Butch Vig - Life Between Nirvana and Garbage

In recognition of Kurt Cobain's February birthday (he would have been 58 on 2/20/25), and 30 years since the release of Garbage's first album with the hits songs Stupid Girl and Only Happy When It Rains, we're bringing back our epic conversation with fellow Packers fan Butch Vig. Catch the VIDEO with Butch recalling a raucous night at the Hollywood Palladium with the Butthole Surfers and L7 where he lost Nirvana, and Kurt Cobain took a long walk home. WATCH HERE: https://youtube.com/shorts/ObnU5pTK9gk This episode includes stories about how Garbage was once forced to play a gig middle of the night in a Serbian castle; why the band's lead singer Shirley Manson nearly didn't pass her audition; and the fact that band members ALWAYS lose 20 IQ points when they go on tour.
