Everybody knows that Kurt Cobain died in 1994, but I’m pretty sure that most of the people reading this wouldn’t have known that Nirvana played their last ever show on March 1st 1994 in Munich. That’s 22 years ago today if you want to feel old.
To celebrate, here’s the full set from that show, complete with a power cut during ‘Come As You Are’ and a tape having to be switched over during ‘School’ (totally forgot you used to have to switch tapes over when you were recording stuff, that was annoying) that perfectly encapsulates the time. Unfortunately only the first three songs have video footage and one of them is a cover of The Cars’ ‘My Best Friend’s Girl’, but it still looks and sounds pretty good for what you do have. Everything is played really fast too which is awesome.
There’s also no ‘Smells Like Teen Spirt’, which is a pretty cool statement from the band.
