Kurt was a badass

[@beatnikbird9769]

This video is a good example of one of the many reasons why I love Kurt so much. He was who he was, and didn't care what anyone thought. Kurt is a huge inspiration to me, and I wish he was still here! Nirvana is my all time favorite band, and I would've LOVED to see them in concert. 💜💙💜💙

[@casaraku1]

and he did not care about his health, the band and his family.... someone to admire

[@speccle1790]

@casaraku1 get a life man or get out of the Nirvana comment sections

[@isoldmysoulnowwheresmytale6945]

casaraku1 we have a lot of reason to believe that Kurt could have been murdered and even if he wasn’t as someone who has attempted suicide I can tell you that when you are suicidal you aren’t thinking like your normal self and think your friends and family would be better off without you.

[@beatnikbird9769]

@casaraku1 He is someone for me to admire, for the reasons I listed above. Anyone that has ever heard of Kurt Cobain is well aware of his flaws, as that is something the public will never let him live down. Which is absolutely ridiculous, considering the fact that we all have flaws, and he's been gone for 26 years now. Even the most clean-cut, and seemingly well put-together individuals deal with issues. And no one would know the difference, unless they talked about it. Kurt was very open about who he was. And for that, either people loved him, or they hated him. They related to him, or they turned him into a criminal, and shit on him. Kurt Cobain was a human being...not much different from the rest of us. That being said, your comment was highly insensitive and hypocritical. And there is nothing wrong with looking past someone's flaws, to admire their exceptional qualities, and the beautiful things they created. "I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not." -Kurt Cobain

[@chanceishikawa1699]

He obviously cared what people thought

This is simply amazing. The perfect match between bass (Krist) and drums (Dave); the powerful appearance of Kurt; the clothes; Kurt’s voice; the power with which Dave plays the drums. Everything perfect! A great piece of a great show!

[@jpvcastro1]

That was the most cathartic performance from o rock band I've ever witnessed. Kurt Cobain was so mind blowing away. He basically put on a performance that was a statement against the concept of the festival itself, which aimed huge crowds and was sponsored by a big time cigarette company, . Other than that he appeared to show cold turkey symptons a like, said a well know hardcore singer that partied with him. Smack in Brasil was real hard to find. That was a moment in time to be alive. Depressed artist. Icon of a generation, performing in a tragic beautiful and autentic way. I remember feeling astonished during the concert

[@Tomnedreb]

Saw this for the first time when I bought the Live tonight sold out vhs back in the 90's. We thought it was hilarious, and so typical that they do some crazy stuff that had actually had some purpose too. In this case a protest to the macho attitude among South-American fans.

“I would like to get rid of the homophobes, sexists, and racists in our audience. I know they're out there and it really bothers me.” ― Kurt Cobain "If you're a racist, a sexist, a homophobe, we don't want you to buy our records."― Kurt Cobain "I would like to get rid of the homophobes, sexists, and racists in our audience. I know they're out there and it really bothers me." ― Kurt Cobain Kurt Cobain was against sexism, against racism, and against homophobia; Kurt Cobain was a feminist activist.

[@TylerDurdenIsRad]

Yeah that's what I'm saying

[@Jezurielle]

Kurt saw women as superior, generally, and wrote about it. He thought women were treated like shit by 70's-90's society, and wore dresses to show his hatred of macho men, and all the damage they do. It was also because he said he thought he looked pretty in dresses, and thought men should be allowed to be as feminine as they want.

[@emilybrooke3095]

@J Tommy....Kurt was never told to wear dresses. He said in quit a few interviews that he liked wearing dresses and that he wore them around the house a lot because they were comfy.

[@emilybrooke3095]

@J Tommy I don't know much about kid cudi. I know he is heavily influenced by Kurt. He has a tattoo of Kurt and in the few interviews i have seen of him he has always said he is one of the main musicians he has always looked up to. I think he was honestly just paying a tribute to kurt but everyone turned it into something else.

[@goldenpig0711]

I bought this on vhs tape when I was 14. It was at a music store on the boardwalk that sold bootlegs. Good times, Still have the tape. L7 and a bit of Alice in chains are on there as well. Maybe there was a tour?

[@indepthliterature]

A sad and gritty nirvana performance but arguably one of the best. Pure aggression and realism, and great performance from all members. I get the sense Kurt couldnt hear his voice or something in the monitors which could have resulted in the straining of his singing. Im sure there are other issues both personal and performance related that explains it. Maybe the onstage sound guy just goofed a little but either way its a powerful Nirvana performance
