Nirvana reunited — as much as it could — to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on Thursday night at Brooklyn's Barclay's Center.
The surviving members of the legendary '90s band were joined by Lorde, Joan Jet, Sonic Youth's Kim Gordon and St. Vincent of the Polyphonic Spree, each who did their best Kurt Cobain impressions during the four-song set.
