LIVE NIRVANA CONCERT CHRONOLOGY

DID YOU OR ANYONE YOU KNOW EVER TAPE A NIRVANA SHOW?

PLEASE EMAIL US!

The LiveNIRVANA Concert Chronology is a new concert resource which fuses and expands the materials presented in both the former Nirvana Live Guide and the former LiveNIRVANA Tour History.

It documents each NIRVANA concert in as much detail as possible and aims to be the definitive resource for all NIRVANA collectors and enthusiasts.

The LiveNIRVANA Concert Chronology includes for the first time full descriptions of clips of concerts (as aired on TV shows etc), as well as full details, where known, of band and crew members, support bands, showtimes and promoters.

LiveNIRVANA.com aims to keep this document at the cutting edge of the NIRVANA world, so if you have or know of any information that could be incorporated into this document, please do not hesitate to submit it to the authors. Additions, corrections, and comments are always welcome!

Special thanks to all those who assisted in bringing recordings, photos, infos and memorabilia to our attention. For us to be able to see and listen to the live performances is one of the band's most important and lasting legacies.


The former Nirvana Live Guide was created by Kris Sproul and Shane Virone in 1999 as an updated version of the Nirvana Live Performance and Recordings Guide (created by Rob Holmes). Photographs, memorabilia, and other performers from the Interactive Nirvana Concert Chronology (at the time, maintained by Mike Ziegler) were added to the Nirvana Live Guide in 2003.

The former LiveNIRVANA Tour History was originally researched, authored and maintained by Adam Andrews. It was the first to label each recording as a separate source. Andreas Magnusson and Nick Serra produced updates.

Both of the above expanded upon earlier reference works such as Kurt Vogel’s Nirvana Concert Chronology, Jeff McRae’s Interactive Nirvana Concert Chronology, and in particular Jonas Blank’s The Collector’s Guide to Live Nirvana.

We acknowledge and are in awe of the extreme amount of work that went into creating the resources that we have consulted to bring you this document, and would like to thank them all for their dedication.
