River Phoenix and Keanu Reeves were backstage that night

[@waltloggins8578]

How do you kno this friend? Really curious

[@dc8643]

It’s was noted in some Nirvana books.

[@michaelburton4254]

Wholesome Keanu chungus 100

[@patriciomartinotti5694]

After a 20 years pursue of this fact, I got an answer finally yesterday, reading it on a Carrie Borzillo Nirvana book.

[@rychcorporhate]

Yeah, Keanu Reeves, showed up backstage at the Nirvana Gig and was looking forward to meeting Kurt, but Kurt blew him off, and told Nirvana's Road Crew not to let him backstage into Nirvana's Dressing Room, as Kurt had no desire to meet a "Hollywood" Star (so goes the story I heard)....

[@lukasmhenhosky143]

Can you imagine going to see Pearl Jam, Nirvana, and the RHCP on New Year’s Eve???? I am fortunate to have seen Nirvana live in 93, but I would pay easily 10K for a concert ticket to see all three of these bands the same night. I am not rich either lol! Awesome video to whom posted!

[@Gavin_jk]

which 93 concert did you see? You're so lucky...

[@kimonf]

I got to see this show for free! I was living in the Lower Haight and my Roommate had an extra ticket! We got a ride with two girls but then we lost them in the crowd, took the bus home after the show and New Year's!

[@FoFrx]

I was there. It was a great show

[@leroymasochist]

I was on the floor. The crowd was going crazy during Nirvana.

[@jordanangle9666]

I was there New Year’s Eve alameda high

[@vaibanez17]

This is Nirvana with energy, not burnt out, still fresh. It shows. The quality is amazing. Best live version of Aneurysm. What a show.

[@koleboydtoomanyhumans3639]

Burnout is hardly the word to use have you heard “You know you’re right”? I think disillusioned would be a better term

[@patrickhayes3099]

This was my best NYE experience ever! Well worth the 4 hour drive & sleeping in my truck.

[@kriddaz]

Everyone showed up to see RHCP that night, then went home huge Pearl Jam and Nirvana fans.

[@hlshanno]

I was at this show, too! This is so true - we were already RHCP and Nirvana fans, but I went and bought Ten the next day. Such an amazing night.

[@bradjustin2573]

kriddaz I wouldn't bought nothing a crappy band like toe jam puts out

[@rebeccalebar7137]

kriddaz I was at this show! Best memories of a great night

[@pyrosteria9864]

i would've just went for PJ and Nirvana, IMO the RHCPs suck

[@mailecarvalho7835]

that was my exact experience except i went for rhcp and pearl jam and now i don’t even listen to either... but nirvana is still pretty much all i listen to

[@stevelucero9047]

I was at this show. Nevermind had dropped in September... and the buzz for them was pretty huge in the Bay Area. They were SO ON. I was across the arena, stage high in the seats... so I could see the band across a see of standing peeps. I've never seen a crowd react to a band the way this crowd reacted. You could feel the floor flex as people jumped up and down in unison from the opening of Drain You... it was pure joy.

[@ross1880]

I was there I lost my shoe in the pit during Nirvana at the end of the show it was on-stage and I asked a roadie to throw it back.

[@betterhadit1144]

Did he?

[@leroymasochist]

I was at this show. Incredible! I was with my girlfriend, heading down a ramp to the floor during "Aneurysm." I remember a fight was starting. Right in front of me this guy got punched in the jaw. Then a crowd surged that way. I pulled my gf the other way and we went closer to the front. The crowd went wild during School. "NO RECESS!"

[@GothBoi]

damn Kurts playing and singing is incredible here always is but big level of music enthusiasm here it shows big time great upload

[@startervisions]

yeah it's great that for this big of a show for Pearl Jam and Nirvana, and in general Seattle the fucking scene

[@user-fb6cw6cb2i]

Nirvana, RHCP, Pearl Jam and River Phoenix and Keanu Reeves backstage. I would have loved to be there that night. This is everything I would have wished for.

[@akabara1237]

what did river and keanu doing on backstage?

[@user-fb6cw6cb2i]

@@akabara1237 River was close friends with Flea from RHCP so i'm guessing he invited them. Flea was also in the movie My Own Private Idaho with River and Keanu.

[@tayemarshall]

My buddy and I were in the bleachers on the side, when Nirvana came on. We looked and each other and said "What the fuck is this"? Then ran to the front of the stage. We knew we were witnessing something BIG.

[@htimsenwahs]

Kurt threw an orange Dunlap pick into the crowd...landed on the guy's hoodie in front of me. Thanks. Fun souvenir! Great show!

[@khaaleliilighntingcoronado9009]

Man, us true nirvana fans can know they had some shows on complete fire bursting through every song so aggressively beautiful. Some examples ( Live and Loud, Reading, Paridiso, The Paramount) but this concert is witnessing a band in its true brightest form as a star. As Nirvana fans alot of us can agree this is their best show.

[@Overlorddz]

Both Reading shows, Live and Loud, Paramount and this are NOT their best shows!!! Just cause there's better production doesn't make it better performance.

[@khaaleliilighntingcoronado9009]

@@Overlorddz why say anything other than nirvana is a great band and this is a great performance. Chill out vato

[@khaaleliilighntingcoronado9009]

@@Overlorddz don't work under construction, but over it

[@dc8643]

This is easily the best Kurt ever sounded live imo.

[@tomasorellana5248]

A true phenomenon. The last seconds of this footage, all that crowd (yeah, Pearl Jam and RHCP played also) but many people went to see them. impresive what Nirvana acomplished in matter of months. January 1991, a small gig in Olympia, a year later playing on Saturday Night Live to millions of people.

[@carplanetdotcom]

I WAS THERE!

[@DavidTremblay-c3q]

It was our senior year of high school, and a bunch of us went. Rented a couple of cheap hotel rooms in the city to crash and got there early. I remember sitting on the Cow Palace floor before the concert started, and the sound guy was playing a lot of Fugazi while we waited. I fell in love. Hadn't heard of Pearl Jam before this either, but we all left fans. As you can tell, Nirvana killed! It was one of the soundtracks of the year. I remember the mosh pit was a swirling galaxy of sweaty bodies and sharp elbows. I would dip in for a couple minutes then retreat back to my girlfriend after I was sufficiently bruised and exhausted. How great to hear this again here! Thought it was all lost to time. Also remember RHCP being my third favorite performance of the night.

[@TheReflection82]

I could listen to "School" 8.000 times. Brilliant.

[@danebraimage]

That's the BEST live version i've heard of Smells Like Teen Spirit , Kurt really put everything into that !!! The little crowd reactions you can hear make it even better during the song.

[@FelixWheatfield]

I loved when they all threw equipment at each other at the same time there at the end. It's like an angry musician's fist bump.

[@fenderjaguar]

Love this show.

[@rydendurte]

Chad smith was on XM today talking about this show and how it was such an unforgettable experience when the intro to Teen Spirit started and how the crowd absolutely lost their shit. Amazing story, had to look it up. Happy I did this is the best I’ve ever heard them sound live.

[@chito2294]

i was there. great show. 2nd show ever. 14 years old

[@patriciomartinotti5694]

did you gaze River Phoenix?

[@massimofrola5679]

I love this version of Aneurysm

[@williambeckham7703]

They were ferousios!

[@Aidan-fv4bb]

Dude I can’t get over Kurt’s voice it’s so powerful it’s not worn yet and it’s just his not auto tune or studio or whatever just amzing

[@feltyash6484]

Kurt never used auto tune lmao i think you mean overdubs

[@luisgerardonunez4940]

This live perfomance and Del Mar fairgrouds are the Best!!!!

[@atilarufo]

Might be my favourite Nirvana live show

[@patriciomartinotti5694]

3:16 what the hell is doing the boy crouched down? I wonder if isnt' River Phoenix. He continues right there by 41:00. it seems a stage-guy but on the first frontal shot you can see his James Dean look-hairstyle like River's Mike Waters (My Own Private Idaho)

[@bootlegcowboys]

I was opposite side of the arena hoping to capture the entire 3 band bill. I capture the 30min Pearl Jam set wait for Nirvana. They get 2 songs in and then security swarms my area to shut me down and take the tape. Glad someone else got this!

[@tylerwilliams1625]

40:02 Kurt playing Run To The Hills haha

[@startervisions]

This is more like Nirvana playing Halftime at the Superbowl!!!!! ALT ROCK XTRAVAGANZA

Such a great period for the band, although Kurt had started to falter a little. Best live band ever, but sure I'm biased.

A música 'School' foi a mais tocada. Se não me engano, foram mais de 250 vezes. Não sei a resposta da sua pergunta, mas usando isso de base, devem ter sido mais de 500 shows, pelo menos.
