I recently came across this photo of Nirvana with Frances Bean Cobain sitting on Kurt’s lap in front of a fireplace. I knew this fireplace looked familiar and then I finally placed it. It is in the guest house at Pachyderm Studios in Cannon Falls, Minneapolis where Nirvana recorded “In Utero” in February of 1993.
Here’s a photo of Dave Grohl and his wife Jordyn Blum whome he married in 2003. Blum must have read “The Secret” and used the law of attraction because nine years earlier as a 17-year-old model she appeared on the cover of Teen Magazine’s June 1994 issue.
Chris Cornell once wore his own band’s Soundgarden shirt in concert. Well Cornell also proudly wore the band shirts of a few other Seattle bands. Here he is wearing a couple Pearl Jam shirts.
Is this the best concert line-up ever??? Red Hot Chili Peppers “Blood Sugar Sex Magik Tour” with Nirvana and Pearl Jam as support bands. The Smashing Pumpkins were on the first leg of the tour from October 16, 1991 thru December 14, 1991 with Pearl Jam instead of Nirvana.
Nirvana MTV Unplugged in New York was filmed on November 18, 1993 but the DVD was not officially released until 2007. After the song “Something In The Way” as The Meat Puppets are getting situated, Kurt Cobain starts reading a magazine/booklet while on stage.
Dave Grohl like many other rock stars attended the Soundgarden concert on July 22, 2011 at the Los Angeles Forum in Inglewood. What makes Dave Grohl “Dave Grohl” is that fact that he watched the show from the pit with all the fans.
When Nirvana released the deluxe version of “Nevermind” in 2011, it included a disc called “The Devonshire Mixes”. These were rough mixes made in May of 1991, that producer Butch Vig put together during production of the album for the band to hear. They were called “The Devonshire Mixes” because they were mixed at Devonshire Sound Studios in North Hollywood, California
Dave Grohl made a super quick 3 second cameo appearance on a Season 3 X-Files episode that aired on February 23, 1996. His cameo is about twenty minutes into episode #17called “Pusher”. Grohl is shown walking through the lobby of the United States Bureau of Investigation with his now ex-wife Jennifer Youngblood. Get it??? X-Wife – X-Files.
Kurt Cobain used this left-handed 1965 Fender Jaguar in the Nirvana’s video for “Lithium” and live on many occasision. The guitar ended up in Hole’s “Doll Parts” video a few months after Kurt’s death in 1994.
Kurt Cobain wrote this announcement down in one of his journals after deciding to name his band Nirvana. What he did not realize was that there were two other bands already named Nirvana. A small unsigned Los Angeles based band and a UK based band.
