she does tend to do that, more often then not she is the opening band even here in DC, odd she plays second fiddle with her talents and song-writting

I do that every time, just in case.

I've never seen it happen, actually.

I actually felt that way at that moment though. I never would have dreamt what would happen later, or wish it for that matter.

There were other times I saw Nirvana that I wasn't nearly so blown away. One time opening for the Butthole Surfers in Seattle at Union Station, they were actually upstaged by Blood Circus who were overall one of the lamest of the Sub Pop bands of the day.

I went to a shindig organised by Psychick TV many moons ago. It was called 'The Fabulous Feast of the Flowering Light'. 6 or 7 bands played with PTV headlining.
Highlight of the show was a previously unheard of little band from Iceland called KUKL, fronted by a half woman/half pixie named Bjork. By far the best band of the event.
Kudos to PTV for bringing them over to the UK tho.

Yes that's true. She put on an amazing show when I saw her live.
