Beschreibung
"Experiencing Nirvana" is a photo journal, grunge rock micro-history, and an inside look into a crucial eight-day period in the touring life of Nirvana. In the last days of 1989, the young band goes from breaking up in Rome to winning over the influential British music press at Sub Pop s LameFest U.K. showcase in London, setting the stage for their imminent popularity. At the end of a grueling six-week European tour to promote their "Bleach" debut, the band was exhausted and Cobain frustrated and downcast. Despite a stolen passport and an attempt to leap from a 14-foot speaker tower, Cobain managed to continue to London. Opening for Tad and Mudhoney at the Astoria Theatre on November 27, 1989, Nirvana s heart-pounding performance won over the crowd. The powerful London music press proclaimed that Nirvana to be Sub Pop s answer to the Beatles. Within two years, the band would become the biggest rock act of their generation. This is the photographic story of the breakthrough that almost never happened.
