Nirvana bassist Krist Novoselic revealed his fantasy of having dinner with Kurt Cobain, Dave Grohl, and Pat Smear to catch up in a new Seattle Business Mag interview.
Is there a main driver in your life? I don’t want to waste time. I feel like I’ve wasted a lot of time in my life and I don’t want to waste any more.
What four guests would make for the perfect dinner party? [Former Nirvana members] Dave Grohl and Pat Smear, so we could catch up. I’d invite Kurt Cobain, because it would be good to see him again. And Darbury, my wife.
Any particular song you want played at your funeral? Frank Sinatra, “My Way.”
Dave Grohl discussed his hopes for Nirvana to release their 2014 Saint Vitus reunion gig in a recent Rolling Stone interview.
“When we realised that we were going to do it, I just called the people from my production company and said, ‘We need to film this’, and we loaded some cameras in there and and shot it without knowing what would ever come of it.”
“But it would be a shame for that evening to be only a memory and and we’ve got it. And it was fucking great. It was cathartic and everybody involved, I think, understood that they were part of something like a dream.
“I remember playing and looking and seeing Carrie Brownstein in the front row in the pit singing along to every song and, you know, getting to play drums behind Joan Jett or, god, playing ‘School’ or fucking ‘Pennyroyal Tea’ with J Mascis,” Grohl continues.
“It really was amazing. It was something else. Someday, I’m sure everybody’ll see it.”
