"I Found My Friends "recreates the short and tempestuous times of Nirvana throug
h the musicians and producers who played and interacted with the band. The guide
s for this trip didn't just watch the life of this legendary band--they lived it
. Soulsby interviewed over 150 musicians from bands that played and toured with
Nirvana, including well-known alternative and grunge bands like Dinosaur Jr., Th
e Dead Kennedys, and Butthole Surfers, as well as scores of smaller, but no less
fascinating bands.
In this groundbreaking look at a legendary band, readers w
ill see a more personal history of Nirvana than ever before, including Nirvana's
consideration of nearly a dozen previously unmentioned candidates for drummer b
efore settling on David Grohl, a recounting of Nirvana's famously disastrous Sou
th American shows from never-before-heard sources on Brazilian and Argentine sid
es, and the man who hosted the first ever Nirvana gig's recollections of jamming
with the band at that inaugural event.
