Nirvana
FireAid (January 30, 2025)
A benefit concert is being held tonight the Intuit Dome and the Kia Forum in Inglewood to raise money to help the people who were affected by the wildfires in Southern California. There are dozens of amazing performances from some of my favorite artists, including Alanis Morissette, Stevie Nicks, Green Day, Sting, No Doubt, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Stevie Wonder among many others.
All of the performances were incredible, but the highlight for me was the reunion of Nirvana, with Dave Grohl on drums, Pat Smear on guitar, Krist Novoselic on bass, and four amazing women standing in for the late Kurt Cobain. They did four songs. The first was Breed, with St. Vincent. The second was School with Kim Gordon. Next was Territorial Pissings with Joan Jett. Finally, with Krist on the accordion, Kim Gordon on bass, and Dave's daughter Violet Grohol on vocals, they closed out their set with an incredible performance of All Apologies.
