How about Paul on drums, Dave on bass and Krist on vocals? That would really mix it up!Quote

They already have Krist on bass, so is Paul going to play guitar? I assume Grohl will take vocals and drums... Paul on vocals trying to sing Cobain would be painful to watch

Paul McCartney to Perform With 'Dave Grohl and Friends' at 12-12-12
By Rolling Stone | December 12, 12:55 PM ET
Paul McCartney will close out tonight's 12-12-12 Sandy benefit concert by performing with "Dave Grohl and Friends" as well as Diana Krall, according to an official rundown of the show.
Widespread reports suggest that Grohl's "friends" will include Krist Novoselic and former Nirvana touring guitarist Pat Smear, amounting to a reunion of sorts for the band without its late frontman Kurt Cobain. A spokesperson for McCartney would not confirm or deny the rumor, only saying, "Everything will be revealed tonight."

The news of McCartney and Grohl's collaboration comes after Roger Waters revealed on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon that he'll perform "Comfortably Numb" with Eddie Vedder at the star-packed concert, which will also feature the Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, Bruce Springsteen, Bon Jovi, the Who, Billy Joel, Kanye West and more.
12-12-12 will kick off at 7:30 p.m. EST and air on 37 television networks and 27 websites.

I wonder if Paul knows Cobain obsessed over the Beatles in general. He used to play "Julia" constantly on piano during the Nevermind sessions.Quote

I wonder if McCartney knows Cobain listened obsessively to Norwegian Wood when writing All Apologies.

Cobain was a Beatles fan, but more of a Lennon fan. In an interview once he said that "Paul McCartney tends to embarrass me."

I saw the quote in the 2007 book THE ROLLING STONE INTERVIEWS. More of his comment: COBAIN: “John Lennon was definitely my favorite Beatle, hands down. I don’t know who wrote what parts of what Beatles songs, but Paul McCartney embarrasses me. Lennon was obviously disturbed. [laughs] So I could relate to that."
