Nirvana play secret gig to 200 fans with St Vincent, Dinosaur Jr
Band play hit-packed set with special guests in NYC
Interpol: In an interview with a Belgian magazine, frontman Paul Banks once said of Kurt Cobain: "What can I say? He was my idol. Even though I never tried to imitate him, let that be clear. He was a rock star against his will, you could read that in every interview. But everything he did screamed: look at me! He was looking for attention his way, much more than I do. Nevertheless, try to achieve what he did in such a short time, try to survive it."

Following their induction into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame, the surviving members of Nirvana played a special intimate gig to just 200 fans in New York last night (Thursday 10 April, 2014). See footage and the ridiculous setlist below.
The band made history when Dave Grohl, Pat Smear and Krist Novoselic performed Nirvana classics with Lorde, Joan Jett, Annie Clark of St Vincent and Kim Gordon at the induction ceremony at Brooklyn's Barclay's Centre.
They then played a secret an intimate gig to what can only be described as 200 of the luckiest people on the planet at the tiny Saint Vitus venue.
Jett, Clark and Gordon rejoined the band for a 19-song set of Nirvana classics, as well as Dinosaur Jr's J Mascis and Deer Tick's John Mccauley taking to the stage to perform. We know, right? Life just isn't fair.
