1) Polly has no drums. Will it just not be accessible in SWT and BWT on drums?
2) On A Plain fades out at the end. What are they doing about that?
3) Will Endless, Nameless be included. I know it might sound like a mindless jam but the drums and guitars are good and it definately has a structure. It would be fun to scream like Kurt too.
4) Will Drain You let you tap on the mic for the squeaky toy noises?

Well, that's one way of getting the 100% Expert Drummer achievement...

I'd imagine it would have a freeform jam session at the end of it. That seems to make sense and is appropriate for On a Plain.

They will probably deal with fade outs the same as in all the other songs, I believe it has been said that the actual master track itself doesn't fade out, I'm not positive though. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Polly has no drums, I don't think you'll be able to play it with drums then. I don't see why it still wouldn't work in BWT, the drummer would just have to sit that one out, just like in an actual Nirvana concert.

I doubt Endless Nameless will be included. As it is only in some versions of Nevermind.

I don't think we'll know about Drain You until it comes out.

Ya, I don't mind there being no drums. That actually kind of gives me hope for instrumentals which is awesome. I was just wondering because this is the first song I've heard announced that didn't have one of the instruments in it and I was wondering how they were going to handle it.

Actually, not to be a jerk or anything...and not that I put a lot of research into this but...in Polly...there's something that sounds sort of like a cymbal crash at about 23 seconds in, just before Kurt sings the chorus. Actually, I'm listening to it while I'm typing this and there's another crash just before the 2nd chorus....and the third...lol. So, I'm guessing if you can hit the cymbal 3 times, you'd be set as the drummer. Oh, and there's another right at the end of it.

As per "Polly" watch the Nirvana unplugged special. Watch what Dave Grohl is doing, and that will answer that question i think.

He doesn't do much besides sing backup. There really isn't any drums in Polly besides a bit of cymbal. It's really a solo acoustic song basically.

Although if you listen to concert versions of Polly, there are a good amount of drums. Since this is the Polly off of Nevermind however, I doubt they will add in drums to it.
