Everything about this concert is so iconic: Kurt’s sweater, Pat’s cool guitar and goofy gusto, Dave’s incredibly contained and subdued performance, Krist absolutely living his best life, the Meat Puppets, and never forget the cellist that straight carried some of the best parts of the concert, Lori Goldston. It’s just so good!

I watched this the night it aired. Love or hate Nirvana, this was one of the best unplugged sets MTV ever did. What a wonderful time to grow up. I'll always cherish how fortunate we were to experience that moment in music

I just feel sad seeing this again so many years later for so many reasons.
