Nirvana Unplugged Anniversary
. From that moment, MTV producers were dead set on getting Nirvana to do an Unplugged show for the network. Kurt Cobain and Co. resisted initially, mostly because they weren't too thrilled with the series. Drummer Dave Grohl remembers: "We'd seen the other Unpluggeds and didn't like many of them, because most bands would treat them like rock shows � play their hits like it was Madison Square Garden except with acoustic guitars." In the meantime, both Nirvana and Unplugged continued to gain fame. Nirvana continued to release hits off Nevermind and toured the world. Unplugged drew bigger and bigger stars � such as Mariah Carey, Eric Clapton (who won Grammys for his Unplugged performance) and Nirvana's grunge pals Pearl Jam. Finally, in the fall of 1993, following the release of In Utero and while on tour with the Meat Puppets, the band agreed to play Unplugged. - more on this story Gibson.com is an official news provider for the Day in Rock.
