The Vaselines are a legendary Glasgow Scotland alternative rock band, that formed in 1986. They were here in duo form, to perform a Venus Fest set on The Opera House stage.

The Vaselines are perhaps most famous for having their song "Molly’s Lips" covered by Nirvana. Kurt Cobain was well known for trying to bring excellent music to a larger audience, and this cover is but one example. The Vaselines' version is embedded below.

I loved seeing the performance and hearing the songs, as well as the banter between the two. Take a listen to The Vaselines' music below.

Check out all my coverage of this year's Venus Fest from this one master post here.

"Son of a Gun"

"Jesus Wants Me For A Sunbeam"

"Molly's Lips"
