😅

You seriously didn't look up what reason might be behind a concert that bad like their wouldn't be anything about it and why if HE didn't feel well would they all play badly look it up its hilarious and they never weren't unpopular because of that or at all then because of Flea got all their popularity back all of a sudden they did it on purpose because the audience was awful to the opening act they left the stage crying and the guys then played the worst but most hilarious show I've ever seen like duh maybe because he didn't feel well they all played badly good lord that actually made sense when you made the video those words made sense and it's one of the biggest bands the there's not going to be nothing or no explanation about something like this but stop making it sound like they became unpopular by everyone and then Flea saved them and they got their fans all back again real fans know what happened but if your going to do a video about something documented do your research so you don't do things like assume because of one person not feeling well the entire band couldn't play well!😂😂

If you’ve seen him perform even with his bass, he never stands still. He got his name Flea because he was always jumping around on stage no matter what they were performing. He’s one of my favorite performers.

Trumpet was his original instrument before he switched to bass

@@shruggzdastr8-facedclown my guitar player plays trumpet

@@user-je4ff3cq9r: Are you sure it's not your 🎺-player who plays 🎸 on the side? 😏

Yeah cause one day he just pulled it out and I was thinking oh shit but he busted out into a Cake tune

Stupid ass robot narrated video lmao

😂

Oh this made me laugh. Thank you

Hilarious hahahaha😂

🤣🤣🤣

🎉🎉🎉🎉 😂😂😂😂, I see you, ...

You had never been and never will

But you just born in 2000 . Stop bullshittin kids

Yes. 😐

I remember

Of course thats how music careers work. One of the biggest bands around would suddenly lose all their fans for a bad show and then a trumpet solo saved their career 😂

​@@cavoryte6700I've seen it a million times. The trumpet trick is a century old industry tactic.

@@cavoryte6700 WITF has happened to peoples minds, to even think a bad set is enough to sink a career is even a thing, or where a word can get you cancelled, thank fuck am as old as I am, otherwise I'd be sunk and cancelled before I reached my 20s, I feel sorry for these poor kids today, a couple of decades from now and society will have become a giant hive mind.

@fredzep01 lol the only occasion I remember a bad show ruining someone's career was Millie Vanilli when the world found out they weren't actually singing thpse songs but were just good looking lip-syncers. And that's kind of justifiable as it was kind of a hoax on their fans.

@@pechondelgadosame thing happened to Suede, thankfully Sonya from Eastenders was about to save them.

No... He took it back when you fell asleep. You never got it back.

@@skelter1153 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 explains a lot hahah

Did you become popular again after you got your nose back?

@@anonymouse527 I was top of the world 👍

close call

Stupid. Lol 🤣

I was wondering why he looked different 😅

​@@StoicNature444 Hahah samee

I can see why the guy sweats like a fat person.

True

Kurt played the show like that on purpose because he was pissed at the crowd. Just FYI

That comment got me rolling

Good cuz Butthead would've ruined the show

​@@quit293BAHAHA

You a 🤡

you’re talking about 1992 argentina when the audience was trashing and booing Calamity Jane. I heard these 1993 brazil shows were bad because kurt couldn’t bring his usual drugs to brazil so he was on whatever random stuff they could get their hands on in pharmacies or from members of other bands on the hollywood rock tour.

@@turtle7633 Yeah. Kurt even called João Gordo, from the punk/hardcore band "Ratos de Porão" to know where he could find some heroin. He was desperate for some dope.

​@@joaoaugustolandim being dope sick hurts. Cant blame him.

Yeah sadly, nothing matters when you are dopesick and when you are high, coincidently nothing matters. I went on a lot of family vacations or outings and was so detached. I remember collapsing once while walking with my 90 year old great GMA because I had no strength. Was pretty embarrassing

​@aaronsmith4806 I know exactly what you mean on being detached on vacations or outings I've been there makes me sad that I missed all the family memories I should have been in the moment relishing it.

Yeah, cuz there aren't drugs in South America

@@penske_materialyup. No smack in Brasi in 90’.

Kurt não estava bem, pois ao chegar no Brasil ele descobriu que aqui não existia heroina então ele o Flea e o Lanney do AIC alugaram um avião e pagaram para um cara ir buscar a droga na Colombia, esse cara salvou os shows, pois os três estavam mal com a abstinencia.

​​@@maxymorzeszko8344 Kurt famously phoned Max Cavalera to ask him where to get Smack in Brazil, and Max promptly told him to ask Ratos De Porao singer João Gordo.

Just awful

Feels like AI

Ya wtf is this?! I feel cheated clicking it. Hope my thumb saves my eyes next time.

I know complete rubbish

Unwell = spent 😂

Every time I see him in back to the future I scream!! Watch the chase with Charlie sheen and you get so much flea! And Anthony and Henry Rollins. It’s such a time capsule of a movie!

my fav bassist rippin some brass!

Flea is my favourite human just next to Keanu Reeves

@@chriskeyes713I was just thinking, now I wanna watch Back To The Future 😂

Kind human being? Maybe look up what he was arrested for in Florida.

Dang bro chill

Shit show

The most stupid moment of Nirvana, as for me

Well he should've been prepared. A smart junkie (lol I know right) would've understood he was going to a foreign country for work obligations (which helped fund more drugs) so if he couldn't sneak enough dope to take with him he should've had a doctor write him a script for morphine and another for percocet and used them to maintain while in south America.... its not ideal, but as a former junkie, I gotta say you must plan ahead for this type of thing

@@Lowerclergy Now that I read this you're correct. He easily could've used any number of Drs. Suprised me when I read he'd usually be detoxing in a hotel while on tour outside the country. With that diseased leach consistently keeping him down. ...

@@deadbeats4894 yeah and i just don't understand that because when I was a junkie I always planned ahead. And if I had been in his position there's no way I wouldn't have put a condom full of dope up my ass before getting on a plane to another country. Not only would being dopesick make getting on stage really hard, a really "oh God I can't wait till this is over" type of moment, but just the fact that he'd be putting out a subpar performance and that's a crappy and selfish thing to do when people have spent their hard earned money on tickets. That's why he'd usually be unable to sing live on tours in other countries. See being sober is the ideal way to perform because you're at your best, but if you are addicted to drugs then until you fully detox then that means when sober you're sick, weak, and mentally cloudy and while "high" you actually feel normal... it's a terrible way to live thank god I put the needle down 3 years ago and all other drugs I put down 2 years ago, but I remember very well what it was like hustling, grinding, being rich, and being very poor during the 10 years I was on dope... ain't no way to live

​@@Lowerclergyyep when it gets to a point where you don't even really get high anymore you just have to do it to feel normal it's crazy. I never got into H but every other opiate that didn't require a needle. After a couple years it was near impossible to get the high like the first couple months. I just did it so I could function. That's when it's really bad because now you have no choice but to find some. That was the other thing that became a chore. Finding the amount you need to be normal became a difficult task

​@@Lowerclergyexcept most addicts can't use in moderation. I don't take pills anymore because I'll take all the pills. I have tried to put a few here and a few there and tell myself that I only get a few a day, but after a couple of days they're all gone.

Ron Burgandy🤣🤣🤣

Cow bells too

And Flea is Beavis

You know he suffered from his stomach right? He ended up using heroin to stop the constant pain. He was a troubled man

​@novasoul99 if u stop taking drugs, your stomach will hurt.

@@erickh6587you do realise hundreds of thousands of people end up with opiate dependency because they’re already in pain right? You are aware that opiates are painkillers I presume, and aren’t just making stupid statements for the hell of it, right?

@@erickh6587 I'm sure he was lying and you know better!

It's easy to say you have stomach problems when you're in any opiates they make you sick when you feel great they make you sicker when you don't feel great no one will ever know not even Kurt he'd had to of gotten like years into sobriety to see his body go back to normal sad but true

If only MTV still focused on music... cuz know MUSIC TELE VISION or whatever, I miss the classic stuff, like Axl Rose and Tom Petty singing Free Fallin together that time

​@@jason_night23fuck MTV now, just keep the MTV we've been known

Are you bullshitting me?! 🤔

@@joerose6945not at all. I have a scar from that night one of my earrings got ripped off.

Underated by who

The famous Nirvana coke partys... especially in Brazil...damn! For sure that was great!!!

Not sure if it's true or not but I have heard that Dave grohl has said flea and kurt did meth at that show

Absolutely off his potatoes 🤣❤

He looks sober as f*** to me

is*

@@pizzasandwich8229 that doesn't really answer my comment, because to be announced as unpopular is because they *were* popular

@@pizzasandwich8229happens pretty often when you are at the top. But at the end of the day….nobody has had an impact on rock music on the scale Nirvana did since their band ended with Kurt’s death.

@@pizzasandwich8229first off Rolling Stones is a absolute joke, second off now Rolling Stones suck them off and praise them every article

​@@pizzasandwich8229 the fact that you could call them overrated means they were popular

They were overrated. They were extremely iconic for only making a couple albums and having a stretch of 3-4 years of fame. The music was simple but catchy. It wasn’t possible for them to be underrated. The band members had 10s of millions in net worth by ‘97.

And that was in Argentina

​@@joseaquino8773: Yeah, I know

Isso foi na Argentina, esse que o Flea participou foi no Brasil em 1992

​@@garciagamesepicos4226: As I said in my previous reply to the earlier commenter, I already know that fact

Yeah, but people do forget (or weren't alive at the time) that early on after breaking big, they were notorious for god awful live shows. It was a bit of a crap shoot to go to their show and Kurt could be a complete ass to the crowd if he was in one of his moods. Had the internet and smart phones been a thing at the time, they likely wouldn't have maintained their popularity.

@@possumverde maybe. i feel that kind of behavior was on brand for him.

​@possumverde trolls are popular af today, they trolled the audience and music seen pretty hard-core wrote a song called smells like teen spirit which is a troll.

His vibe was a dope head that wanted fame, but put on a wierd act to make him look like a tool that didn't care..... They are one of the most commercialized bands from the era....lol

😂 Miss his vibe!?

@@drnick647 wtf bro , ikr

@@aphesz_ you don't know right

He still has a chill vibe. Cuz he's dead and now what happens here isn't his problem. Try drugs and you can ahev the same vibe he did.

TWSS.

Trying to read this induced an aneurysm

jjajajajj

not on the entire album

@@brain4154 oh, do you know who else is on it ?

@@williamcook9703 Ava Gardner! to be fair, Flea did play for 9 out of the 10 songs on that album 😅

@@brain4154 actually Justin Meldal-Johnsen is credited on Deloused ( Eva played on "tremulant"). Maybe she was the bass player on the tour ?

@@brain4154 and on the non-US version there is an extra song, Omar is credited as playing bass on that one. Doesn't sound familiar to me, I don't think I had ever heard it before (just a minute ago). *I think Meldal-Johnsen is the guy from Beck, maybe ?

Best song off that album is Big Fleese

Naw, In-fleatero or fleavermind

lmao nice one

Gotta get them views somehow lol

It's AI

I never heard before, so if it's true well thx buddy! Brazil coke just hard and clean asf. lol

Is this in a book or something?

@ffrreeddeerriikk1912 it's in a video about layne staley and aic, they got some dope in the end, kurt paid for dope and layne had a freind pick it up and bring it in.

LOLLLL

Actually, trumpet was his first instrument before he took-up bass, and he can play it beautifully when he wants to. Here, he was intentionally not trying to be virtuosic on the instrument in the punk rock spirit of the given performance, but trust me, he definitely can play it well when he chooses to

He's great with Trumpet. He went to college in 2008 for Trumpet performance, music theory and composition. He's played on multiple records with Trumpet, i.e Frances the Mute from The Mars Volta. Even in this short clip, his embouchure is on point.

I mean as a rule of thumb... Flea can play whatever Flea wants to play, Flea wants to play bass.. Flea can play bass. Fleas wants to play the drums.. Flea can play the drums. Fleas wants to play the hurdi-gurdi.. Flea can play the hurdi-gurdi.

​@@shruggzdastr8-facedclownbased. Flea is a well schooled musician.

They had many horrible shows. It all depended on how strung out Kurt was. There's plenty of audio out there where Kurt's over a half step flat on the vocals and seems to just be randomly strumming the guitar and not even the right chords.

@@possumverde thats not entirely true. Unless he was fkn up on purpuse like in Argentina. But usually, kurt always delivered especially vocally.
