A friend of mine found this and sent it my way. Pretty funny video. Krist is really drunk. Billy and James appear a bit nervous.

Then Courtney Love fucked the shit out of all of them.

I really hope that wasn't supposed to be an encore.

Why are the youtube people calling Cobain "Krist". Did Cobain suddenly become Jesus in the last 10 years?

Wow, surreal. Of couse I figued the thread title was somehow an exaggeration, but it really is every member of Nirvana and every member of Smashing Pumpkins playing twister together (minus Jimmy who was probably busy shooting up).

The only 90s decade worth a damn was the 1890s.

i've seen this image irl and big when i was in paris two weeks ago. it looks nothing like this in the original, must be something with the reproduction. lachapelle is awesome btw.

It's always interesting to see old videos like this and wonder what it would be like if 1991 Billy had met a time traveling 2009 Billy and learned of all that would have happened to The Smashing Pumpkins between then and now. 1991 Billy would have shot himself before Kurt.

What the fuck am I typing right now. I need to go to bed

I miss 90's. Every person in this video seems ten times more interesting and legendary that today's shitty Franz Ferdinand, Arctic Monkeys and Arcade Fire gay members, whose personas are hard to remember, because they all are the same.

I thought this 'Twister' was referring to some gig or something. Fancy that.

the cool thing at the lachapelle exhibition that i saw in paris was, that they had a making of for this pic runing on a tv, and on the left side of the camera there were about 10 different versions of the pieta. drawings, sculptures and stuff like that....

I like how Darcy is running the show. She had awful skinny fingers for a bass player.

isn't everyone suppose to move at the same time in twister? not one at a time, no wonder it was boring

These guys are too cool and alternative to play Twister right.
