Here's What It Was Like To See Nirvana In 1991

The birth of a grunge revolution.

By Sabrina Fernandez

Published 2 months ago in Feels

The year is 1991, and Nirvana is on the rise. But they weren’t just another like any other band, they were like a cultural phenomenon waiting to happen. Before Nevermind sent them from shady clubs to arenas, they were still raw, unpredictable, and dangerous on stage. 


Their shows were sweaty, chaotic, and often on the edge of collapse, with Kurt Cobain leading the band, Krist Novoselic swinging his bass around, and Dave Grohl pounding the drums, the show was bound to be one the crowd would never forget. 


To see Nirvana in 1991 was to witness a band caught in the beginning of their journey, clawing their way up from the underground grit, only to be hit by sudden mainstream fame. The moment right before they became worldwide legends.
