I vividly remember Nirvana blowing up. They were big but no bigger than Pearl Jam and a few others. GnR was still freaking huge. You could hear Courtney Love's jealousy in the home movies. How many times did she reference GnR? About that same time frame Green Day was blowing up too. There was a lot going on in the early 90's, it wasn't just a Nirvana only scene.
That whole show kind of disturbed me. Watching the home vids of Kurt and Courtney strung out of their minds living in filth was numbing. I felt scared and very badly for that poor child they had. They couldn't take care of themselves much less a baby.

Yeah it was very disturbing. Very interesting but not something I want to rewatch again anytime soon, if ever really. I liked it overall though as an insight into his life and his art, but there was just so much pain and drug abuse.
My only real complaint is that I wish they had covered more of the lead up to his death and the aftermath but I guess they felt like that has been covered so much elsewhere. I had heard it was going to get into some of the conspiracies of if he was murdered but I guess that article I read was wrong or misinformed and I guess because there is an excellent documentary on that already they didn't feel the need to get into it.

They were a lot bigger than Pearl Jam, Jesus dude.
You have to remember that when Nevermind came out hair bands were still dominating MTV and the radio. Nirvana ushered in the popularity of other "grunge" bands, including Pearl Jam.

That differs from my vivid memories. They were bigger than Pearl Jam and after Nevermind they were bigger than GnR. Kurt Cobain might be the largest single influence on 90's pop culture. They also had a beef with Axl over a backstage incident at the VMA's (which was the result of Nirvana declining to open for them on tour).

That wasn't jealousy, that was mocking. They destroyed GnR and that following and knew it. Out with the hair bands and in with Seattle grunge.
