Foo Fighters have never played a Nirvana toon live to my knowledge, and the surviving members of Nirvana have never performed as Nirvana since Cobain's death.
From NME last year (I know you know what that is Sarah):
Quote:
When asked if he would ever cover a Nirvana track live, (Grohl) said: "Every once in a while we talk about it.
For the Sound City gig here in London we were thinking about musicians that we could invite because Stevie Nicks and John Fogerty couldn't make it. Someone came up with the idea of doing a Nirvana song with PJ Harvey. Kurt loved her and we love her and we thought, 'Yeah, what would we do?' I said: 'God, what if we were to do 'Milk It' from 'In Utero' with Polly singing?' We all looked at each other like, 'Woah, that would be amazing?' and then she couldn't do it!"
He continued: "The thing is, it's sacred ground. If we were ever to do something like that it would have to be right because you want to pay tribute. There's a reason Foo Fighters don't do Nirvana songs, and it's a good reason."
