Presented is an original poster advertising the appearance of the band Nirvana on July 23, 1993, at Roseland in New York City, as part of the New Music Seminar. Originally founded in 1917 in Philadelphia, Roseland transferred to New York City in 1919. In 1956, the original New York City Roseland moved from its 51st Street location to 52nd Street. Over the years, Roseland had big bands that played for dancing, such as the Tommy Dorsey and Glenn Miller Orchestras. In more recent times, Roseland was a multi-purpose venue that could accommodate 3,200 standing patrons, plus another 300 in the balcony. This 1993 appearance let fans experience Nirvana as they performed songs from their upcoming third studio album In Utero, a release that would top the album charts in both the U.S. and the United Kingdom. "Heart-Shaped Box" and "All Apologies" are two singles from that album that would reach Number 1 on Billboard's Alternative Music chart. In the New York Times, music critic Jon Pareles wrote: "The band ... reminds both old fans and skeptics of why it blasted out of the club circuit to begin with.... The music weaves and undulates, conveying not the muscular certainty of most hard rock, but a struggle to break free of despair." The poster includes band members: Kurt Cobain, Krist Novoselic, and Dave Grohl. After the suicide of Cobain in 1994, Nirvana disbanded. Nirvana is now in the Rock Hall of Fame. Roseland closed on April 7, 2014, after a final concert by Lady Gaga. The poster is a wonderful representation of the basic, no frills poster style of New York City at the time. Measuring 14x22", the poster exhibits some tiny, white speckled spots where the color did not print, but it is in otherwise very good condition. One of the key values of the poster is that it recalls Nirvana when the group was at the apex of its glory.
