The Story Behind Dave Grohl's FIRST Nirvana Gig! (October 11th 1990) 

Not nameless tho

@@skylersvlogs8533 lmao

Ummm, yah cameras were pretty common back in the 90s...

It's 90s. Almost every family had at least an analog pointshoot camera.

Theres so many that public hasn't seen too

true. but i will always prefer chad channing.

@@christinelikeschrysanthemums You wont regret it. Especially when they were live, chad channing would do some uncanon drum fills to the original song that would sound amazing.

@Juanito G What you're saying is nonsense and it's totally biased. Chad never gets the respect he deserves, Dave walked in on the Nevermind recording and basically just re-did what Chad had already done. And most importantly Chad had always been humble about his time in Nirvana and has never shown any animosity towards the band, he always says he's happy to have played a small part in something that became so big later on.

@@rive3051 but Dave re-did the drums and added his touches/ style and then Nevermind blew up. Even Dave at the Rock N Roll hall of fame induction ceremony gave Chad credit. I think it's just preference. I personally like how Dave goes so hard on the drums. But all people that were in the band played a part. Dave also added backing vocals which I think helped nevermind reach the next level. But that is my opinion.

@@rive3051 yeah but your really cool and hip

Can you feel my love buzz?

@@andrewt836 ayyyy, is that your favourite song off of Bleach? Or do you just like the cover (the song was originally by Shocking Blue)

Buzz Osborne is the Malcolm McLaren of grunge.

@@alukuhito ngl, had a mental blank about who that was, but then I remembered... SEX PISTOLS MANAGER, and I was like “how could I forget one of the most important person in Punk Rock”.

By 1992, hair metal was definitely dying out, even in the North American white suburbs. Most kids had gone "alternative" by then. You have to remember just how big Disintegration was when it came out, which was 1989. New Order was a huge band. All sorts of electronic music, including Depeche Mode, who were already veterans by that point. For some, this music was too new and strange, so non-Nirvana grunge filled that spot - Pearl's Jam, Soundgarten, Alice's Chains, etc. Nirvana was the band that brought everyone together - undeniable rock for everyone. Somehow fresh, yet keeping the spirit of rock. It was alternative, yet it was classic. It was metal, but it was punk. It was noisey, but it was melodic. They were the last great rock band, and died off just as the internet was becoming a thing. They were the last of an era in rock.

I wish the complete video would surface! You were lucky to be there and witness this awesome show

Me to!👍🏽 North Shore Surf club, was there weekly! Best show at the club was Fits of Depression opening for Mudhoney!

That is cool .

@@metalmtn Fitz were quintessential Oly punk. Thank you Mikey for putting it out there for so long.

Nicholas Ruiz easily amused

@@jamesball5743 agreed. It wasn't that funny.

gave me an aneurysm

Made me shit my pants

They knew he was in a band called Dain Bramage

Do you usually hang around people that try to bullshit you into believing you're something that you're not?

It's actullay pretty good! Obvisously its just switching some letters around but it's still pretty good name!

DG isn't as creative as JB ... he'd never come up with Black Dog for example. Chad was more creative too IMO even though DG was a better drummer.

Drummer for Mudhoney.

How did you do it?

ikr

Dude theirs another stage dancer at a diff show. He looked like the bango kid from Deliverance and spaz danced real hard.lol

Yeah I think he said he pretended that it was the drums. He basically wrote it like a kick snare pattern.

@@christinelikeschrysanthemums Sort of. It's more in the strums and the dynamics in the rhythm (i.e. hitting one chord harder then the next two and then harder again etc etc) where you can feel a kick / snare groove in the way he plays it.

You alright bro? I felt like I had a stroke reading that ..

@The SNES Man Except Mudhoney were already breaking up as Steve Turner was going back to school in the fall of 1990. After being made a fool of by Kurt and Krist who lead him to believe he was Nirvana's new drummer Danny eventually joined The Screaming Trees for a short while. Mudhoney then reformed after Steve changed his mind in early 1991. All of this is covered in the official Mudhoney documentary from a few years back. Peters was none too impressed with Kurt and Krist's lack of honesty.

Krist and Kurt made the band together. Idk if you can just kick out one of the creators and they were really good friends

which 1st ? there were as many as 4 drummers before Grohl

He was simply not good enough.

How childish!

If firing an alright drummer for an amazing drummer is all that stood between you and millions of dollars I’m sure you’d do exactly the same thing👌

@@bigbowlowrong4694 kurt was a great guitarist but no jimi hendrix...all about the right time n right place...sid was a shite bassist but made it

@@pleidiolwyfimwlad2104 original bassist has play in back room, on shows, until Sid didnt learn to play, Sid was drummer, i doubt he knew how to play bass when he came

@@vilimbubas1302 exactly..glenn matlock

@@bigbowlowrong4694 exactly

This was more instrumental to the creation of foo fighters cause nirvana was going to happen no matter who the drummer was. But he did improve harmonies live even though that wasn't the difference between making it or not. Just kinda love chad's whole vibe too ✌

No way, Nirvana needed Dave’s power on the drums, sure nirvana still would have been big but the energy Dave brings is amazing

@@nirvanarocks83 Only reason he ended with Nivarna is bc Kurt saw him in La 89, he knew his name, so when he called Kurt it was obvious whats gonna happened, i have never hear Dave said any patterns are his, bc he was just rhythm machine and that was idea of Kurt, killing rhythm section but stay simple so Kurt can point out his guitar sound and insane feedback together with his lunatic voice

I always say this when I hear the one moron crying they like chad more .. Go watch radio friendly unit shifter from the live and loud show .. chad, although fairly good at creating drum fills, couldn’t do this to save his life. There is a reason he was replaced ..

Chad was good at creating but not so much at executing ther parts he created. A good drummer makes a band ebb and flow. Chad just wasn't smooth. I say this as a drummer and guitarist myself and having personal experience in the songwriting and performing end of things. Sometimes drummers just don't fit. They're the hardest part of the band to secure. So many issues with drummers over the years. Chad's the Pete Best of Nirvana. Lol. Close but no cigar. I found that drummers who play other instruments write for the song and drummers that don't have a harder time. Really any musician that plays multiple instruments in my experience does better in a band setting. They tend to be well rounded and level headed.
