Nirvana was an American rock band formed in Aberdeen, Washington, in 1987. It was founded by lead singer and guitarist Kurt Cobain and bassist Krist Novoselic. Nirvana went through a succession of drummers, the longest-lasting and best-known being Dave Grohl, who joined in 1990. Though the band dissolved in 1994 after the death of Cobain, their music maintains a popular following and continues to influence modern rock and roll culture.
Get an intimate look at the history of Seattle luminaries, Nirvana, with more than 200 rare artifacts, photographs, and oral histories.
The exhibition features instruments like Kurt Cobain’s Fender Stratocaster, Krist Novoselić’s Hiwatt DR103 bass amplifier head, and Dave Grohl’s Tama Rockstar-Pro drum kit. In addition, a diverse set of objects like the Cobain-created Fecal Matter shirt and the casting call flier for the “Smells Like Teen Spirit” music video will be on display.
The Museum of Pop Culture, or MoPOP (previously called EMP Museum) is a nonprofit museum dedicated to contemporary popular culture. It was founded by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen in 2000 as the Experience Music Project. Since that time MoPOP has organized dozens of exhibits, 17 of which have toured across the US and internationally. The largest collections in the world of artifacts, hand-written lyrics, personal instruments, and original photographs celebrating the music and history of Seattle musicians Nirvana and Jimi Hendrix.
Hey everyone , I promise to write back to all who comment as I always do . Might take a while as I’m working all weekend but I definitely will! Thank you all for watching!
Seeing Kurts smashed up guitar was my favorite. That’s a classic. He actually ruined those and it’s neat. I want to touch that guitar 🎸
So do I! And bang away on Dave’s old drums!
Dave, who, love? When I get depressed I hold Joe Strummer's California driver's license. Love you:)
Pretty cool. They always made Kurt out to be so depressed and mad but he was actually a really funny and nice guy.
Your exactly right by the way noone can be depressed in your awesome 80's room just sayin its my entire childhood on steroids wrapped up into one room with a bow absolutely love it
I wanna visit this museum so bad!! It looks so cool! Just gonna have to make the trip west and go☺️
Hi my dream is to go to seatle but is a long travel ..well but alright ..hey see my nirvana covers ..subscribe too. .thanks. .
@@max23945 Seattle sucks now, stay home.
I loved Nirvana since they first came out...before they became super big. My brother was living in southern California at the time, and the underground punk scene was big.. like social distortion and mudhoney were his favorites.
He said that they are going to be big one day, just wait.
Favorite band of all time.
Thank you for making this video. My heart aches just seeing his legacy there in the museum and knowing what more could have been.
I'm geeking out, as well. RIP Kurt. Much love to you.
Man Scott thank you brother for the tour my dude 😎🤘 you know I'm a die hard Nirvana fan, I really enjoyed watching this appreciate ya bro! And happy Thanksgiving hope you had a awesome one my friend 🦃🍗👍 I'd love to visit this place one day I'd love to see Kurt's belongings in person, it's on my bucket list! Lol, but hey if I never make it at least I got to see all the cool stuff on this video thanks to you 👊
You’re welcome Derrick! I’m so very glad you got to see and that you liked the video! Happy Thanksgiving to you as well!
@@SCOTTONTAPE thanks brother 😎👍
my first concert was Hendrix. he played with his teeth and fire. never forget it. to me Nirvana was the 90's. his suicide was a shock but his Rome trip was telling. Thank you Scott for taking us on your seattle trip and to the many places we can only get to see through you.
Thanks for videoing this, man. Much love
So I'm very late to your channel, but as a huge nirvana fan I'm freaking out watching this!! Even though he is gone I give kurt credit for me kicking my heroin addiction!! I've listened to them my whole life and getting back into listening to them it literally saved my life. Thank you for this video. You do great work!!!
Wow that was delightful, thank you for sharing Scott. I grow with Nirvana one of my many favourite bands. ♥️
Fantastic video Scott. I'm a huge Nirvana fan. Thank you so much. Much love from Calgary Alberta
I love your videos.
The Matt Shepard, River Phoenix, all the Eminem videos and PROOF tribute video are a few of
My favourites. Proof passed away on my birthday.
The Detroit grave sites was beautiful and touching as well. Thank you Scott.
Scott , I've been watching your videos for awhile now. I love them. Keep doing them, they are great and so are you. Love binge watching your channel. Great work. Maggie. Xo
If your ever in the Northeast doing any of your work , you've got a friend up here in me.
Thank you so much Maggie I’m flattered!! I really appreciate that ✌🏽✌🏿

We're neighbors! I'm in Vermont. If your ever passing through, stop by for a home cooked meal. Just love your work. So lucky I found your channel....keep em coming. 😊🍁
Vermont is one of my favorite states. What a beautiful place to live. I’ll definitely take you up on that next time I’m there

I've been following your adventures for a year. Keep up the good work.
That was Awesome!!! Thank you so much! I Love Seattle too, I've I was there visiting my cousin when Kurt died😞 This world seems just a little smaller without Chris Cornell in it💙 Love the statue.. 💚
Hey i invite you to see my nirvana covers ..subscribe if you like thanks. .nirvanaaa
Thank you for watching Carol! We’ve lost so many of our grunge idols
@@SCOTTONTAPE oh I know!! Chris Cornell Was The voice of Our generation & He will be missed by many.. I loved Payne Staleys voice as well..
Once again...thanks for the tour Ive always wanted, Scott!
Man..I saw Kurt's old blue dodge on display on some video on here. What I wouldn't give to drive that around!
In April I have some big surprises coming presuming I get back to Olympia and Seattle as planned . Keep watching !
Very cool exhibit. I didn't visit it during my last trip but I did get to see the infamous bench by his last home which was definitely the highlight of my trip.
Isn’t that a beautiful park? It’s so peaceful and serene , even tho it’s connected to such a sad memory
So cool thank you for posting this
You’re welcome Ben!
So glad to see this, I visited here back in like 2000, they had the guitar that Jimi set on fire there as well as his diary that you could page through, such a good experience, I need to visit it again. Thank you for your videos, I quite enjoy them good sir!! :- )}}
Yeah what was left of it haha. I haven't been there since probably 2003 or so, but that was the highlight for me as well at the time.
Awesome exhibit. Another fantastic narrative. Glad to see the exhibit went into the early years with subpop.
Great video my friend!! This looks like a cool museum!! Great pictures!! The guitars are so cool!! Love you and your videos my friend!! You are great Scott!! Love your channel!! You are the man my friend!! Much love!! Peace!! ❤️💙💕💖💜🙏🙏❤️❤️✌️✌️✌️✌️
Kids? Called us kids? Most of us are grown folks with enough hair on our nuts and ass to make a squirrel jealous.
Hands down 🙌, tumbs up 👍 Scott .... That museum superockawsome 🤘🤘...wish i could go there
I didn’t think much when I saw the title of this video Scotty but Wow when I watched it I loved it. It was so cool to see all the guitars and paraphernalia of all the legends who still rule in these times. You know your stuff for sure and your explanation helped to understand a lot more. When I saw the TWA Airline bag it reminded me of the Airline bags of Pan Am, Swissair and a few others that my Uncle, ( who had a top job in Air India) used to bring home for us. It used to be a prized possession for us because flying anywhere was out of the question for us in those times. Thanks Scotty. More Star Wars stuff would have been great but I am sure it will happen whenever possible for you. Take care. Lots of love from all of us. ❤️✌🏼🤗💕😏
I can’t believe I missed the Star Wars exhibit !! I was so pressed for time that day and as such a big fan of the series I’m STILL pissed at myself arghhhhhh. Looks like I’ll have to go back at some point! Sorry we didn’t get to talk too much on the live chat but it goes so fast all the comments it’s getting harder keeping up! But knowing your watching or tuning in for a bit means a lot to me as I love the support you and your family have shown me. Give my love to Sean, Jesse, and everyone and if you ever find one of those retro twa bags, don’t put it on eBay ! Treasure it!
Felt like i was there along for the ride, thats whats do cool about ur videos. Happy friday from costa rica !!!✌
Hi i come from brazil. .i make nirvana covers see them and subscribe if you like. .nirvanaaaa
Great video Scott! I’ve got to go there one day!!! So cool to see all of that stuff especially their personal photos, (Nirvana) some I’ve never seen before
You will love it Ari!
What a great video, Scott!! Whew, I was feeling all kinds of emotion and practically in tears so I can imagine how you felt being there knowing how much you love Nirvana and dear Kurdt!! Seeing Jimi's jacket shirt was cool, Bonham's drums. (wished I got a little better glance at Stevie Ray Vaughan's guitar as I am a huge fan). Then I remembered where you hope to travel to next and you can't hardly miss SRV there especially in Austin. The only thing I wasn't crazy about was the statue of Chris Cornell and how it looks and that has nothing to do w/your video so I'm just throwing it in there. All those old pictures, notes, luggage, etc. I would definitely love to go there some day.
Ya I kinda rushed through some of the exhibits and I’m angry about it just. I missed the Star Wars /sci-fi exhibit and Star Wars is everything to me !! That’s right tho I’m hoping to make it to Texas so SRV should be included...doncha think? And the statue really doesn’t look too much like Chris no, but it’s quite striking in person . Talk to you soon my sweet Verna!
So awesome!!!! This is now on my list to see
17:05 Kurt played this guitar at their infamous "Live & Loud" concert, as well as their Munich 1994 show...their last show ever.
I wish I could "like" this video 1, 000, 000 times.
Loved this so much! I've been to Seattle so many times and I've never been inside Mopop except the gift shop area. I swear next time I'm up that way (hopefully next spring/or early summer) I am planning a day just for Mopop, several hours!!! This was awesome, so much to see and soak in.
This reminds me of Cleveland’s rock and roll hall of fame! Definitely visit it if you never been there before. Cleveland has other places you could visit in one trip!
Thanks love anything Nirvana and Kurt Cobain 🙏🙏💗💗
Good so please watch my nirvana covers and subscribe if you like thanks
Great vid! Really awesome!
One million thank yous for that Scott .all the greats 🇮🇪😎💋😍
Thanks for the video Scott. Thumbs up from Tassie, Australia
You’re welcome Leigh !
yes brother! that was a great upload scott!! i was hoping u were gonna show the Chris Cornell statue! and u did! thank u for that great lil tour!!! excellent!
Thanks Steve glad you liked it brother !
Nice museum! So much iconic things to see!
It was awesome I can’t wait to go back !
Love Kurt Cobain!! Thank you for this Amazing Video!!
So many of the fantastic singers take their own life and it's such a sad waste of talent but it makes you realise that fame isn't everything and obviously it hides a lot of unhappiness, R.I.P Kirk, Chris , Chester and many more that felt they couldn't go on , this world is a sadder place without you all , much respect for you all I hope you found the peace you were needing 🙏
Beautifully put thank you
Love that place. Was there when it first opened in 2001 . Back then it was called the EMP seattle ( experience music project) a Hendrix inspired electric sky church theme park . They used to have jam room, where you can play real instruments , learn how to produce music, a live stage , and the museum part . Lots of nirvana stuff back then too
you know I gotta dig this video, love all the music related ones!
Seattle Washington I'm from kennewick wa... love all these pnw bands... thanx Scott.
. Love u❤🦋💜🙏🌞
Hendrix was one of the best mofer of all time he played the left handed guitar like no one's business he knew how to dig into the tunes his singing was decent but his legacy was the best of all time on the left hand guitar
Absolutely the greatest
I just got back from Seattle, went to the exhibit, I like it, but personally I think Nirvana should get more love at the museum, how the hell does Pearl Jam has a whole wing of the museum and Nirvana only has a small section !
So nostalgic...peace and love Kurt Cobain.
This was very enjoyable!! Thank you for sharing!!
Wow I remember going to that place but at the time they didn't have Nirvana stuff there yet it's so amazing I wish I could have seen them in concert
nice video mate, love from india... NIRVANA IS THE BEST
Thank you so much ! Greetings to India!
I’ve been trying to get to Seattle since 1992, I will finally get their at the end of the month !
I have to get to this museum, to see this Exhibit !
Looks like my next road trip
It’s awesome !
Xheers Scott N' thankx 4 sharing. Likd 198
And thank you for watching !! Keep warm up there in northern Ontario!
@@SCOTTONTAPE Thankx, N' you take care up in TDot/Adventures!
Thanks for filming this as I can’t make it there any time soon.
One thing! I’m glad they preserved his lyric sheets but I find it strange that everything he owned or touched ended up in a Museum! I wonder how he’d feel about that. I doubt he would like being idolized like that.
Also, while it’s great things were preserved for fans, only dead things go into museums. So I find that strange.
One minute he was living and strumming an acoustic guitar and wearing a green sweater he bought at goodwill for $10.
Then 25 years after his death that sweater sells at Auction for 200k and the guitar sells for 6 million. Crazy! I bet he’s laughing about this somewhere!
Great video! I can’t imagine how amazing that must be to see that in person.
13:40 I remember being so excited to find that Kill Rock Stars cd in an F.Y.E. of all places at Great Lakes Crossing outside of Detroit. It's a huge fancy mall they built next to my house when I was in high school. I don't understand how they had such a rare album.
Very cool Explore Vlog!!
Criss Cornell is a statue now? One day your alive and the next day, you’re a statue. Frozen in place forever. How sad. I liked it better when he was living.
Is that the best tribute we can do for someone? Make a statue of their likeness? I wish there was a better way. 😎👏🏻🎸
I enjoyed the video and seeing the Space Needle although I don’t know if I’d have the guts to go up it. It looks very tall! Thanks!
That awesome museum and i loved nirvana and they are amazing and i loved some music and and thank you for sharing
Right next door is the Science Fiction Museum.
Yes unfortunately MoPop was closing so I only had time to run into that exhibit quickly but I’ll be back to film it proper very soon . Thanks for watching Ryan
Love this, going to it when I can
Much love from Peoria IL love Kurt curbain he's so talented sad he's gone always lose the icons ☺😞💝🙏
Much love back to Peoria!
@@SCOTTONTAPE love also from Calumet city Illinois
Sensacional NIRVANA
Nice vlog! but i wish you'd have shown more of the Pearl Jam and specially Mother Love Bone's exhibit
12:55 That Sheep Creek Rest Area picture. I googled it and it's in Idaho. Looks like a beautiful place. and they place they stood still looks EXACTLY the same. Crazy.
Hopefully you don't believe Kurt took his own life.
Scott does, I think. I go back and forth myself. 🤔
He did
I go back and forth myself on that subject as many ppl do.
@Kirsten Phillips he was definitely murdered
That’s so cool
It was awesome !
Cool video
Thanks Dee!
@@SCOTTONTAPE you're welcome.
Awesome scott!!!
Kurt was one of the worst/best guitar players I've heard. It really does go to show you that, you don't need to be some sort of guitar virtuouso who understands music theory, chords, how to read music, nor Sound like Eddie van Halen, in order to sound great/make good music. If your heart is beating and you have two functioning hands, all you need is the will to be the best at what you do. Applies to everything in life. Motivation and hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard every single day. Great upload thanks for taking us along. Peace
Worst guitarist? Hell, nah! Best if not greatest lyricist, vocalist, guitarist. 🎸🎸🎸🎸
I used to live in Seattle si I've been to the museum before. It's a cool city to visit but some of my darkest years living there. I was suppost to go back to visit friends in a few weeks but cancelled due to the Corona virus. Hope I can go later this year.
i been at that . i watched a hendrix concert all bymyself in the theatre. great place. there was a dylan record there that belonged to hendrix. great video brother. i really enjoyed this video
mike
friend and fellow canadian eh
Thanks Mike!
I so geeked out on Hendrix
that acoustic guitar at the Hendrix part of the museum is stung up for a right handed person jimi Hendrix was left handed
I never noticed that . Hmmm
Hi Scott...absolutely love your videos man! Did the Aberdeen/Tacoma/Seattle Nirvana "tour" myself this summer. It was on my dreamlist for the past 20 years so it was a dream come true. Hit virtually ever stop you did in the video series you made so it's been great reliving everything through your eyes. Did not get up to Robert Lange studios though despite really wanting to go there...so thanks for that video.
Just a question...how did you get the contact info for the Pear street apartment rental??? Would have totally stayed there if I know that was an option.
Hey Jeff thank you so much ! I’m glad you got to see so many of the same places ! Look up Olympia Washington on air bnb and the apartment should still be listed there . Good luck !
Definitely one of my favorite groups of all time bud. The Doors as well and my number one band is Type O Negative! BTW do you ever sleep? LOL the copyright strikes killed me haha also can we talk soon about me using your Amityville video in my Documentary? Good video buddy!
Type O Negative was my first concert without my parents at the Odeon in Cleveland, OH in 1994 I think it was.
I hear Charles Peterson the Nirvana photographer in the background
Cool seeing so many artists' guitars and stuff. I don't feel Nirvana's music aged very well listening to it now, but cool to see those relics too nonetheless. Great job, Scott!
Aic? Layne is a legend also
Im lovin the Andy wood sculpture. ❤ i've only not long ago got into mother love bone, but love their music and Andy's stage presence.
Ah damn it Scott u were right above me I'm in Oregon lol 🤣 🤣 awesome banging video man 🤘✌️
I’ll be back in Oregon in 2020!!
@@SCOTTONTAPE well I'm in Salem lol
TURTLE TURTLE My brother lives in Salem. Oregon is beautiful!
@@deborahchapman2130 oh really I'm in Oregon lived here all my life except for atleast four to five years I lived in Anchorage Alaska when my father was in army national guard but Oregon is my hometown nice to meet u
Tanks 🤟💀
I was there are twenty-three years ago when they were starting to build that museum of art
Awesome stuff!
PERHAPS my favorite video you've ever done, and not a die hard Nirvana fan. Also kinda liked the voice over, it was better, not worse. If I want to hear a song by Araiana Grande (I don't) I can watch a different vid.
People mingling in a museum. Ahhh the days before Covid...
That quick Alice in Chains interlude was nice for a sec
Ya I wish I had time to film everything in that place but I got there late. I might go back in 2020
"Making Copies" 😂💀 The Scottmeister Scottarino Scottalottadingdong makin copies great video that place is amazing I could spend days weeks months just geeking out in there
Lolol makin copieeees. And yes I can’t wait to go back there ! Air horn!
I remember going there with my dad when i was like 8 and was bored when he stopped to look at the jimi hendrix and nirvana stuff, boy was I a dumb kid!
Love the Nirvana shrine. Will have to go there. Slow down on your panning. My eyes get nauseous. Thx
It was too tough for me to make it through your video when you start off by shiting on the space needle. The most iconic structure we have in town here, and probably the whole NW, that you guys saw, and decided to rip off 15 years after the Needle went up. The museum you have up there must be cute as well with the small hand full of great artists and bands to come from Canada; Neil, Joni, Gordon, Rush, the Guess Who, Arcade Fire, the Band, and...?
Steve Swanson Bieber? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Steve Swanson dude I was obviously kidding and I mentioned how much I love Seattle. I featured the space needle in another video where I poked fun at its size as well. And I mention how gorgeous it is especially at night. Sorry you were offended. Seattle is one of my favorite places I’ve ever been.
And Canada also brought you Nickleback. You’re welcome 😉
Scott if you go back will you go through the Pearl Jam section as well, I would love to see that
I don’t think you should get copyrighted if it’s background noise. Doesn’t seem fair. Not like you dubbed it in without asking the artist. Someone paid for the rights so people could hear that in the museum and you’re just filming there
Ya it had music in every room but only the Jimi room got the copyright strike . So odd. Thank you for watching !
Love Chris Cornell. Does this place have PRINCE? 💜. I’d love to see it
I second that
Kurt really didn't want to play Lollapalooza for some reason
One of the greatest bands of all times! Ty Scott😍😍😍😍 while in seattle do a " ted bundy vlog" lol
Tc
There's so much music mojo in that place I really don't know if I can stand it!
It’s overwhelming!✌🏽✌🏿
Seriously Scotty.. Don't trip on blocking out the background music in ANY of your videos. DO IT!!! Background music is really FN distracting.
It's way better to hear your, well reasearched, personal insights instead of Ari (sorry Ari :().. Keep it up Scotty. Newish fan that loves your personal intrest behind "the stories" Your efforts are invaluable! You always say "I wasn't going to stop here, but..." It's always a big butt, and i can not lie
