??? You must be 20 yrs old or younger.. Dave excels on drums. He is definitely not a guitarist. Although he's ok at guitar and songwriting, his talent really shows in his drum playing. He is exceptional when given a couple wooden sticks. The only reason he's been able to thrive is because he was in Nirvana and is actually ok at songwriter power chord type stuff. But in reality if he was never in Nirvana he would be thrown in with the millions of dudes trying to make music with their simple power chord progressions and not be taken seriously. I love Dave and Nirvana and I always will. But I truly believe this. Foo Fighters were good for their first 2 albums when Dave still had passionate things to say. Then the fame and all that shit just dissolved him into another Axl type rockstar. I think Kurt would be disgusted. But he knew where things were going and decided to check out early.
I would concur. The guy is an amazing musician. Kind of makes you wonder had Kurt Cobain not passed, would Grohl have ever realized his true potential as a musician?
He's the one who influenced me to play bass love the dude, and to this day he still does his signature bass slung way, way low and to this day I can't play like that no matter how hard I try !
When he gave threw his bass up and caught it with his face. Then ended with a concussion absorbed the power of bass. Krist is 'the bassman', do people not know this?
Seeing Krist on the stage is amazing. Still to this day he's a legend in my eyes. He had been there since the beginning and deserves more recognition the he gets.
Saw Nirvana in ‘93 in Phoenix, I was 17. As high as I was I still remember Kurt Tearing it up. I don’t think people realize what we lost when he took his life, a true artist
Reckless Raptor Yea all the other ones were shit, Lorde was the only one to capture the depressed angry vibe. Of course none of them were near as good as Kurt. If you got a problem with my opinion, tough shit.
No one can replace Kurt on vocals. But this whole thing is worth it to see Dave drum these songs again. A complete maniac on the drums and forever my drum hero ❤
Balling like a baby some 30 years later. Hoping anyone out there in need of a friend finds that friend today.kurt and this band and their music are perfect reasons to keep going.
This is sooo good. I wasn't expecting it but it brought a tear to my eye at the end, what a special band and special songs they are. All the people on here saying the vocals were fucked up have clearly forgotten what Nirvana/punk was all about. Those women smashed it, huge respect from me ♥
The irony of people criticizing grunge legends for not sounding "good enough" while covering the epitome of grunge from the era they helped create. Grunge music was anti clean/perfect playing and singing at its core. It was a revolt against the over polished music of the 80's. This was something Kurt would have appreciated.
The thing I find missing from the vocals isn't the polish, but the intensity Kurt brought. I don't hate the covers but when you compare them to Kurt live they fall short. I know Nirvana was hit or miss live but still. I think it highlights how amazing Kurt was instead of disparaging the covers.
Okay for all of you complaining about their choice of singers, let me put you straight: Joan Jett - Punk legend, not only was she part of the Runaways and did she have a very prolific solo career but she's also the reason why Pat is on stage there, he and Darby Crash started the Germs because of the Runaways. They also had Joan Jett produce their album which is regarded one of the seminal American hardcore albums of all times. Kim Gordon - Was the one who brought Nirvana to attention of the DGC label, she also took Nirvana on tour to support her own band Sonic Youth, who as Kurt admitted was his favorite band. She and Kurt were also close friends and she produced Hole's album "Pretty on the inside" and appeared in the Video for "Doll parts" as a tribute to Kurt Annie Clarke - Is among the new wave of Geek rockers. having toured with David Byrne of the talking heads, which again was a band Kurt was heavily into. Lorde - Much like Annie Clarke, Lorde is from the new wave of geek rock, don't forget that Kurt encouraged the geek crowd: the wallflowers, the nerds, the ones who were bullied in school. Stop the bullshit here, Kurt would have LOVED this show and what the ladies did in their performances.
Really doesn’t matter who’s singing bc no one will ever replace Kurt’s voice in any of the songs.. just goes to show how unique and dominant nirvana was/is in the past/present.

anyone who thinks Kim Gordon didn't do a good job, obviously doesn't know who Kim Gordon is LOL. Kim Gordon showed up and did exactly what the fk Kim Gordon does. Big ups to her and RIP Kurt
They killed this‼️ It's perfectly 👌 imperfect, just like Kurt. Meanwhile, the people who get it and need to hear it will keep playing it as loud as possible while giving the finger to anyone who's hating on it‼️
Pretty sure that Kurt would have loved Kim's singing here, and the fact that they were friends makes this meaningful to watch. Sonic Youth helped Nirvana get their first big break with DGC and took them out on tour. They were kindred spirits. Kim clearly channelled Kurt's weirder, confrontational side that can be heard on songs like Negative Creep, Beeswax, Hairspray Queen and Tourette's. If you don't appreciate this, you really don't get Nirvana.
@@kevindunn2663 yeah but on the other hand I'm sure Avenged Sevenfold Korn exedra could have also played at the tribute show, they picked nothing but these chicks

Guys!!!! Nobody was terrible they all did exactly what Kurt would have wanted and sung their own style. That's what I gained out of this. No one tried to sound like Kurt and they all tried to sound like themselves which is what I believe Kurt would have wanted. Please stop spreading the hate for any of these singers. Reevaluate what what you think Nirvana was supposed to be about. It's in the lyrics. "All we are is all we are" plain and simple
+David Martin Rubio Dave respect to much Kurt Cobain, he said he never will sing nothing of nirvana, in some interviews he make its clear with other words!!!
+David Martin Rubio he said in some interviews, as ayrton pointed that he will never sing nirvana songs. Look at Foo Fighters, he has pat there and they never sing anything from Kurt.
Kurt knew that punk is not always being mindful of perfect pitch and perfection. It's about spitting it out and speaking your mind and rocking like it's your last day... Joan Jett knows the same. Good job Goddess
Amazing. And to all the haters... “At this point I have a request for our fans. If any of you in any way hate homosexuals, people of different color, or WOMEN, please do this one favor for us - leave us the fuck alone! Don’t come to our shows and don’t buy our records.” - Kurt Cobain
No one shouting out Annie here? She killed it! Especially later on when she stares down the camera and the fun she has with the “so are you.” You can tell she was nervous at first but she broke out of that and delivered a sick performance.
@@CheesyPlasticCheese what if misogyny has nothing to do with it and it just so happens that they are female and we disliked their performances? I would be as appalled by these performances if they were men.
I can’t believe I hadn’t seen this, but the comment section is so negative. You can’t expect it to be an exact replica of Kurt. Everyone has different singing styles. I think they did well, specially Joan since she has that raspy style of singing.
@@ericapolinario2178 so why? I think the band “love buzzers” is better for this performance than these woman. I don’t hate women, but “love buzzers” sounds like nirvana. I think they sing well, but not like Kurt. But in this performance we need a person who sounds like Kurt. So, it’s “love buzzers”.
@@thesoundlikechameleons2082 Kurt asked Pat to join the band during the In Utero tour and I'm pretty sure Kurt died at, or not long after, the end of the 6 months that Pat actually played with Nirvana. If you asked me, I'd say he was an official touring member of the band. 🤷♀️
I can't believe I'm just seeing this now! I'm so glad all these amazing, strong, talented women came together to do this. I have chills and just feelings that I can't explain. To anyone with negativity, don't watch, because you obviously don't know what Kurt would have been into or dug. My only complaint is I wish there were more performances. Thank you for being involved, thank you for sharing. New Artists, and our favorites, may we never forget this feeling.
не знаю, что здесь может впечатлить; просто бабки и ещё раз бабки (т.е. money) все эти шоу только для того и делаются, типа сколько ещё можно из этого выжать. У нас на памяти Егора Летова (а это, поверь, не Курт Кобейн, это гений) такие мракобесные шоу устраивают, что плачь. Т.ч., извини, но к подобному надо подходить не эмоционально, но критически. P.S. да, я то же "болел" Nirvana
Kinda twisted but I love hearing that pain from Dave in the drums at the start of “Smells like teen spirit”. He just starts soo angry and it feels so much like a revival of that nirvana sound
Kurt empathised with womens struggle for equality and he admired female punk rock performers hence his wife etc. This is a pretty tasteful tribute. What do the haters expect anyways???
Ironically, Kurt Cobain would have been the first to say this performance was terrible and they needed to do better if they wanted to make it in Rock and Roll.
They expect Talent and a capable artist. Not an " I'll make it my own" egotistical Instagram loving singer going for followers. Stevie Nicks would've done better.
Well, i'm 8 yrs late to this video lol, but it's important to underline that this seemed to be a tribute to Kurt from the perspective of women rockstars. And as such, sung as they do/did in their respective bands. So in that regard, it's expected that they sing the songs in a way that's not necessarily imitating Kurt's voice . And in that regard, it's something i really approve of. Especially considering that it's a good way to make female fans feel represented. By the way, i wasn't expecting Aneurysm here, it's such a "radio unfriendly" song 😆
Nirvana Reunion Show! Shaun Morgan from Seether on Vocals and Guitar Krist on Bass, Pat on 2nd guitar and Dave Grohl on Drums! Make it happen Krist & Dave please!!!!
I usually don't leave comments or reply to comments... BUT REALLY?! You think Kurt would disapprove of these performances because they didn't sound like the old Nirvana? I think he would have been honored. For starters, Dave just said in the video that Nirvana had days where they would sound like the greatest band, and days where they sounded like shit. These women captured that. And Kurt being the feminist that he was would have loved all the off-key, quirky, crazy, uniqueness all these women brought to the stage. I thought it was perfect for being un-perfect. And that's all the hostility I will bring to this conversation, so don't bother.
Agreed! I thought all four performances were great. I actually like Lorde and I think she nailed "No Apologies". The only person who could sound like Kurt is Kurt. RIP Kurt Cobain--Nirvana still rocks!
you resumed the same thoughts I had watching this wonderful performance. Then... it's music... enjoy it... don't like it... don't listen to it... live in peace as they use to suggest!
People don't understand..this tribute is not about singing like Kurt.. it's about celebrating his life and enjoying his music in your own way and he would've been proud to see all these women doing the honor!!! Kurt Forever❤️
exactly well said thts wht I'm telling all the lame ass ignorant comments.. tht doesn't sound like Curt.. WTF u idiot? sheeple will be sheeple in a obliviated world
I really miss my coming of age period, as well. That is why I try to immerse myself in trying things all the time, to fill that void, that became the ever so present, as the past leaves me feeling lonely.
Does anybody in this comment section and thread who's bitching about the female singers, actually remember what Kurt Cobain sounded like live? He didn't sing his songs all pretty, he sang his songs in a very raw and punk way, with a bit of an exception on the MTV unplugged. These singer/musicians are the real deal.
@@EduardoDanielFerreira they aren't Kurt. There won't be any more Kurt shows. What they were doing was a tribute, not an impersonation. Kim Gordon's version of Aneurysm was inspired, though. Magnificent.
whats with everyone shitting on Joan's singing? its her own spin, shes not imitating Kurt's singing, you can tell immediately with Teen Spirit. I think she did it in a way Kurt would've approved.
i think chris & dave arranged this night exactly as kurt would've agreed on had they used a ouija board. only female singers, and only in their own styles. you might not like it, but i bet he digs that
No he wouldn't have agreed with these old crows who crapped all over his songs.. I think Dave and Kriss didn't get on with Kurt near the end so they must have done this deliberately..
@@dfstarborn you've got some issues. You've posted the same nonsense on a number of comments. Makes me wonder if you are even a Nirvana fan or if you're just a misogynistic fuck? I'm willing to bet Kurt would have loved these performances. The idea of covering a song is to do it in your way and not sound like the original. If all these ladies were trying to mimic Kurt then it would be karaoke and not covers.
I don't like it, but I appreciate what they did here. If people honestly came here and thought that the singers were going to emulate Kurt, then it's an insult to him
No slam on Kris or Dave, absolute stellar musicians - the entire world will agree, but the band was probably about top break up at the end there. There were some pretty serious differences. Kurt was not an easy person to get along with.
99% of Comments are from Posers who don’t know nor understand the Grunge era. Nor who these Vocalists are and what they all represent. Kurt was a Feminist, and he would have been more than proud to see these Legends give him this homage.
"At this point I have a request for our fans. If any of you in any way hate homosexuals, people of different color, or women, please do this one favor for us - leave us the fuck alone! Don't come to our shows and don't buy our records." - Kurt Cobain
Idk why y’all are complaining about these singers. If Krist and Dave are ok with it, then I am, because they know what Kurt would have wanted better than we do.
For all the people who all calling the singer's shit, just appreciate the performance for what it is. In my personal opinion its amazing cause its rock history
A lot of folks in here commenting about Cobain and how this tribute doesn't represent him must have missed the fact that he dug a Japanese pop girl band Shonen Knife. I don't think some of you have a clue what he would have liked.
I feel like the audience only listened to smells like teen spirit because the rest of the songs they played they look like they never heard of them before

У нас на памяти Егора Летова (а это, поверь, не Курт Кобейн, это гений) такие мракобесные шоу устраивают, что плачь. Т.ч., извини, но к подобному надо подходить не эмоционально, но критически. P.S. да, я то же "болел" Nirvana
Dave was making sure Kurt heard those drums! straight the fuck up.
Until to this day i'm still a huge fan of NIRVANA....GRUNGE WILL NEVER DIE!!!
Pat Smear gave that Teen Spirit solo hell. 🔥🔥🔥
Kinda twisted but I love hearing that pain from Dave in the drums at the start of “Smells like teen spirit”. He just starts soo angry and it feels so much like a revival of that nirvana sound
I love how like every comment is about dave on drums
crazy to see how hard it is to keep up with kurt’s crazy talent as a vocal performer
I can just picture old Kurt there with old pat, krist and Dave 🥺 WE MISS YOU KURT
He was there for sure homie 🤟
Kurt empathised with womens struggle for equality and he admired female punk rock performers hence his wife etc. This is a pretty tasteful tribute. What do the haters expect anyways???
More energy.
Ironically, Kurt Cobain would have been the first to say this performance was terrible and they needed to do better if they wanted to make it in Rock and Roll.
They expect Talent and a capable artist. Not an " I'll make it my own" egotistical Instagram loving singer going for followers. Stevie Nicks would've done better.
Dave looks truly excited to drum for these women, just amazing
Well, i'm 8 yrs late to this video lol, but it's important to underline that this seemed to be a tribute to Kurt from the perspective of women rockstars. And as such, sung as they do/did in their respective bands. So in that regard, it's expected that they sing the songs in a way that's not necessarily imitating Kurt's voice .
And in that regard, it's something i really approve of. Especially considering that it's a good way to make female fans feel represented.
By the way, i wasn't expecting Aneurysm here, it's such a "radio unfriendly" song 😆
I still get chills at Grohl's drumming on Teen Spirit. The man is still a monster.
Nirvana Reunion Show!
Shaun Morgan from Seether on Vocals and Guitar
Krist on Bass, Pat on 2nd guitar and Dave Grohl on Drums! Make it happen Krist & Dave please!!!!
Shaun Morgan is like the only person that can sing Nirvana without sounding dumb as hell
He shouldve been their
I could listen to Dave on the drums all day!
Honestly, I don't care who is singing. My heart just aches at just seeing the others play 💔💔💔 I'd never thought I'd see this day
Dave grohl was getting into it hard too lol
I usually don't leave comments or reply to comments... BUT REALLY?! You think Kurt would disapprove of these performances because they didn't sound like the old Nirvana? I think he would have been honored. For starters, Dave just said in the video that Nirvana had days where they would sound like the greatest band, and days where they sounded like shit. These women captured that. And Kurt being the feminist that he was would have loved all the off-key, quirky, crazy, uniqueness all these women brought to the stage. I thought it was perfect for being un-perfect. And that's all the hostility I will bring to this conversation, so don't bother.
+Rachel Wilson I thought it was good....
Agreed! I thought all four performances were great. I actually like Lorde and I think she nailed "No Apologies". The only person who could sound like Kurt is Kurt. RIP Kurt Cobain--Nirvana still rocks!
you resumed the same thoughts I had watching this wonderful performance.
Then... it's music... enjoy it... don't like it... don't listen to it... live in peace as they use to suggest!
***** thanks...I didn't realize that typo.
People don't understand..this tribute is not about singing like Kurt.. it's about celebrating his life and enjoying his music in your own way and he would've been proud to see all these women doing the honor!!! Kurt Forever❤️
exactly well said thts wht I'm telling all the lame ass ignorant comments.. tht doesn't sound like Curt.. WTF u idiot? sheeple will be sheeple in a obliviated world
If only Dave could do drums and sing at the same time. His drumming is awesome. ✌️
Phil Collins looks at you like you're s%hit
I really miss Nirvana.
I really miss my coming of age period, as well.
That is why I try to immerse myself in trying things all the time, to fill that void, that became the ever so present, as the past leaves me feeling lonely.
Who doesn't? The corporate short hair slick back suit and tie silver spoon presentable unsuspecting people in the crowd? Maybe.
Grohl can still play like he's 20, loved Joan Jett and all the singers
Does anybody in this comment section and thread who's bitching about the female singers, actually remember what Kurt Cobain sounded like live? He didn't sing his songs all pretty, he sang his songs in a very raw and punk way, with a bit of an exception on the MTV unplugged. These singer/musicians are the real deal.
@@EduardoDanielFerreira they aren't Kurt. There won't be any more Kurt shows. What they were doing was a tribute, not an impersonation. Kim Gordon's version of Aneurysm was inspired, though. Magnificent.
Eduardo Ferreira Lol how was Kim Gordon was up there “singing pretty”?
Saddest thing about this is he should’ve been there. Those three guys are only missing one dude who made it all come together. RIP Kurt
whats with everyone shitting on Joan's singing? its her own spin, shes not imitating Kurt's singing, you can tell immediately with Teen Spirit. I think she did it in a way Kurt would've approved.
She sang it like she had to poop
i think chris & dave arranged this night exactly as kurt would've agreed on had they used a ouija board. only female singers, and only in their own styles.
you might not like it, but i bet he digs that
No he wouldn't have agreed with these old crows who crapped all over his songs.. I think Dave and Kriss didn't get on with Kurt near the end so they must have done this deliberately..
@@dfstarborn you've got some issues. You've posted the same nonsense on a number of comments. Makes me wonder if you are even a Nirvana fan or if you're just a misogynistic fuck? I'm willing to bet Kurt would have loved these performances. The idea of covering a song is to do it in your way and not sound like the original. If all these ladies were trying to mimic Kurt then it would be karaoke and not covers.
I don't like it, but I appreciate what they did here. If people honestly came here and thought that the singers were going to emulate Kurt, then it's an insult to him
No slam on Kris or Dave, absolute stellar musicians - the entire world will agree, but the band was probably about top break up at the end there. There were some pretty serious differences. Kurt was not an easy person to get along with.
dave grohl is insane
Why is every one of these so funny
I feel so very lucky to have seen them twice back in their heyday. I am old and happy.
Dave Grohl always gives 110%
Oh fucking yes
Dave is worlds best drummer
@@thomasabramson100 agreed.
99% of Comments are from Posers who don’t know nor understand the Grunge era. Nor who these Vocalists are and what they all represent.
Kurt was a Feminist, and he would have been more than proud to see these Legends give him this homage.
That has nothing to do with that trash ass singing tho
It has a lot more than you’ll ever know.
@@ObeyyShadesz and? Music and feminism are not the same shit
And The mans can't be feminist just support this :)))
dude no ones saying its ass because of females lol its because its just not good. simply put.
@@itz_vortex7341 exactly
Full circle seeing Joan and Pat performing these songs together - Both Legends
"At this point I have a request for our fans. If any of you in any way hate homosexuals, people of different color, or women, please do this one favor for us - leave us the fuck alone! Don't come to our shows and don't buy our records." - Kurt Cobain
Idk why y’all are complaining about these singers. If Krist and Dave are ok with it, then I am, because they know what Kurt would have wanted better than we do.
Was awesome seeing Dave Grohl hammer those drums again!
Grohl is killing it on drums . My God . What a talent
Grohl was and still is too heavy handed as a drummer
Damn it Dave! You have power like you’re still 20 years old.
For all the people who all calling the singer's shit, just appreciate the performance for what it is. In my personal opinion its amazing cause its rock history
I don’t understand all the hate in these comments. Kurt would be tickled pink to be honored by Joan Jett and St. Vincent.
Overacting performers in front of some rich zombies in their evening dresses. It's like an anti-tribute to Kurt.
no poser
@@thomass30 when Annie sang I’m so ugly but that’s ok cause so are you it felt like a fuck you to that crowd.
y'all saying kurt would hated that, he simply wouldn't care
made me emotional seeing pat play kurt’s solo on SLTS
After a 25 year hiatus, Nirvana is back with their new hit single, “Smells Like Old Spice.”
A lot of folks in here commenting about Cobain and how this tribute doesn't represent him must have missed the fact that he dug a Japanese pop girl band Shonen Knife. I don't think some of you have a clue what he would have liked.
I feel like the audience only listened to smells like teen spirit because the rest of the songs they played they look like they never heard of them before
Four singers are amazing. I cried. But I realize nobody can make and sing a song like Curt Cobain.
