Before this show, Kurt overdosed on heroin but was quickly revived and continued on with the show.
“It’s a part of my life that I’m not too proud of. It’s been going on for years. Then I slowly decided not to self-destruct. I wasn’t familiar with what heroin does to people. I did it first in ‘85/’86 in Aberdeen. I’d wanted to try it for ever. I wanted to be a junkie for a few months after ‘Nevermind’ and the tour. It was a really stupid idea. I didn’t understand how evil it is, how hard it is to get off it. It’s the most addictive thing I’ve ever tried. It’s an ongoing dilemma. I still have problems with it. This year I’ve fucked up a few times. But I’m not addicted any more. I haven’t had any drug dealings for a long time. I couldn’t fool myself or anyone else that I won’t do it again; I’ll always be a junkie. I’ve had to excommunicate my drug-taking friends and focus on my family and my music.” - Kurt Cobain.
