Perhaps this is a bigger deal to me because I live in Ann Arbor and frequently play at the Blind Pig and Nirvana is my favourite band ha'sides the Beatles, and ALSO I don't know if this is old news or what, but a video of Nirvana's performance at the Blind Pig in 1990 has recently surfaced. I've always wanted to see this... I think there is an audio bootleg floating around somewheres, but this is the foist I've heard of a video. NEEEEEAAAAATTTT!!!

Just in time to get me super-pumped for The Boys Themselves's's's show (yes I'm using this unprecedented Nirvana video to hyper-spam my show) at the Pig on June 30, WHEREIN we were already planning to cover "On A Plain".

YOU GUYS SHOULD COME!

Yer pal,

I've always thought it was cool to find bootlegs from places I would hang out. I lived in New Haven and had a Nirvana show from Toad's Place and thought it totally sounded like Toad's Place. Something about the acoustics.

Dang dude! That's awesome. Working on flyers tonight... tell you what, if you're SURE you're coming, I'll put you on the guestlist! I only have one spot, but you're a pal, so let me know!

Hopefully I'll have my damn Tele by then, too, which I'm gonna put in Drop D for "On A Plain".

I'll rally up some friends to go with me, for sure. I mention that Grand Rapids concert every now and again to my buds so they should be stoked as well!

I know the feeling. Nirvana played with sonic youth on that 91' tour in my city, I'd punch myself in the balls to see a video.

:wha?: Wait Kurt isn't playing drums in the Foo Fighters? I thought they just switched places.
