The surviving members of Nirvana were not an announced part of the official FireAid bill on Thursday night, but they took the stage near the end of the Kia Forum show to tear through “Breed” with St. Vincent, “School” with Kim Gordon, “Territorial Pissings” with Joan Jett, and “All Apologies” with Violet Grohl, the 18-year-old daughter of Dave Grohl.
Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic, and Pat Smear broke up Nirvana after Kurt Cobain’s death in 1994, but they came back together in 2012 to record “Cut Me Some Slack” with Paul McCartney. Two years later, when they were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, they performed with St Vincent, Kim Gordon, Joan Jett, and Lorde. Later that night, they played an extended set at at the tiny Brooklyn club St. Vitus. They last took the stage together in 2018 at Cal Jam in San Bernardino, California.
