Its the "make something up" bit that confuses me. Are the playing Nirvana songs or what?

Macca singing "I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black" like?

"come on people now, smile on your brother........."

[Justiceforcedave]

Surely they're more likely to play Beatles songs? yunno, cause otherwise all the Kurt fans will hunt Macca down with pitch forks an cry themselves to sleep.

[The Nal]

On his new album he's managed to 'cleanse' any emotion from the cover versions, this will be the chance to turn all Nirvana songs into happy MOR singalongs for those that couldn't palate the edginess.

[JamesT977]

Relapse was awful, he admitted that himself, whereas I thought Recovery was spot on. He was amazing at V.

Curtain Call can't really be called his last decent album, it's a greatest hits collection.

[LondonTom]

McCartney said: "I didn't really know who they were. They are saying how good it is to be back together. I said: 'Whoa? You guys haven't played together for all that time?'

"And somebody whispered to me: 'That's Nirvana. You're Kurt.' I couldn't believe it."

[The Nal]

It's like his a fan boy whose wearing a blindfold or something

It's either going be brilliant or amazingly shit.

I really really want to see Macca sing 'Rape Me' with his trademark cheery grin and two thumbs aloft. Can't wait.

as a barrage of fireworks light up the night sky

[Andy0808 v3.0]

They might of meant Encore it's near enough the same album cover and was released like a year after encore i think

[FloorFiller]

as hilarious as it'd be, i don't think he's 'replacing Kurt' as such. they've written a new song together or something and will be performing that. unfortunately i don't think we'll be getting Macca screaming along to Endless Nameless

[Guitargeek]

I think it'll be truly dreadful.

[Andy0808 v3.0]

I didn’t really know who they were. They are saying how good it is to be back together. I said 'Whoa? You guys haven’t played together for all that time?' And somebody whispered to me ‘'That’s Nirvana. You’re Kurt.' I couldn’t believe it.

I predict the same thing that happend at Live 8,The Queens jubilee, The Olympics and every other charity event ever involving Macca...

A: Roll out Macca

B: Naaaaaa naaaaaa naa na na na naaaaa etc etc etc

C: Judey judey jude jude judey

D: Exit Macca

The end.

was alright, much better than I expected and so glad he just didn't do vocals of a Nirvana classic...

... also surprise of the night has to go to him not playing Hey Jude

[redmosquito]

I thought it was pretty decent but Roger Waters and Eddie Vedder sent actual shivers up my spine. Amazing stuff from them two.

[jimmyt]

Am I right in thinking that the concert is being shown tonight on Sky Arts at 10pm? I thought it was going to be on telly live but couldn't locate it last night. I think the Macca and Nirvana song is really good, actually. Not what I was expecting but I'd genuinely be at least intrigued by any more stuff they happened to come up with.

Grohl should always stick to drums.
