Quality: There are alot of horrible quality copies of this floating around. This past year, a better copy surfaced. It's grainy, but a lot clearer. It is also free from the glitches on the previous version. The color is still dull though. The taper shoots from the left hand side of the stage, a few rows back. While the view sometimes has some obstructions, most of it is quite good. We even get extreme closeups of Krist, and Dave.

Notes:A very important video in the history of Nirvana, as this was the show where the band debuted Smells Like Teen Spirit, which is different than what was released. Nothing really notable about the show other than that. Generally well shot footage of the band, though the taper is a few rows back, which signals the start of things to come. Tapers either have to fight the crowds, or be more discreet taping. There are some good shots of Dave and Krist who would often be ignored on the videos in favor of Kurt, once the band became famous. The low generation copies are missing the clip of the Pennyroyal Tea soundcheck.
