anyone see nirvana as their first gig???? anyone see them at all....? anyone friends with courtney love when she lived here?

A 30 something year old guy I know who owns a bike shop and is a pure legend of a headcase saw them in Cork (i think?) or someplace else when they played Ireland.

I didn't see them but I have the bootleg of them from Sir Henry's Pub in Cork when they played..

 

[taubstumm]

I didn't see them

i'm not really so surprised that you didn't see them.. that gig was in 1989 or so; you would've been two or three years old

p.s. i never saw them either

 

[D0njo]

Negative creep from "The year punk broke" video sonic youth did was shot at the Sir Henry's gig. Apparently the Top Hat gig was recorded too (audio), but the bootleg never surfaced.

didnt they play in dun laoghrie (not spelt right, i know) ? theres a video of that about somewhere, or is that the place your on about dregin ? cause theres defo a heap of irish bootlegs about i have/had most somewhere just not sue where they are could have thrown em out when moving all those times over the last few years,

 

[dregin]

Aye the Top Hat was in Dun Laoighre. I have Dublin, Belfast and Cork bootlegs.... was there more than one gig in Belfast? Fairly sure there's no audio or video from the Top Hat gig... Yeah, just checked. Here're some pics from the gig though:

im nearly definetly sure i had a video from that one really shit quality though, and looking at those pics makes me even more sure, could have sworn i came across it on the net before as well

 

[dregin]

Well that site is the definitive guide for Nirvana bootlegs. I have a real shite quality video of the point gig lieing around somewhere, could have been that?

Just one gig in belfast,in the Kings Hall,the one mentioned on the back of The Teen Spirit 12" in the art college was rescheduled for the Kings Hall one.
