RonJonSurfer Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 Nirvana Fans Furious About Chili Peppers Video Some Nirvana fans believe the band dispected Kurt Cobain in the "Dani California" video. Nirvana fans are furious because they believe the new Red Hot Chili Peppers music video featuring a parody of late Nirvana lead singer Kurt Cobain is disrespectful. In the video for "Dani California," the group dresses up like members of famous bands including The Beatles and The Sex Pistols. In one segment Chili Peppers frontman Anthony Kiedis appears as a sullen Kurt Cobain, with a candle extinguishing before him. The video's director, Tony Kaye, claims the band wanted to make sure no one was offended by the clip and even got permission from Nirvana's ex-drummer, Dave Grohl. He explains, "It was a big concern of (Chili Peppers bassist) Flea's. "Flea asked Dave Grohl if it was okay. Dave said yeah, Nirvana was about having fun."

c_s_1987 Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 They are certainly not the only band with one or more deceased members either. Both Elvis and The Beatles appear too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
