'Kerrang!' magazine even gave this show 1st place in its list of The 100 Greatest Gigs of All Time.
They arrive at Heathrow Airport in London at 7.30am and meet up with Sonic Youth and travel to Wales on two coaches to catch the ferry to Ireland.  Nirvana start a two week European tour with Sonic Youth at Sir Henry's Pub in Cork, Ireland. The two bands stay at the inn attached to the club.
The band is full of life and spunk for the Cork show and plays with the audience. It's highlight would be a rare (and first) 1991 performance of Lounge Act  and the falsetto version of Negative Creep (Kurt begins the song with funny vocals).
