I understood VERY well how lucky I was to be there. Sleeping in a flooded tent. Stood in the middle of the field on an upturned oil drum with my best mates and a yellow waterproof shielding us from the rain. We knew then we were a part of history and have dined out on the experience every since 👌🏻

[@ivoryjoker007]

​@LizNewtonZHUCHI yup I've been dining out on this too and I remember the floods well! We were at Reading in 1990 too which was a scorcher, but we saw only a fraction of the bands as we spent the majority of the time stoned on the banks of the Thames, while we kept bottles of white Thunderbird cool in the river.

[@mrglitch987]

Me too but... After a while I researched smells like teen spirit and saw a video that explained a little about it. Kurt didn't expect the success of this song and expresses several things in a subliminal way, in short: He hated those teenagers who only saw a song as "fans" and so that's why he started playing Smells Like teen Spirt badly so that the " fans" leave. Im from Brazil and take it in google traductor i hope that's right.

Ever since Kurt said he didn't like Smells Like Teen Spirit, every Nirvana fan feels the need to agree with him and say it sucks because they have taken idol worship beyond the point where they can have their own opinions. Stop telling people that they're not a true fan if this is their favorite, music taste is subjective. It's not my favorite Nirvana song, but I'd put it as one of their best. A proper anthem that everyone should stop putting so much pressure on themselves to not like. End of.

When Krist stops playing right before the pre-chorus at 2:40, just sounds awesome despite being such a small touch

[@melchiorhoffman]

Notice that he's playing bass without a pick, using only his fingers (rather flawlessly, I might add) -- during the second verse, a bit earlier than 2:40. This must have been unplanned; it was normal for him to use a pick. I have surmised that he must have dropped a pick, and that small dropout that you have astutely noticed at 2:40 must have been the moment when he reached for a backup one.

[@TheSolication]

In an alternate reality there's a band called Nirvana whose singer and composer is Krist Novoselic and he composed the hit "More than a feeling". They sometimes played a skit of Boston's hit "Smells like teen spirit" for fun.
