What's this? An actual interview with Dave Grohl where he does not get one single question about Kurt Cobain? Wonderful!
No JOKE. It’s a miracle.
I just had to google his relationship with Cobain. I knew him from Foo Fighters. 🤣🤣
It's understandable though, Cobain is a straight up almost mythical legend by now.
@@whatabouttheearth it’s gotten to the point where the media has “idolised” his death more than his career and influence as a person
BECAUSE HE MURDERED HIM !!! - NORM MCDONALD.
I love how every Dave Grohl interview feels like just a conversation between friends.
Dave is really down to earth and joyful, but this guys made a GREAT INTERVIEW JOB. Not interrupting, flowing with the answers, making cleaver jokes (and not too many), avoiding stupid and recurrent topics (Cobain's life and death for instance). Excellent in every aspect.
He and I were born in the same hospital. 😎
Hung out with him and FF as a teenager in their RV outside an MTV thing over 25 yrs ago- they were exactly the same off camera, and way back then. Just normal fucking dudes hanging out, offering some star struck kids the snacks in their van and asking what we were learning in school and shit.
@@DannyBloomfieldBK……. To freaking cool , I hung out with Greg Allman back in the late 80’s for a few hours at first I was star struck within an hour it was like I was just hanging out with someone that I went through high school with……. He was just great and so generous with his time……
I’m a hip hop head but I LOVE Nirvana and Dave Grohl. This dude is so humble, he’s a legend
Real recognise real
Me too.
Yep. Same. And I love the Foos as well...
I’m a fan of all types of music mainly grindcore but love hip hop &, Dave Grohl
@@bloodmoon4012 oh shit if you like grindcore have you heard Ed Gein’s cover of Nirvana’s “Breed?” So damn good.
I think it speaks volumes that Dave has been in the music industry - and in the public eye - for over 30 years and has never had any huge scandals or controversy or bad allegations against him. That kind of impeccable track record can't just be luck and circumstance. I really believe he's a good guy.
I've heard it said that after shows, when bandmates would go out partying, he would go home to his family. Dude's a class act.
There was that one time when Foo Fighters were HIV/AIDS deniers, but they changed their minds later on anyways
Courtney love tried for many years to rip him on a lot of stuff. Never worked out in her favor though, thankfully
I'm a massive Foo Fighter fan aka Dave Grohl fan. So, when I can't sleep, I'll just pop down the UA-cam rabbit hole. I know that I can't watch a concert because there's no way in hell that I'll even get a nap. But, I love to watch interviews, biographies, and historical shit. The one consistent thing that I've heard about Dave is that he's the nicest guy in rock and roll. Over and over and over again, I've even looked for bad things that Dave has ever done and you get NOTHING! The only thing that I hope and pray for, is that if he still smokes cigarettes, please stop. I don't want anything to happen to him or anyone in the band, especially if it's something that he can control. Just listen to Jon Bon Jovi, whether you're a fan or not, listen to him a few years ago and listen to him today. I know he had surgery on his throat, not sure why, nodules maybe, but smoking for years didn't help.
@welljer Yeah, I almost forgot about her. She's crazy and scary too! I wonder if Francis Bean Cobain can sing.
I saw Dave outside of a restaurant one time, chasing his daughter around a fountain, laughing with her, picking her up, and living completely in the moment. Yes, he's a rock god, but it was obvious that before that, he was a great dad. I would love to meet him sometime, but I never considered interrupting him while he was with his family.
Well, I hope Dave sees this, I am certain he would appreciate your thoughtfulness at not interrupting his private life. If he does I hope he'll send you a message to say thanks, he is a Good bloke.
You're a good person! A lot of people wouldn't give it a second thought.
That was nice of you :)
Thx for sharing this authentic moment of his true character. Kudos for honoring his fam privacy and vibe.
That's the best. I happened to grow up around a very famous baseball player and he came to my Grandpa's funeral and people asked for photos while he was sitting next to a grieving family. The world needs more people like you.
I can honestly say, I'm a Black guy and if I hear "Everlong" in any format, rock or ballad, I'm jammin' to it.
@mickeydee23 Facts 👏🏾 👌🏾🔥🎵
Hell yeah!
Me too🎵🎵
That's my fave Foo song
Good music is good music, the race part is irrelevant to that. That's why even when racism was more than common, you had all those white kids listening in to music by black people. If it's good, people will listen!
Dave Grohl isn't a person, he is a singularity of good vibes, this dude is amazing.
Loved that they started out with the keanu reeves bit. Another great human who has not let fame or scandals impact who he is
Hard not to like a guy that's almost as hot sauce immune as Tommy Chong. HIs Hot Ones episode was great.
Him, and Keanu, have always had a special place in my heart. I find it very fitting that they referred to Dave, as Keanu, in the beginning of the video.
They are both really good guys with enormous hearts. They're very humble, easy going, kind, and giving men.
They both take the time to be there for others, and they try to help people. They do not do it for recognition, or publicity. They truly help out of the goodness of their hearts.
Earlier this year, Dave took his smoker to a homeless shelter, and spent over 24 hours cooking, and feeding, everyone. Back in 2018, when California was engulfed in wildfires (yet again) he barbecued for the firefighters. He gave a fan his pair of orthopedic shoes when he saw her on crutches. My favorite Dave moment was when he saw a blind boy at one of his shows. He bought the boy, and the boys dad, on stage and let the boy play on his guitar...I feel the list of good deeds is endless.
Keanu Reeves is also an amazing human. He gave his stunt team, from the Matrix, Harleys. He gave Rolex watches to the people he worked with on the set of John Wick. When he heard a crew member, on one of his films, was having money trouble, he gave him a $20,000 Christmas bonus. He regularly rides the subway and will give up his seat to others (elderly, pregnant women, disabled people, etc...). He sat with a homeless man before, and talked with him for hours, because the man just needed someone to talk to. He donated over 70% of hold matrix salary to cancer research. He's done so much more too.
Both men have also donated millions upon millions to various charities.
No bullshit, the Little Richard story HAS TO BE true! I met him in 1987 and sure enough, he was in the back of a limo - rolled down the back window half way and was like, "God bless you - so nice to meet you!"
@@tonydaletony RAH
I was standing on a street corner in Memphis. I'm waiting for a black SVU to go through the intersection so I can cross. The driver's window was rolled down and I was staring at Little Richard! I froze because the way he was driving so slow, I thought he was going to stop and say something. I was in shock, I didn't even wave. He was driving!
I had the same experience with Little Richard, he gave me his book and signed it.
Letterman was right saying Desus and Mero are the future of talk shows. None of the current late night talk shows could have such an interview so casual to get such natural insights from their guests.
a great insight. agreed.
#preach when I saw that moment I felt like David Letterman was the Bishop and gave these two men the blessing. It was so surreal.
Kinda dope that Letterman closed last episode with the Foo Fighters playing "Everlong" and now Desus and Mero have Dave Grohl on after getting Letterman's cosign.
You should also check out the Graham Norton Show if you haven't already! He's a quick witted and funny Irishman that gets guests to say the best/craziest stories, and he actually lets them talk, unlike the mainstream American late night show hosts.
@@aurelia5818 Every guest loves going on Graham's show. I was just listening to Miriam Margoyles audiobook and she was saying the same thing.
Did not want this conversation to end.
Can we just pause and admire how easy it was for him to come out with a killer beat just by snapping, slapping his leg and tapping his foot at 10:34. I know people are going to be like, "well duh! He's a musician" but come on! That was so off the cuff and he wasn't even paying attention to what he was doing. Love it.
Right on! I noticed that too and played it back a few times……I couldn’t do that in my lifetime and he just pops that shit out effortlessly
@@julianowen7377 I know right. Something I would plan and practice ahead before showcasing in front of others and he just flows it out…like musical butter 🤣
YES, YES, YES!!! I noticed that!!! SUPER-talented, humble, funny, resilient guy!!!
FOR SURE A SUPER SICK BEAT BRO !!!!!
took me some seconds to take it in as well
Dave is one of the few people who I've honestly never heard a bad word spoken about. He's just one of the most genuine people around, it's amazing how grounded he still is after all he's done.
Then you have fortunately missed the BS said about him by Courtney Love😣
@@Mialamorena1nobody listens to Courtney love
You obviously didn't hear a out the AIDS denial everyone knows about
They not lying. I seriously rock with David Grohl. Foo Fighters, Nirvana, Queens of the Stone Age, Tenacious D, I don't care. Dude is beyond likeable.
Nothing wrong with that dude.
All of the above except Tenacious D is on heavy rotation on my stream
@@mismissy Tenacious D goes hard bro
@@OGgluttonoustoad I can't stand Jack Black. Just a personal preference
They all get cookout invites!
Dave's a rockstar that schedule's his life around taking his kids to school in the morning. That's a blessed life.
schedules
@@boomertsfx1 I don't think AP Leith is going to thank you for showing him your superior grammar skills. It's not like you translated some ancient script to us; so give a guy a break.
@@therapist6328 well, a comment based on education I think warrants a slightly higher standard 😎
@@boomertsfx1 and an emoji?
Agree. That's what having your priorities straight means.
I just love him. Super talented and all around nice guy. He trolled the Westboro Church hard. How could you not like him?
I know, right?!!
Oh, those were EPIC!!! They'd do that and then go play to an arena of fans!
I think Dave just proved to the world that he could have a career as tenor in opera
Dave Grohl is the Forrest Gump of rock n roll. Everyone loves the guy. He’s done more shit and met more legends than you can imagine, but he’s still a down to earth guy that doesn’t know he’s big fuckin rock star. He’s just DAVE!
I love watching him play drums.. it stops there.
Oh he knows.. he's just authentic and appreciative.
@@tross6380 Why's that?
The Melvins, Mudhoney, Soundgarden and about every other musician from Seattle that knew Dave before Nevermind all tell the same story about Dave Grohl cutting all ties with them post-Foo Fighters, because Mr. Rock Star Grohl is too important to talk to the peons anymore. So, yeah, there's a pretty large contingent of musicians who don't have anything nice to say about Dave Grohl.
@Marvin Smith just because they played shows together back in the day doesn't necessarily mean they were ever actually friends. Maybe he didn't have any sort of obglition to them.
Everyone loves Dave! He's like the big friendly Golden Retriever of rock n' roll.
What a good way to describe him!
Great description!!!
Yes exactly I totally agree
Golden retriever of rock n roll! What a great and beautiful and I think true picture ♥️🤘
This is how I describe him too!
Who wouldn’t love this guy. He’s a ball of positive energy and he’s funny as hell
Met Dave in around 2015 and he was everything you’d want him to be ❤❤❤
Thank you very much for the love and support, where are you from?
Dave is the ultimate Everyman. One of those rare people who becomes wildly successful but never ever stops being as excited about what he does as when he dreamed about doing it. His greatness is something everyone can aspire to because rather than seeing his own greatness he seems to always approach everyone else with the attitude of "Oh my god I'm having such a great time. Want to come along?" His joyful passion about music and life in general is contagious. I hope he is able to keep rocking for decades to come. The world is a better place because Dave Grohl is in it.
Dave Grohl is great. But no matter your attitude we won't all get a break by being in a band like Nirvana. He's been lucky as well.
Hear hear
spot fucking on brother its daves world an we just along for the ride
Very well said! 🤘🧔🏻♀️
Good is as good does.
The Brand has reached Nirvana
Nicely played
Beautiful bruh
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Take a bow, you won.
Close the comments section. This is the one. 👏🏾👍🏾👌🏾
Bless this.
Dave Grohl makes me smile every time I see him, hes just a ray of sunshine.
How often do you see them
'Music is the one thing that brings people together'. This is why I love Dave Grohl!
my guys got dave grohl on the show, jesus christ. the brand is strong forever
Dave got a permanent invite to the cookout.
What about an n-pass?
@@blankblank2370 nah, no pass. Actual invite. And I'm making his plate🤟🏿
@@christenford3864 So he gets to say the n-word for the rest of his life? Cool.
@@blankblank2370 being at the cook out = saying that word? Umm, ok
@@blankblank2370 quit reaching!
As a guy who works in the live music industry and has seen iconic musicians getting together for the first time to just have fun jamming during soundcheck...let me tell you...those are the greatest musical performances I've ever seen in my life.
Came for Dave, staying for Desus and Mero. Y'all slayed me!
Same!!
Me too
I met Little Richard once too in the Memphis airport. He was sitting and surrounded by bodyguards and I walked up to them and the body guards said he wasn't talking to anyone right now. He reached out from behind his guards to shake my hand and I shook his hand and he said "God bless you". He's the coolest. It's better than getting blessed by the pope.
😁
thought said blessed by the pipe at first , thought gonna turn into crack smoking with little richard story, but my 8th grade education has that affect on me sometimes , and yes i quit school to be full time crack head , didnt pan out for me , seams need alot of money to be full time crack head . would of stayed in school if i would of known that ! system still failed me
That’s so awesome! What a wonderful moment.
@@brianpinion5844 you failed yourself.
@@orangutanxremix510 what a ray of sunshine. Addiction’s a disease, not a sin. Kids’ brains get hooked harder because they’re still developing, and kids are inexperienced enough to think they can do it just once. I’m so glad you got to share your opinions though, hope it was good for you or something
I had a huge crush on him growing up... Now I'm old and he's old but nothing has changed.
He’s pretty addictive.. his personality makes him even more attractive
Lol! Same! He gets better with age!
Y'all crazy over Chris Cornell (RIP) and Myles Kennedy?.🤣
Same. Loved Chris Cornell but Dave was on a different level 🤣
@@theinfamousjellybean467 AH, NOPE!
Hes loved by everyone because he's real. He doesn't put on airs. What you see is what you get.
The thing I love about Dave is that he really hasn’t forgotten what it’s like to be that kid (or adult) who is obsessed with music and just wants to play with their heroes. Even though he’s now one of those heroes, he hasn’t forgotten what it’s like to be a regular person. I think that’s one of the reasons why people love him so much.
Respect to him giving little richard his flowers and recognising him over the blue suede shoes guy
Carl Perkins is the blue suede shoe guy ,, I think you mean Elvis lol
He always did. Dave Grohl grew up right outside DC. I’m sure he appreciates the culture, lol.

I'm black...39 and went to see them in Saint Louis earlier this year....the foo are in my top 5 greatest bands of all time. Dave grohl is the most human and chill rockstar ever
Bang on. What you said about being 'human' is what stands out most to me. There are a lot of bands I like more tbh (though I love some Foo Fighter songs) but few musicians that seem better humans than Grohl.
These guys are great interviewers, ask a question, and let the person speak,
credit to you guys,
brilliant interview.
Dave is totally Northern Virginia. I’m a bit older but grew up only about 5 miles away. He’s like the regular people I grew up with. Down to earth and just wants to have a good time. It’s what I love about the Foo Fighters. Was supposed to see them in May.
Really glad I ran across your channel. You all are fun and funny. It’s been a week since Taylor died, and the first day I could listen to Foo Fighters without crying. Thank you for the smiles. I look forward to more.
Shit I was a black kid i was listening nirvana back in the day. The foo fighters been my jam since day one.
Right!
Same!
Are you still Black? 😁. I was a Black kid too listening to all kinds of stuff. Bad Brains is a must listen.
Same!
Facts!
Dude the chemistry between Mero and Dave, they do need a dad show.
As much as I watch the show I can never remember who's who. But you just made me realize I can remember now! Gracias
this feels like a million dollar podcast idea
@@lowkeybruja, they started as a podcast ... then Showtime grabbed them.
The other night they joked about running for office (mayor of NYC?), and stated that regardless of the rules, they would do it as a team.
Great interview. I've come to the conclusion that Dave Grohl may be my all time favorite rock star because of his good nature.
Feeling for him today and all in the Foo Fighters family .
I love him. Especially when he talks about his kids running away from the pancakes. Thanks Dave . You always cheer me up
I love when he tells a story he's nonchalant and not boasting.
But honestly, his entire life is a flex, and I love how he knows, and jokes about it in a non douche bag way.
Finally giving Little Richard the respect he deserves. For being the one that paved the way for rock n roll. Dave you truly rock on the stage and off the stage.🤘
What do you mean finally? He's always been the undisputed guy that started it all. I could see an argument for Chuck Berry. But I think most people give the distinction of the inventor of modern rock to Richard.
He's was the only one. Elvis and Jerry Lee Lewis was in on it too
Little Richard, Chuck Berry.
Dave is knowledgable and respectful, and that’s one reason why he’s successful.
LOADS of people give him credit.
This is probably one of the most entertaining interview/ interviewers i've ever seen. Everything was genuine.
My mom and I heard about Foo Fighters forming while listening to the radio in the car as usual. Since she already had her Nirvana repertoire on lock, she was delighted, and their songs got mixed in with the random songs I would catch her singing. Later, when I was teaching 6-8th grade at a Title 1 middle school, a trip to the guidance counselor's office would become a 20min black lady discussion on how much we loved Foo Fighters. 🍫
That one sound guy went home to tell everyone about how he was the only one who saw Prince and Dave Grohl play "Whole Lotta Love" and everyone was probably like "yeah right Carl, stfu you liar"
I remember this story about a dude who worked in the desert in Nevada in the early 80s, swore he saw a flying triangle one night, no one believed him. About a decade later he saw that triangle on the TV dropping bombs over Iraq, they called it a B-2. Carl will get his recognition, I trust the karma.
I got to sit in one when i was kid when my dad was in the air force. Definitely the coolest ride I've ever been in.
That's alright. CARL knows what he saw and heard. Must be awesome having a memory like that just tucked in the ol' pocket.
Hes a sick drummer. Black people feel the rhythm. Thanks Dave, you're a badass.🤘🏾
I always say Dave is one of the greatest drummers of all time
@@Goatchild90 He can play anything but he definitely has his own style.
Grohl said he made a great living ripping off Chester Thompson.....
His drumming on QOTSA's Song for the Deaf is the reason I picked up drums in my early 20s.
@@jovanreid6782 Have you heard Them crooked vultures?
Grohl,Homme, John Paul Jones.
Next level!!
5:12 I saw them at Lollapalooza in 2011 and we all sang Times Like These in the pouring rain. I saw them again in Jersey and when they finished there were fireworks and they took a helicopter directly to 30 Rock to perform on the season finale of SNL (Kristen Wiig's last episode). This band has given me and so many others such fond memories. Times like these, man...
He and his music are relatable to all ppl because he exudes soul. He put his soul into his music and we can feel that. It's a whole vibe. AND he credits the pioneers of the art form. #classAct
He seems like the guy you'd be starstruck by until he starts talking to you. He's disarming like an old friend you just reconnected with after decades.
I would be pretty starstruck at first, but he would make you immediately comforted. I feel like I’d calm down pretty quickly!
He really has everything sorted out mentally- grounded, humble, talented, chrisma and super social and therefore is able to enjoy everything in life as a cool legend!
Did you see the video with him and the band when he brought the 8 year old girl on to play the drums? Probably the coolest story of the year. She's an incredible drummer and she made a video challenging him to a drum off and then she ended up in stage with one of her idols. And it wasn't a charity case or him being nice because she played that part as good as Dave does.
@@thisisisabella3634 yes she’s def a prodigy. I’ve watched some of her videos. A little 🧨 on those drums! I love it when she can’t contain herself & just yells while she’s playing
He’s got a really solid, supportive mom. Dave wasn’t doing drugs or alcohol back in the “Grunge” days, as so many were. Still doesnt. I think if you come from a supportive positive loving upbringing, odds are you’ll wind up more like Dave than poor Kurt. Dave’s a really decent guy too.
@@dshepherd107 He has said in interviews that he watched too many of his friends go down the drug & alcohol path & didn't want that, shows strength of character.
Well, I hope that's true... but keep in mind that that's just what he shows. You never can tell how public figures really are
I actually had a Coors Light with Dave back in Mountain View backstage at the Shoreline Pavilion. Super humble and friendly.
One of the reasons why I love Dave is that he loves all music, periodt! Full stop! He explains that his inspiration comes from The Gap Band, disco, funk AND rock! He is a renaissance man for sure!
"I'll call Barry."- God level flex.
Jesus. Thanx yall. (Thanks publicist and manager)
ON GOD!
He’s a human being first. A friend and a father. And he rocks the stadiums off their foundation. Legend
He also does so much for his community, cooking massive meals for the firefighters that are out there battling the wildfires, donating his time and money, doing USO trip…they don’t make them like him anymore, he will go down as a legend. A classic.
Foo fighters suck
@@jacobkramer42 sounds like you probably suck. Must be hard to be below average and hate one of the all time greatest bands and just group of men, in general. If you can’t see that Dave Grohl is a good and decent person, man, you might should seek help! 🤷🏻♀️
@@jacobkramer42 sounds like someone is desperate for attention
The great Stevie Wonder once sung, “music is music is a world within itself, with a language.” Music brings so many people together and Dave Grohl is legend!
Awesome interview format - natural captivating flow with no cringe or yawns.
Grohl is awesome. An amazing drummer and rhythm guitarist/vocalist/songwriter.
He is so positive and just a beautiful soul.
Everyone doesn’t realize how versatile Dave ghrol is. If you google or read the liner notes of some albums (rap, r&b, alternative, pop,etc), grohl was drumming.
He stole the beat for "smells like tern spirit " from the band Chic. He admits to it on his documentary.

This is like the first time I haven't gotten bored 5 mins into the vid. I love Dave my mom has been in love with that man since nirvana and I loved how this interview just feels like a few guys shootin the shit
Thank you very much for the love and support, where are you from?
Dude Dave is a legend for his music and for being an awesome guy. You can't deny the charisma of a guy who can come onto a show and barely has to be asked questions and can take over with entertaining conversation, but still include everyone somehow. What a Chad of epic proportions man.
I thought it was great that Dave had two tables right in front of him and instead of putting his Water Bottle on one of the Tables he sat it on the floor next to him, It's a habit as a drummer that's hard to break, because it's just muscle memory. I still catch myself doing it from time to time, and I haven't played Drums in years. Kudos to a great interview with Dave Grohl, he has always got great stories to tell =)
Thanks for that insight!
Its truth, I do it too
Also in a studio you dont want water near the boards, dj's do it too
As a drummer I didn't even notice until you pointed it out. It seemed completely normal to me.
As someone who’s Bodegahive and a fan of the Foos for 10+ years, this feels like my worlds are colliding.
100%
They always do mind boggling collabs. BodegaHive everywhere
True Facts
Major
I feel the same!
Dave is the most humble guy ever.
He is a great example of what being “born to do it” …follow your passion y’all
Dave's voice is so strong. Seeing him live is better than the recording, so much energy in a foo fighters show
Agree
Bruh he sings every other line and then goes “WHOAYEAHHHHH” for the rest. I love Dave but his voice is shot.
Are you having a laugh. I love him to bits but he does not have a strong voice. He can't hold any notes live. Just sings as hard as he can (which is essentially a shout) and runs around trying to get people excited. Loads of the great melodies on the records just get hacked up live (or sung by the audience alone)
Omg I wish I could one day.
I always wondered why they keep playing in small venues when they can sell out a stadium. I caught a show in August at a small venue in Oklahoma. I see why. It's so much more intimate in a smaller crowd. Great show.
I wasn't aware of these two hosts, but after watching this and how friendly the atmosphere they have, how respectful and engaged they were with Dave - truly makes this interview so much more magical than the vanilla late night shows.
Plus, the fact they can swear this allowing Dave to be more Dave really boosts this, great job and I'll absolutely be checking out your other videos. Subscribed 😊
welcome!
Desus & Mero are definitely worth checking out. They'll interview world leaders the same way.
Amen! they are engaging with Dave and not trying to be the center of attention "JIMMY"
Check out their interview with David Letterman, it's by far the best/most enjoyable Letterman has ever done (being interviewed).
Sometimes they're over-the-top goofy, but they've done some great interviews. Going to D.C. to hang with Obama was epic.
It's impossible not to love Dave, he's so grounded and genuine.
I could sit and listen to Dave tell stories for 10 hours and still be 100% into it. I was there back in the day when he first joined Nirvana and had even heard of his previous bands Scream and Dain Bramage. Dude has been a great story teller his whole life, although he was definitely much more shy back in the late 80s / early 90s.
The best part is when Dave says "I'll call Barry". Everyone laughs, but everyone knows Dave can just call Barry. That's when you know you've got the world by the balls.
That was a flex

FUCKIN' A!
I'm lowkey sad that I only stumbled on you guys just now. This interview was so fun, felt organic, and I need more of it. Definitely looking for more from you guys.

I love hearing Dave speak about his life as a musician. For someone so talented (master of multiple instruments, singer, song writer) whenever he speaks he’s so humble. He speaks like he’s a friend of yours, so relatable.
My favorite thing about Dave Grohl is that after achieving worldwide fame and fortune he went on to start a one-man BBQ catering company.

crazy to think i haven't gone a year with out listening to foo fighters in like 20 years. Dave's vocals never fail to hype me up.
"We might not be able to license that" " I'll call Barry". That has to be one of the most bad ass things i have heard on a youtube video.
These two are insanely talented interviewers! First time seeing them and nothing said was cringe worthy. Just plain fun chatting. Loved it from start to finish! Awesome!
And THEY LET HIM SPEAK. totally agree, they know how to conduct an interview
Watch them whenever you can. Endlessly entertaining.
Yes! They are really funny and loose
Same here, instant fan!
I was thinking the exact same thing. Love these guys, I only watched because of Dave, now I'm a fan!
Storyteller was a PHENOMENAL book! It solidified that Dave is one of the coolest people on the planet and confirmed that my creative path (comics, not music) is my path!
Thank you Dave!
He sure can write, TOO. A true ROCKSTAR.
omggg what a great interview....
I did security for a Foo Fighters show that was a "fan club only" thing, back in 2008 at the Troubadour (they called it the "Foobadour" for that gig) in LA, & he told the funniest stories on stage. I'm not a fan of his music, but, I like him as a person. He's cool AF, & this interview just proves it.
I know exactly what show you're talking about!! I didn't get in but I stayed the entire time outside and got to meet him + the band after the show. Most epic night of my teenage life.
Right on! We just need to appreciate good people!
uh oh a susan boyle fanboy
@@ElLuigiGrande Yeah...he REALLY is a stand up guy! I'm actually happy for his success!
Wow! I would've fell out. Troubadour has the best shows. Better than Whiskey a go go had.
Dave is the only musician I would ever want to meet. He is so effortlessly cool.
He from the DMV and he knows what true rhythm is (a unwavering pocket), how can he not coming from there.
i love this interview format.
The way he straight fan-boy'd over Little Richard 😍😍😍 My heart melted.
Acoustic version of "Everlong" is my shit!
Amen! Was one of the first acoustic songs I had to learn when I picked up the guitar
Totally. That song hit me right in the heart when I heard it. It's so beautiful.
LOVED THIS INTERVIEW!!!
Love this interview
My younger sister is the biggest Dave Ghrol fan. I’ll send her this interview
Hell yesssss
Love Dave ❤️
Everyone, no matter race, loves Dave Grohl. It's not about color. It's human affection and charm.
took video the wrong way
Maybe apply that to your actual life?
Ok.... but we're talking about a specific connection here so.....
We found that “all lives matter” guy
The way it should be with everyone but isnt unfortunately
I could've had an hour of this. Incredible interview
This is a great interview!
i never met a black person that didn't like Nirvana. Dave has an amazing career
Luther Vandross
Actually, I got into Dave Grohl back in 2002 because of QOTSA's Song for the Deaf, then I gradually made my way to Foo Fighters. To this day, I'm not into Nirvana, not that I dislike the band- it's just that I discovered Jane's Addiction first. Just saying.
@@dickmonkey-king1271 wha? he didn't like them? lol
You have to be of a certain skin colour to like a certain kind of music?
Their music definitely isn’t for everyone. I’m not black but just as a Nirvana fan, I realize they can be hit or miss with some people.
Who doesn't love Dave Grohl????!!!!! (Many thanks to Dave Grohl's mom for doing such a great job!!!!)
Courtney Love :P
This was a great interview! Very fun and insightful questions.
Long time fan of this man, seen many an interview over the years and you two gents have conducted one of the best.
We must protect Dave Grohl at all costs. He's one of the greatest dudes of our generation.
He really is , he’s genuine af humble cool dude
Preach. Theres actually a long list of musicians I like better to be honest, but as a human, hard to think of almost anyone! Like ever. lol
The moment Mero realizes he’s singing with Dave Grohl omg ❤️
This was a great watch!
This is true. I rocked with Queens of the Stone Age, Foo Fighters, and Them Crooked Vultures because of Dave. Might not be of the GOAT drummers, but absolutely one of the GOAT rock stars of the last 30 years. Cool as shit.
Queen's of the stone age, I forgot, good looking Finns get some music!!! Dave is a dope drummer, his masterclass (?) On drumming was fire
Yes! I saw Them Crooked Vultures live. Dave was a beast on the drums. A pure hard rock drummer.
Yeah, he is all good vibes and no fear!
His work on QOTSA alone solidifies his status as the greatest drummer ever.
His work with Nirvana solidifies him as a GOAT drummer
