiring, changed me as a person, 10/10, Amazing, Phenomenal, innovative, truly a step in the right direction.
2:45 i think flea pulled a groin muscle...
Flea went full jazz mode at the end
Kurt's guitar is simply beautiful !
i love that flea didn't hold back, what a legend.
So that's why they would never play Smells like teen spirit again...
They alone couldn't make it this awesome again.
I swear, Gen X made the most badass music: heavy metal, hardcore punk, grunge, rap/hip-hop(the good kind), etc.
You'll get no arguments from me there
Ok boomer
@Krist Novoselic Says the guy who pretends to be Krist Novoselic on a Nirvana video.
@@juneau.bandca funny coming from you kirst
True..
RESPECT. it wasn't his best day, obviously, but this guy went down in history, he must have done something right. I've seen nirvana live and they rocked!!!
best drummer in the world right there
Scott Phillips? Mike Portnoy? Chad Smith? But you're right, Dave Grohl is fuckin awesome, as drummer of Nirvana and as frontman of Foo Fighters as well
+JUSTTTT although there is bonham and peart too but grohl rocks!!
+Bela Schlieper are rock drummers only drummers in world?
+Ben Henderson true buddy rich

3:20 that face bro!
Imagine this, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Nirvana doing a concert together....PURE GOLD
They toured together
RHCP
Nirvana
Pearl Jam
Must've been wild
this is the coolest thing on the internet
Flea ended the solo too quickly lmao he did a good job at faking the last part of it tho.
Nope, he played the entire solo. Just went free style at the end, when the guitar usually rings out on one note for a while
This was the first iteration of SLTS I ever heard and I loved it. Became a Nirvana fan instantly, one of my favorite albums was Insesticide.
try not laugh challenge with this video is really hard
Knight Gash i laugh so hard when watched that trumpet guy ...hahaha
Franky Tinus 'that trumpet guy' is one of the greatest bassists of all time.
the last minute is insanity lmao
É Rock in Roooolll Porra ,Nirvana Sempre ficará em Nossa Memória , Valeu !!👏👏👏👏👏😎✌
I love that this exists so much
3:13 FLEA MY MAN!
That's bloody perfect, Nirvana and Flea from Rhcp! I just love this video
And Cobain can you hear the spheres singing songs from Station to Station?
Dos de los mejores bajistas de la historia juntos.
I'm actually digging this grunge-jazz combo, I think the horn compliments it pretty well
So much talent at the same space-time!!!... :o gosh!!!
lol Flea's dance is crazily funny 😂
Seeing flea busting his wild insane dance moves with a trumpet, I needed to see this while I’m on earth… 2:40
flea was hilarious🤣🤣🤣
Flea at 2:15 cracks me up every time
Kieron H lol he was like “oh shit that’s not working let me go down an octave” 😹😹😹☠️☠️
this video made my day, so awesome
Flea's awesome❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm totally into you.❤❤❤❤❤
Menos mal q flea siguió con su carrera de bajista.
Kurt in his pajamas hahaha
flea is like a flea when compared to the size of krist

valerio M actually yeah , krist is 2 mt!!! is insane how huge that guy is he's a fucking bigfoot
4:45 OMG FLEA!!
this is pure music, no nerd specific steps to perform on stage, just pure passion. P/S: Flea is a one hell talented fella
Calculating how many pounds of the good stuff was exhausted that day
Top 10 Best crossover of the anime ever
1:17 that tremolo with the chorus sound it's fucking insane....very cool cobain rules..
2:30 onwards, Flea looks like a 6 year old kid rocking with his Dad (Krist).
flea is older than wrist dude.
3:20 the face you make when you play a trumpet solo for nirvana💀
Never knew that I needed this clip in my life
2:14 my voice during any class presentation
Two of my favourite bands
He not play worse, he just dont care, he hate being famous
he loved being loved by millions, he was just a junkie that couldnt quit
that escuse is old
Wrex _ the man loved his addiction.
We all choose our poison
4:22 flea freestyling on his trumpet
Real class. Nirvana blew the Chili peppers off the stage while opening for them, no signs of jealousy.
real music real talent
fleas and kurt is all that's good. ❤
3:24, this is where the me gusta meme came from
I wanted to stand and cheer in my dining room after seeing Flea's solo.
Flea é o Meu Heroi
melhor video dos Nirvana
