Nirvana Rehearsal 1988

[AliceDelilahDude]

also, the lyrics to about a girl are completly different.... any one no what they were back then? I can't hear it..

[AliceDelilahDude]

why did they get rid of chad, he was good... :/

[krodoxk]

1988?

The date on the camera shows"1. 1. 87."

[xmanyxkevinx]

Í love how kurt moves his hips♥

[VaterRabe]

is this ajoke?

[5585steve]

@VaterRabe this is nirvana dude, before dave grohl, this is the beginning

[macskasegg]

...And noone in the room knew that they were hearing world classic songs from Nirvana...

[Matximus12345]

This is great. It's a buncha hicks in a room. This could be anywhere in America with any garage band pukes going nowhere. It gives you insight into why he fucking lost his mind when he became a world-famous millionaire. This dude came from shit. People lose their minds when they win/lose the lottery. He was just a scrappy kid with shit options - poor bastard.

[27buckethead]

they should of left 6:08 on the song,

[MrSkatekid333]

@beckabluesband its because the microphone was facing the wall, dumbass

[TheSPumpkin100]

00:49 Is that Tom Selleck?

[changeofaddress1]

i thought it was gary oldman

[aschnell79]

this is so awesome!!!! thank you!

[Capspar]

Happy birthday :)

[Fiakosorio]

We need the all complete show from this room... Almost I see the list... right there!!!

[Lachman0102]

Setlist to the right of Kurts head.

[beckabluesband]

K people, stop replying back to my comment on here. I get it now. He was singing to the wall for whatever reason. Sheesh!!! Give it a rest!!

[loriekirei]

Estranho,mas com a maturidade a personalidade de Dave e do Krist mudaram,parece que um trocou com a personalidade do outro,Dave mais feliz e desinibido e Krist mais retraido e talvez triste.

[non5en5e]

@loriekirei não é o Dave é o Chad. O Dave só entrou na banda em 1990

[wfc1987]

the acoustics are better in a room like that so his voice can reverberate off the wall back into the mic

[Leftymode1]

hes probably face the wall to read lyrics?

[Melvanaa]

what were they tuned at?

[bobbydj01]

0:52 - Greg Norton drops by.

[ni4egosebe]

Chad is a good drummer. I don't believe Kurt. He is LOUD!

[gtralisfr69]

humble beginnings

[anaflaviaxp]

3:33

krist brother ??

[oakforestboys]

Where can I buy this?

[beckabluesband]

Nobody wondered why Kurt is singing into a wall?

[Butown]

@beckabluesband he was self conscious on his singing

[ArthurStephenHicks]

@beckabluesband I read once that if you're singing into a wall it's easier to hear yourself amongst all the other shit going on in the room.

[PBANDSNOW]

@beckabluesband Thats where the set list was, and he was self conscince about his singing.

[rickt16]

@beckabluesband tabs hanging on the wall

[RoyaltyxMarie]

@beckabluesband Lol I think there's a mic in front of him.

[Davidzinuhaha]

@beckabluesband maybe for the acoustic

[1979rickfukingjames]

@beckabluesband Amps up his voice

[thijs199]

@beckabluesband I guess to seporate the sound of the vocal and the drums better. Also concentration problems for Kurt can be solved like this, maybe he started laughing when looking at Dave while singing xD

[nanadasna]

@thijs199 Dave joined Nirvana in 1990. You mean Chad.

[thijs199]

@nanadasna nevertheless you've got the message I think

[nanadasna]

@thijs199 sure, i'm just a wiseacre sorry ^^

[JorgeLinden]

@thijs199 This is Chad, not Dave.

[Manwithcam]

@beckabluesband So he could hear his voice bouncing back over the loudness of everything else.

[counterstrikeisgreat]

@beckabluesband because he was embarrassed???

[JorgeLinden]

@beckabluesband To get used to stage position, without looking to the drums. (Chad)

[heartshapedlife2]

@beckabluesband Because he's awesome like that.

[nunyabidnez2011]

@beckabluesband My guess is so that he can hear himself better - sound reflects off the wall. I do it sometimes when praciticing. Sing into a corner and I can hear myself over the music.

[davolo]

@beckabluesband One the lyrics are on the wall and he may not have decided on the final lyric arrangement.

Second in that much of a confined space feedback would be a hassle, especially with the volume to get over a drum kit and 2 amps, so to reduce they may have found the sweet spot there.

[ryno13373]

@beckabluesband he was to shy at first

[drummerjen]

@beckabluesband Because he will hear himself better. The singing reflects against the wall. Saxophone players sometimes play against a wall to hear themself better.

[scottelliottmusic]

@beckabluesband They are practicing staging....i think. Like he would have his back to them live. The strobe light.....Kurt jumping on the ground......they are practicing like its a live show.

[Drewer123]

@beckabluesband the mic is taped to the wall. they probably didnt have a mic stand

[kalydarow]

@beckabluesband or he's reading lyrics off the paper on the wall .....

[7mikethebike]

dude on the floor is like"i'm only here for the beer"

[JuggaloFaygoDrinker]

Why is his back to the crowd?

[kellymurphy79]

Yes, sorry, I meant to say "Big Long Now" and it was on Incesticide.

[TKoneseventeen]

whoever those two dudes are have the ultimate bragging rights. "i once saw nirvana with just two audience member"

[Schilltron30303]

these guys are pretty good but they could use a better drummer

[bringbackthe1960sppl]

@Schilltron30303 dude that blonde guy sings good and has an amazing fender mustang. where are there next preformance at?

[mrguycrap]

@bringbackthe1960sppl Heaven

[bringbackthe1960sppl]

@mrguycrap lol good one, you know i was being sarcastic in thatr comment right?

[mrguycrap]

@bringbackthe1960sppl Yeah ,still... sounded good, i had to say it ;P

[bringbackthe1960sppl]

@mrguycrap ya lol it could be hell though lmao jk

[lovalonband]

I've never hear of this band... who are they?!?!?!?!

[kellymurphy79]

I believe the last song is called "D7"......all these songs are on the album "Bleach"

[Gekbek]

@kellymurphy79 no the last song is called big long now its on incesticide

[Mariobizkit]

@kellymurphy79 d 7 wasn´t on bleach

[kellymurphy79]

I believe the last song is called "D7"

[Tobeshadow]

Two people's heads got scrambled by the awesomeness and hit dislike!

[mrguycrap]

Does anybody know the name of the last song?

[JuggaloFaygoDrinker]

@mrguycrap

Big Long Now.

[mrguycrap]

@JuggaloFaygoDrinker Thank you :]

I wish you the best 

[JuggaloFaygoDrinker]

@mrguycrap

No problem! :P

[TartuRockFanNr1]

About a Girl sounds very different

[itswhip]

at 1:32 Kurt's copy of Blue Cheer's Vincebus Eruptum.. awesome!

[itswhip]

@itswhip oh.. i guess it was Krist's

[liliputmace18]

i don't understand why Kurt didn't like Chad's drumming after this?i think i could have preferred chad than dave,don't get me wrong i also liked dave in a different level....but kurt should have kept chad!!

[liliputmace18]

i loved Love Buzz.....!!!

[PixelPwner]

andy kaufman actually faked his death and joined nirvana,fucking IDEOTS

[RandomOnlineDude]

Krist Novoselic had epic sideburns!

[ctullio]

Blue CHeer records yeh

[idamsi1]

i miss kurt...he was really happy back then

[pearljamporch]

why is kurt singing against the wall?

[sqwidink1]

@pearljamporch you think he should be singing to the drummer? The wall is going to be his future audience... n man does he know it... rip

[SuperMegabar]

@pearljamporch Because that's the only place where the mic doesn't pick up a shit load of feedback... 

[mandria09]

i really miss you Kurt, never wil be the same after you

[shadyworld666]

Chad has a killer smile at 3:19.just had to point it out

[TheSPumpkin100]

Is that Tom Selleck?

[SpamNapkin]

Don't film in the dark you DICK

[tintin4561]

way to all get your panties tied in a nod that ravensmead dude is obviously joking.

[rabeneick]

Yes, they had... for about 23 years :D

[pisces2able]

i wish i was there sitting too.

[610Roberto]

Nirvanaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa é o melhorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrr

[bloodtearsej]

why cant we invent time machine. i waanna be there...

[SadlyWatches]

a fucking gem!

[PivotMakeranimations]

is he singing to the wall?

[MarvellicusVonDunkel]

@PivotMakeranimations I think they're playing as if there's a crowd beyond the wall

[TahaMurataladdin]

@MarvellicusVonDunkel nonono. the mic is on that wall.

[monkeyman1512]

Actually, Kurt's mustang came from a garage sale. They found it bought it for like $50 because Kurt loved any left handed guitar he could find.

[DrumGuitarDude]

@monkeyman1512

According to Kurts Journals.

Kurt said that he and Krist once saw a band play, and kurt noticed the guitar, but didnt have the guts to ask them, if they wanted to sell it. So krist went and asked, and he got the reply "What? that crappy guitar? You can have it for (i dont remember how much) since we have our cool Ibanez" So they went to the bank, got the money and bought it.

[Justeatmytoast]

@DrumGuitarDude The publication of someone's minds is horrible. It should still private, so making money on his Jorunals is a shit. I wouldn't read it, it's private.

[westpsmity]

@Justeatmytoast His music was a probably the strongest publication of his mind possible.

[Justeatmytoast]

@westpsmity I agree.

[Nirvanaloverx333]

@xBenjaxGuitar Grohl didn't join the band till they started recording Nevermind. Chad channing was their drummer for a while, as well as others.

[junebuggy000]

A fender mustang jaguar,

Kurt's favourite guitar.

[jughfreind]

@junebuggy000 it's jaguar or mustang, they're diferent.

[junebuggy000]

@jughfreind Yeah, i know that they're different, but it still was kurt's favourite guitar.

I don't believe i have ever seem him break that guitar on stage, he got it from his auntie.

[TahaMurataladdin]

@jughfreind actually there was a guitar that (i think kurt designed) called Fender JagStang :) look it up

[xBenjaxGuitar]

where was Grohl?

[Fitna4Allah]

@xBenjaxGuitar Playing in the band SCREAM.

[Psychokiller69]

The album at 1:32 is Vincebus Eruptum by Blue Cheer. Fantastic Album. Eerie coincidence.

[giantsfan0220]

does anyone see that record at 1:32 against the wall. It looks alot like nirvana. you can see kurt in front dave on the left and krist on the right. Does any one else seethis!

[Grodyann]

@giantsfan0220 Dudem i stopped the video at 1:32 too, and then i saw your comment... Scary!

[TheMichaelOwnz]

Why is he singing to the wall?

[Grodyann]

@TheMichaelOwnz Cause if you havent got good speakers to the microphone, you can hear yourself if you shout to the wall!

[Kevman3322]

@TheMichaelOwnz well thats just where they had the mic haha

[diegoalba11]

whats the name of the first song?

[Kevman3322]

@diegoalba11 the first song is "love buzz"

[JackRuskin]

@Kevman3322 no shit

[Kevman3322]

@JackRuskin yeahh exactly, just no shit. haha that other guy didnt know

[JackRuskin]

@Kevman3322 haha okay. sorry i didnt read it all :P

[Justeatmytoast]

@Kevman3322 But it's a cover, so their first song is the 2nd recorded song.

[ravensmead]

[666BierBaron]

@ravensmead go back in time sucker^^

[PhyscoA]

FOCKING AMAZING!

[espet9]

It's fucking real

[Plozen]

I think Krist and Dave probably put these tapes out just to piss off Courtney

"OMFG WTF. KURT IS IN THAT VIDEO SO I OWN IT AND IM GOING TO RELEASE IT AS A BOX SET EVEN THOUGH THERE'S LESS THAN 5 SONGS!"

[CityofDreadfulDelite]

When they go into "About a Girl"... at around the 3:30 point... it's crazy good and totally unexpected.. just fucking insane to think this was YEARS before they hit it big.

[Freeki12]

Love BUZZ!

[ZyklonCable]

or this is just a fake vid---

[Plozen]

@ZyklonCable

Nope, it looks fairly real, since the film is aged quite a bit...

Remember, they did have a second guitar player back then, Dave Grohl wasn't drumming, and Kurt had long hair.

[ZyklonCable]

@Plozen

well... I know and the drumming guy really looks like dave chandler but for me it still looks like a fake <

..

[sandy8homeinthesun]

I think this was recorded at Krist's mothers beauty shop in the room above it actually...not at her house.
