1994 festival and stadium shows
In mid-1994, Nirvana were scheduled to headline the Lollapalooza festival which was then a touring festival across the United States and Canada. However, the band pulled out from the tour because singer and lead guitarist, Kurt Cobain, felt that they would be selling out.[81] On April 6, 1994, which was two day's before Cobain was found dead, having committed suicide, Nirvana announced that they were pulling out of the tour because they were concerned for Cobain's health.[82]

- The show was cancelled about five weeks earlier due to its relatively low capacity.

Instead, the show was moved to the Paradiso, which held over twice as many people.
