@@D.MINORRR These older NBC executives would come up with their 16 year old grandkids wearing brand new Nirvana shirts and introduce them to the band. Nirvana were totally nice but it was pretty awkward and funny. I remember them laughing about these new fans. I remember leaving, going up the escalator and looking over and seeing Kurt sitting on a foldout chair with a bunch of people (music journalists?) standing around him asking questions. He had his head down and his hands covering his face. His Fame was like a week old and he looked like he was already bummed out

There's a bit of a juxtaposition there since Kurt simultaneously did want to "make it big" while also hating the negative aspects of fame itself. A very human thing to do of course. In hindsight for me I think a lot of these people were just really naive to how the world works, not even just the business side. The music itself is always pure, people are not sadly.

1:45 That friend was Jason Everman. He joined the band in 89 not too long after they recorded Bleach. Even though he didn't play on the record he was still credited and paid the $600. He only lasted a few months though. By summer time he was gone

It's so weird that they didn't mentioned Jason by name. We all know he paid the $606 and is even featured in the cover. To call him "a friend" is ridiculous. If he didn't play was because Kurt chose he didn't liked to have another guitarist in the end.

I remember seeing Nirvana in Los Angeles they were unbelievably good and then four months later Kurt was gone and we didn't know it at the moment but so was grunge.

Idk why Jack is saying “they borrowed $600 from a friend” Jason Everman was the 2nd guitarist early in nirvana and he paid for it. Kurt still owes him $600 😅

This video deserves to be 45 minutes or 1 hour longer😢

That whole music scene was just amazing, really, especially in hindsight. So many excellent songwriters shoulder to shoulder. Even the stuff I don't care for I still respect how unreal it is that they all cultivated their own unique music, wholly different from the other, enough connective tissue to feel the part of the world they came from, separate enough to be unique. That period is almost like a pop culture vacuum. Suddenly, all these decent guys became world famous, ubiquitous pop icons. I believe their authenticity can be found in the number of them who did not make it. One of the other things which rarely gets much attention is just how damned young they all were while creating some truly extraordinary rock/pop music compositions. Especially groups like Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, and Mad Season. Odd time signatures, modal changes, strange chord progressions, all coming from relatively untrained 18-30 year old kids. Lastly, they were virtuous in ways unparalleled by many other "scenes." Most were monogamists seeking to start their families and have children, rarely taking advantage of the privileges afforded to celebrity in terms of young women idolizing them and surely throwing themselves at them. Yes, there were many prolific drug users in these groups, but it has no bearing on my assessment of their moral compasses or virtuousness. Most appeared to be empathic guys and girls who cares about each other and other people. Rare stuff considering the hair metal scene in LA in the 80s, and the hip hop takeover of the late 90s-now.

I miss Nirvana. Just as much as I miss Kurt Cobain. My favorite dude. 🕯🌼🕊 I am happy for Krist + Dave just be doing their own thing now. Glad they are still around doing what they do best & love. Great for the both of them dudes. 😎😎

Is there a longer version of this

I was in highschool durring the grunge era , that time was just different ...😬

Kurt told David Geffen that he wanted to be the biggest Band in the World. So it actually happened and Kurt freaked out and couldn't handle it. People wish for FAME but they have no idea what they are actually wishing for. Fame comes with lots of pressure and responsibility that few young people are prepared for. Even Kurt's Mom told him he wasn't ready to be famous.

In case you haven’t heard Nirvana’s first album, “Bleach,” I highly recommend you check it out! It’s so sick.

Montage of Heck. It's inspired on writings from his diaries and home footage. Frances Bean Cobain in Executive Producer and directed by Brett Morgen. You have to keep in mind that many of Kurt's entries on his diaries are fictional stories, but includes interviews with her mum, sister and even his father. Of course also Tracey Marander and Krist and obviously Courtney.

The original Aberdeneen is also one of the soggiest and miserable places too, funny that

Kurt Cobain reinvented the meaning of cool

Kurt Cobain was the voice of a generation. He was to his generation what Elvis, James Dean and Jim Morrison were to theirs.

It's a shame, the phenomenal singer took his life in 1994. He would of been on top of the music world, if he was still alive.

What happened to Matt pinfield??!!

I usually like "the dark side of" series. But this 90's one seems a step too far into the VH1 'telezine" territory.

This style of documentary about Nirvana has been made over and over. YAWN.

Well, they were the biggest act. People remember them, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, and Alice in Chains, but unless you lived in Seattle or the Pacific Northwest you probably weren't familiar with the Germs, Mudhoney, Screaming Trees, Meat Puppets, or Sunny Day Real Estate. But once they blew up, every record label was looking for a band with a grungy sound, and while there were some successful bands li!e Stone Temple Pilots and Smashing Pumpkins, the rest of them were either copycats or wannabe stars that weren't nearly as good.

Suicide Don't sound like a rise to me.
