Sliver - Live At Del Mar B-Side

This is a semi-autobiographical song about being deserted by your parents. The words were written by Kurt Cobain and tell the story about a little boy left at his grandparents house and him screaming to go home.

Dan Peters from the group Mudhoney played drums on this track. Like Nirvana, Mudhoney came out of the Seattle music scene, and for a while were doing much better. Nirvana went through four drummers before finding Dave Grohl; Peters played just one show with the band.

This inspired the Weezer track "Heart Songs." Weezer leeder Rivers Cuomo told Rolling Stone magazine about hearing this song for the first time: "I was working at Tower Records on Sunset Boulevard in the spring of '91, and another cashier, Harold, said, 'Hey, Rivers, I know something you might like. It's called Nirvana.' As soon as I heard 'Mom and Dad went to a show,' I immediately started dancing around. It was exactly how I felt, and they were putting it to music. It inspired me to do the same thing."
