Nirvana: Live! Tonight! Sold Out!!
Originally conceived by Kurt Cobain, Live! Tonight! Sold Out!! is a video document of Nirvana’s rise from a scruffy trio from the Pacific Northwest into one of the most iconic and important bands in the history of rock music. Combining live material from their ’91-’92 Nevermind tour, Live! Tonight! Sold Out!! has long been the “holy grail” for Nirvana fans. Digitally remastered live performances of songs like "Smells Like Teen Spirit", "Lithium", "Breed", "Drain You" and "Aneurysm" are mixed into loads of interview footage from across the world.

Good start, but then it gets ruined
A Disappointing Continuation
It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Nirvana, my favorite band put this together during the summers of 1991 and 1992. This video shows different songs from various concerts per- formed by the band. The great songs highlight this video. It is one of my favorite musicals, and is highly recommended for fans of the band.
Where's the follow-up? This film documents, quite well, only the immediate period following the release of their smash hit "Nevermind" album. It is very nicely done, but it leaves fans thirsty for more in the way of a video release, especially in the advent of the DVD. Something from the In Utero tour? An uncut presentation of the landmark "Unplugged" performance (the bootleg doesn't cut it)? Aside from a very brief snippet of "Rape Me" playing in the background in one part, most of this is from the NEVERMIND record with a few cuts from BLEACH and INCESTICIDE sprinkled around. That was the plan though, I suppose, seeing as it's main objective is to cover the insane over-hype that followed the success of "Smells Like Teen Spirit". This is a must for Nirvana fans but more is due. Suppose the powers that be want to let an after-the-storm quiet ensue, though, so that the marketing machine can go full-throttle again when the post-grunge backlash fades away, and Nirvana is once again a profitable iconic entity. yay.
This is just an,as already mentioned, awesome Video,because you really get an pretty good impression of what the band nirvana was like.Unfortunately it's not only the best,but at the same time only (released) Nirvana video.The fact that the video is a product of a "Mainstream" and "commercial" label makes it just a bit more admirable. Congratulations on that one!
This video is amazing. Originally conceived by the late Kurt Cobain, this home video shows footage from various concerts of Nirvana's "Nevermind" tour. The venues range from the small heat-exhausted clubs like the one in Dallas where the song "Love Buzz" is presented to sold out stadiums like the one in Brazil. Aside from concert footage, we see a band backstage fooling around and obviously enjoying themselves. We also see montages of people from the media, people in MTV and people of record companies. These were meshed together very well and it clearly shows how the band was being harassed by the media during the "Nevermind" tour. Anyways, this video is brilliant. Look for outstanding performances of "About A Girl," "Dive," "Breed," "Territorial Pissings," "Drain You," "Sliver" and "Endless Nameless."
