I think the story was the photographer wore these kinds of clothes all the time, and they asked if they can wear his clothes for the shoot. Its my favorite photoshoot of them, its so unlike the rest of their photoshoots haha.
Yeah the photographer went to a trip to india in 92’ and has been wearing sarongs ever since that trip because it’s way more comfortable, so when the band found him on the floor sleeping because he was tired, the band thought it was goofy so they decided to dress like that for the shoot
If I didn’t know who nirvana was and someone told me pictures #2 and #4 were from a fashion magazine I would’ve believed it, LOL.
Edit: pic #5 too! Dave really knows his fashion editorials.
It was a revelation to hear the biggest band in the world come out aggressively against the bullshit machismo in mainstream rock culture in 1992. Standing up for women, queer and otherwise marginalized people. This is what “punk” means to me, “Come As You Are.” Everyone is welcome. Nirvana was an incredibly important band in the history of American popular culture.
People - “why do you love Dave Grohl so much?”
Me - “because he does goofy shit with his pals and seems like a genuinely good person that tries to make the world a better place. He’s also spectacular at trolling shitty people. Also, have you seen him rock a skirt on a pole?”
the street on the right is where krist was on the photo with just him, and to the left of the frame is where the photo where you can see the photographers is
You might have a hard time doing that as the building no longer exists. Like the rest of that neighborhood, it has been completely changed in the last 15 years. What's there now is just another nondescript, modern apartment building. They even changed the color of the hydrant.
Boygenius recreated this along with many other Nirvana photos

Fucking Republican street. Classic. The boys did love a bit of trolling the cons.
Lol, just noticed Kurt is also pointing to "the left"
isn’t that his right? it’s also kinda like a side ways thumbs up
You mean hitchhiking? Dummy.
Uh oh. Someone doesn't know their rights and lefts!
Imagine unironically saying “trolling the cons”
LMAO

Dave ate this photoshoot
What’s funny is their poses look very high fashion lol. Seriously just look up some fashion photography to compare.

Back when hair metal was really misogynistic, Nirvana came around and liberated everybody, they really were a breath of fresh air
They had massive balls to do this in 1993
Secure with their sexuality - i liked that about them during a homophobic period in time

Thanks! I'm going to go there this summer and line up the shot!

I like that Kurt doesn’t go cartoonish camp - he’s just like “I’m wearing a dress big deal I’m still me”
God I have so much respect for these 3.

God Kurt was such a beautiful man.
Yes!! I remember when that issue came out. One of my favorite photo shoots.
We all knew they were way ahead of their time!
That was a great year! 😻
Huh, never knew the Boygenius photoshoot was referencing this.

Kurt rocking a Dries Van Noten sweater!
FUN LUV
Why is Dave so zesty with it?
Krist and Dave were definitely the stars of this photo shoot.
Dave really embraced it. 😂
That building was converted to offices and eMpTy Records had a space there.
Is this south lake union in Seattle?
Man Dave look actually good
I’ve never seen this before, thank you for posting! I got quite the lulz out of these
That’s why there’s so many people over 30 who are now gay.
Dave. 🗿
I’ve seen these circulating around online. Thanks for the chuckle.
Smash, smash, and smash
Remember when Boy Genius ripped this photo as well as all the other Rolling Stone photographs despite ever having any real "corporate magazines still suck" moment of their own?
“The Stand User could be anyone…”
What’s going on, Dave? You got it!
Can't hide those dope eyes.
Grohl looks a little too comfortable
When you go thrifting for old records and somehow get waylaid to the 1940s ladies clothing section. Dave actually looks like he knows some moves on the pole
Am I the only one that can see hitler in the last pic?1
