ON THIS DATE IN 1991, NIRVANA ROCKED A SHOW AT THE ROXY THEATER IN L.A… YET ANOTHER ROXY? YIKES! LOL – BUT THE THEATER WASN’T THE BIG DEAL… THAT SHOW WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR A COUPLE OF AMAZING ROCK MOMENTS THAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED LATER…

AT THE CONCERT, THE NOW ICONIC GRUNGE BAND INVITED THE AUDIENCE TO BE A PART OF THEIR FIRST VIDEO SHOOT…”SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT” WHICH TAKES PLACE TWO DAYS LATER AND MANY WERE TURNED AWAY AND THAT VIDEO IS ICONICALLY THE 90’S IN A NUTSHELL…BUT THE OTHER PART OF THIS STORY IS THAT IN THE CROWD AT THAT SHOW WAS A MUSICIAN FROM ENGLAND WHO WAS SPENDING TIME IN L.A TO WORK ON MUSIC VIDEOS AND MAKE CONNECTIONS…UPON RETURNING HOME TO JOLLY OL’ ENGLAND ALL INSPIRED BY THE NIRVANA CONCERT, THE MUSICIAN NAMED GAVIN ROSSDALE FORMS THE BAND BUSH…THEY BROKE THROUGH THE U.S MAINSTREAM IN 1995 WITH THEIR DEBUT ALBUM SIXTEEN STONE AND YOU DEFINITELY FELT THE NIRVANA INSPIRATION…SIXTEEN STONE WENT ON TO SELL 6 MILLION COPIES AND SPAWNED SEVERAL ROCK HITS INCLUDING “COME DOWN” TODAY’S ROXY’S ROCK REWIND ON 105.7 THE X
