No wonder he went through so many drummers cuz he knew what kind of sound he wanted and it's obvious cuz of how well he could play the drums. That's amazing.

[@Polyfusia]

He's totally dicking around on drums here for fun. He wasn't a skilled or well rehearsed drummer but he clearly liked to bang around on them from time to time. I'm the same way. It's never going to be my main instrument but it's fun to bash around on the kit. Cathartic.

[@alec7364]

He played the drums about as well as he could play guitar. He had it down, just no crazy technical fills

[@OrbaDaBorba]

@@Polyfusia He drummed in bands before lol, out of high school. he was also a drummer in his high school music class, its just a sound check.

[@Br_Hanmer]

What nonsense. He only had two permanent drummers. Dave took over from Chad.

[@HGZMO]

@@alec7364that’s a completely wrong statement.

[@cloud9backpacker]

I find it endlessly fascinating just watching those guys go through the "drudgery" of sound-check. The band dynamic and, of course, Kurt's general demeanour is almost hypnotic - especially when knowing how it ultimately played out.

[@peytonlong5573]

Kurt wasn’t as bad of a drummer as he claimed tbh, I get he was a perfectionist despite the image portrayed of him

Back in the day (early 2000s) we had nirvana VCDs. They were burned dvds of nirvana live shows like this that people would trade through torrents. This was before KZbin and it felt like finding a buried treasure every new VCD I traded for

[@all_invite_0hm]

Right! I have over 100 Nirvana bootlegs and VCD's I bought off an old friend around 2002. He was HEAVILY into the trading scene for awhile but was hneeded the cash at one point and I ended up acquiring his collection. I always wanted to get into that, but never did. It's pretty amazing how thorough and cataloged that stuff was.

[@oranjjjggg]

By far the best Nirvana video I’ve seen! All the interaction and Dave on the drums. Amazing!

[@vonclohk507]

Kurt seems a bit smacked out during the rehearsal. Glad it wore off and turned into rage by the time the gig started.

[@RJMelling]

Some nice drumming by Kurt, seems super relaxed behind the kit ...but then Dave plays that short little groove at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="111">1:51</a> and... oh man! The power!

[@krisfrederick5001]

I always wondered where the shot of Kurt with the cigarette in his mouth came from as it wasn't in the show. There's some great backstage footage directly after and Kurt is just walking away from Courtney. It's a shame he couldn't get away.

[@OpheliaDarkling]

Dude go outside

[@niallhussey8023]

These Courtney/Geffen bots are pathetic.

[@sckl8585]

During the rehearsal of Serve the Servants and Rape Me, Kurt smoked... I think the shot must have been from those moments. I also think that it's one of the great pics of Kurt smoking while playing guitar.

[@--thatbih]

Anyone else noticed he picked it off the ground?

they massacred the live and loud show on the mixing end, i can't find it now (probably dmca takedown) but there was an alternate audience recording of live and loud that sounded WAYYY different, not just mic position different, but exaggeratedly different.

[@felixthelmocevallosmorales41]

Guitarist Al Barile is one of the founding fathers of American hardcore. His Boston band SS Decontrol (SSD) pioneered straight-edge hardcore, changing not just the landscape of hardcore punk but global youth culture. SSD released their debut, The Kids Will Have Their Say, on XClaim and Ian MacKaye’s Dischord label in 1982. Roughly 1,900 copies were pressed and quickly sold out. If you’d like one today, they sell for an average of two grand on Discogs. The Kids Will Have Their Say was never pressed again but remained available via bootlegs and on sites like KZbin. Barile and his bandmates never went after anyone for the streams, reasoning that the music was in circulation and finding listeners. Lately, though, Barile has faced challenges that have forced him to consider his legacy, including a forced retirement due to back pain and cancer. More than four decades later, that reissue will arrive next week via Trust Records. Decibel has heard it, and, boy, it sounds amazing. After so many years of subpar streams, it’s nice to hear the nuance and detail of the recording. All the variants of the album are sold out. The reissue was remastered from the safety version of the original master tapes. Engineers worked around mold and water damage to renovate the recording. Hardcore fans of all generations will appreciate their efforts. Barile talked to us about SSD’s debut and the staying power of Straight Edge. How did this project start? Was it the lack of access to a proper copy of the album? The album came out in 1982. We made about 1,900 of them, and they sold out in a few months. We picked them up in New Jersey, drove back to Boston, and dropped copies off along the way. The record almost sold out by the time we got home. Initially, I was focused on our second record. Back then, it didn’t make sense to repress the album. We just moved on to other things. I considered releasing it in 1992 when I had a second band, Gage. I thought it might be a good time to put it on my label and help Gage. Ultimately, I kept it pure and didn’t use SSD to prop up my other band. People contacted me once a year to put it out, but I never saw a reason why. It was always available online, and I never told anyone to take it down. I had an idea for a greatest hits at one point, but then CDs started fading away. In 2018, I was forced out of my job (as a lifelong mechanical engineer) because of my health. (Years later) I talked to Keith Morris of Circle Jerks, who hooked me up with Trust Records. They matched where I wanted to go. I’m a creator and not a seller, so I left it with the professionals. Like many Misfits 45s, SSD’s debut is worth thousands. I’ve seen our records sell for more than $2,000. There is always a market for our album.

[@xvaderxkiller5190]

I don’t agree with that. Pat added a lot and let Kurt be more relaxed on the guitar as he was doing vocals. Also Pats energy on stage is so contagious and entertaining. He was a great addition and it’s unfortunate we couldn’t hear them play together in a 4th album.
