Nirvana Members Perform at Small Brooklyn Club Following Rock Hall of Fame Ceremony
Those in attendance at Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceremony at the Barclays Center arena last night were certainly treated to a nice surprise when the surviving members of Nirvana performed with various female singers to close out the event. But an even bigger thrill came for those lucky enough to make it into a tiny Brooklyn bar for an after-party where the Nirvana members performed a full set!
As we reported earlier, Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic and Pat Smear performed with Joan Jett ('Smells Like Teen Spirit'), Kim Gordon ('Aneurysm'), Annie Clark ('Lithium') and Lorde ('All Apologies') at the Rock Hall ceremony in the massive Barclays Center. But following that performance, the three surviving Nirvana rockers took the party to the intimate Saint Vitus bar to once again jam with guest singers.
At the small club, they were not only once again joined by Joan Jett, Kim Gordon (Sonic Youth) and Annie Clark (aka St. Vincent), but also Deer Tick's John McCauley and Dinosaur Jr.'s J. Mascis. While various outlets are reporting between 15 and 19 songs were performed, the latest setlist to be posted on the usually reliable setlist.fm can be seen below along with a few video clips of the club show.
