Soul Asylum was around before Nirvana. They started putting out albums in the 80's. The only reason most never heard of them around that time was because they were a part of the underground scene which spawn grunge. So, to say he is a Kurt Wannabe is actually stating that you do not know your musical history.
Soul Asylum released there first album in 1983 so saying nirvana influenced them sounds stupid however they had zero commercial success until 1994s grave dancers union which does sound like Nirvanas Nevermind but who knows
fucking greedy corporations ,have take out of youtube, the greatest version of BACK DOOR MAN BY IGGY POP AND SOUL ASYLUM; SOMEONE TELL ME WHERE TO GET IT BACK PLEASE
The audio you can get on the Concert for the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. It's on there with their version of "Sweet Jane" when they're backing Lou. Hope this helps.
You're quite welcome. It's a damn good double disc. Only wish they'd put on the Beatles and Byrds covers the Gin Blossoms did, and let on Lou's dedication to Sterling Morrison before the song started. You don't get to hear Ig introduce Lou either, but the audio is there. That version of "I Wanna Be Your Dog" they segue into is the best I've ever heard. Ya listen to it and feel like you need a week long shower.
Does anyone still need some X-mas money? I registered at Fulltiltpoker com, entered the JUSTMORE Referral Code and received a staggering $ 600 for free!!! That´s gonna make great gifts for my girlfriend this year ;) Americans are welcome there!!
Just noticing the youngsters remarks about Dave as a Kurt wannabe. This is about as smart as Miss Teen South Carolina's "the iraq" remarks. I love the so-called grunge era, don't get me wrong, but Pirner was "grunge" long before Cobain. Cobain, but not all Seattle bands, lifted a lot of his style from Minneapolis bands like Soul Asylum, The Replacements, and Husker Du.
There was a lot of diversity in "grunge" anyway. I think that Soul Asylum and Nirvana actually had very little in common. Also, I think that all those "grunge" bands never thought of themselves as "grunge" before that marketing term was thought up by the press. But yeah, Soul Asylum's first album was made a whole 10 years before Nirvana's "Bleach".
I agree totally with ya'll....wasn't "loud fast rules" thier first album?...either way- what a great time. Every band back then held hands back down to what being American punk actually meant- doing your own thing.
Unless you were there and understood that STP, Soul Asylum, and Sound Garden were'n the same kind of bands, you're lost. bparpart, you said it exactly as it was, and is!!

WTF? I am one of Kurt Cobains Biggest Fans. hell i named my boy after him. But Dave is FAR from a wannabe Kurt.. they both totally had there own styles of music and of being.
so they both wore ripped jeans? ummm sooo did everyone back in those days. hell i still do.
dont talk shit. Kurt and Dave are both amazing artists in there own way. and i love them both.... *sexes*
You can also catch Soul Asylum right on the beach FREE and eats lots of seafood in the process at Hollywood Beach, Florida at the Clambake Festival on Sat. Sept. 29, 2007 at 9pm. The festival dates are Sept. 28, 29, 30, and other acts include The Romantics, New Orleans' own Porter Batiste Stoltz, and funky trombone brass band Bonerama. All FREE.
he's cracking up as wyclef goes fierce on the final chorus...
role reversals on the road to ruin by guys who know the story all too well...classic song...great performance... i hope no one makes you tube delete this...
I'm gonna take a wild guess here and say that ShoFyke is a 15 year old kid that just discovered the "grunge movement" and thinks that alternative music didn't exist before Nirvana.
Can someone tell me when this was filmed? In the concert video Matchbox 20 Live in Australia, Rob Thomas sings the chorus of this song during "Long Day." Who did it first?
What would make you even think to say that? Dave Pirner was making music long before Kurt Cobain came around. Soul Asylum was dubbed best live band in America before Nirvana even debuted.
Dude take a look at some of Soul Asylum's early performances from the 80's. Dave's always played and looked(other than when he had dreads) like that. Get a clue. I gaurentee you, Dave Pirner is not now, nor was he ever trying to be like, play like or look like Kurt Cobain.
It's a fact actually. Unless David Pirner saw the future and thought maybe if by the late 90's when Soul Asylum had dropepd in popularity, looking like Kurt Cobain could really help the band. Maybe a magazine cover!! Pull your head out.
you got a thing for dave pirner? fuck man i got my opinion and i really dont give a fuck about this. shit i don't even remember typing the original message, must have been drunk or something but it says my name so i must have done it.
wow everyone just shut the fuck up about him "looking" like kurt cobain how could he if he didnt even know him probably when he looked like that i hate how if guys have long blonde hair everyone thinks they are copying Kurt i love both bands and i'm a HUGE nirvana fan so just stfu ok and pay attention to the song not the looks
the seong is gone till november, came out after kurts death so i really think he would have heard of kurt cobain. by the way i was listening to nirvana since you were in diapers so dont try and come off righteous.
The point is anybody saying Dave is trying to look like Kurt is an idiot. I was istening to Soul Asylum before Nirvana was even a thought. Dave looked like this in the late 80's. Just look at any old footage or the videos. People are idiots to think he's trying to copy Kurt's look.
Soul Asylum rules!! Wyclef is cool too. I've alwasy liked that song but this version kicks. I love Dave's voice even if it's not "good" in the classical sense. Thanks for posting this.
jesus this guy is teeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrible!! wyclef saved the song
