    "It's your voice. Cherish it, respect it, nurture it, challenge it, strech it, scream it until it's fucking gone. Beacuse everyone's blessed with at least that. And who knows how long it will last."
    Good advice on someone who is a little shy to sing, me.

      Remember to never try to hold your voice back, or attempt singing quietly due to shyness. From personal experience, going back to 1981, you need to sing full voice, and of course songs have quieter passages. Still when you try to hold back full voice, not leaning into it...i promise this universal mistake all of us who sing have made will ruin your night.
      Always trust your voice and training...if you sing full trained voice, it is far less likely you'll go flat, or out of key, breath or both. i can guarantee failure if you try to shortcut or half-ass it. i've suffered from that mistake in front of a small, party sized audience once. From then on, i figured, if i fuck up trying to hold back, how could going for it make it worse? Never happened again...galvanizing event!
      Do you devote much time to practicing your instrument? Also, are you caring for it as one should with such a treasure? There is an herbal tea called "Voice" that i use regularly i think it is the Yogi Tea company, but i'll post full info when sure. Joni Mitchell does a mixture of hot water, a little lemon juice, honey, and a tablespoon of Apple cider vinegar as a gargle just prior to practice or performance...i also play guitar, and i baby every single one of my beautiful instruments....i do the same for my vocal instrument...try taking day long breaks from speaking, if it is possible...rest is essential for your voice. Drink 80+ ounces of water daily. Aside from that, work with a vocal coach, and you will be sorted.
      Ready for your first hit!
      Stay Healthy and take care,

Being as I've been to two of them (Of the MANY concerts over the years) and of the five physical altercations I've been in as an adult, four of them were at those two concerts.

    He is an incredible drummer, songwriter and overall musician. He is also one of the few people that you don't get mad at his success, or jealous of it, because he is also another rare thing, a decent human being. You cheer him on, are happy for him, and you do this because you know that he would do the same for you.

There's always better musicians and usually there's a reason or reasons why they aren't successful and it typically doesn't have anything to do with talent or ability. It's usually attitude and likeability that holds people back.

      Guilt and fear are important indicators for limitations in life. From Guilt well learn what is wrong and in turn learn to avoid it. Fear tells us not to push it too much towards discomfort or death. Understanding secondary negative emotions and over coming them through improved behaviour and replacing them with primary emotions like Joy and Happiness.

      The Internet Killed Music I agree with you. I do respect David Ghrol, but his advice is fairly antiquated. The days of success from paying your dues are over.
      We just need to figure out a new way to make musical opportunities again, because the ones we know of are declining as we speak.

    • @evanmarshallryanfemali7725

      It's easy to say "touring is where it's at," but how much longer will that be a legit source of income? Before you know it, the chart toppers won't even be able to bring 100 people, and it is definitely the easiest way to burn out. I hope to get the proper equipment to utilize the internet more myself.

      @evanmarshallryanfemali7725 8 років тому +1

      I do recall losing all my money from your I expenses when I was 20, and you are right. And being established with a fan base is just barely possible anymore, and even at that, you're just making hundreds of dollars a year. All these bands want to "pay their dues," but the days of getting discovered from doing so are gone with the wind.
      I have grown to embrace a boring life just working, saving money, having health insurance, etc.

Maybe or maybe not. Still I wouldn't put that decision in the hands of these people who have lesser musicianship and songwriting talent.

      The Foo Fighters aren't necessarily my favorite band ever....they're kind of a modern rock version of "classic rock." It's all a bit too polished and friendly for my tastes...although they have many killer songs, the latest single(Run) being a prime example, and one of their best songs in years. But....despite my lukewarm interest in that band, I've always massively respected Dave as a person and musician. He's absolutely the real deal, and seems to be a genuinely great human being. There's plenty of super creative idiosyncratic musicians from his generation to draw inspiration from.....so I'm kinda glad Dave's always sidestepped that scene and those vices and instead done his own thing. It's not precisely my cup of tea, but I sure as hell respect it...and find him to be a very inspiring person. Hope he's around for a long time....this world needs his voice!

    I'm a country music singer/songwriter that has been inspired by Dave's writing and vocal/musical delivery of the greatest music I have ever heard. Without sharing too much detail, here's a short story. I had just come out of heart breaking relationship that devastated me on all levels. I was riding in a friends car and the song "The Best Of You" came on the radio and it hit me on a very positive way. I later bought the CD and played that song several times every day for months. It helped get my life back on track. Love you Dave, thanks do much.

    "Just do it" is my favorite. I've played guitar for over a year now. I still suck but I suck in a good way. I'm constantly expanding my horizons with my playing technique and have bought a music mixing console that records. I've set up a band room with drums an Xbox and trippy posters and I basically live in that room. I've played my first guitar every day since I bought it and have loved more than any guitar I've ever played. It's a strat hss. I've learned to jam with a drummer and I'm constantly thinking about ways to play music for large audiences. Nothing can stop me from doing so. I just have to play in a band. There's no way I can't do it. I'll have to "just do it"

But....despite my lukewarm interest in that band, I've always massively respected Dave as a person and musician. He's absolutely the real deal, and seems to be a genuinely great human being. There's plenty of super creative idiosyncratic musicians from his generation to draw inspiration from.....so I'm kinda glad Dave's always sidestepped that scene and those vices and instead done his own thing.

    • @duhhead10
      @duhhead10 8 років тому +12

      I have such a problem with this, to be honest. I can't get good at anything I do, no matter how hard I try. It seems like there's this giant wall that prevents me from going anywhere. I completely understand the hopeless feeling. And yes, it's true that not everyone will be able to write music like Cobain, play like Michael Jordan, or even become President of the United States...only a select few will be able to achieve that level of success. Some people seem to possess a "natural talent" that most of us don't have. Yet that doesn't have to stop you from trying your best at everything. When you say you've tried lots of stuff...at what point did you give up? Becoming better at something is way more of a mental game than a physical one. It's really easy for you to become mentally pessimistic, which affects your physical performance, which in turn causes you to think that you aren't good enough. For me, it reaches the point where I think "natural talent" is the only way I'll be able to get better. "Oh, he's better than me at trumpet, he must have god-given chops". "Oh, he's better than me at baseball, he must a natural combination of hand-eye coordination and power". It is at that point that I, personally, give up. But if there's anything I've learned it's this: it's all in your mind. People can criticize you all they want, but you've got to understand that you are the only one who can truly determine your confidence and drive to push forward. It's really fucking difficult and quite cliche, but simply put, you've just gotta believe in yourself. People will criticize you and try to put you down; screw them, just keep pushing forward. If you like what you do, keep doing it. Otherwise, you'll just be miserable. I'm not the best at playing (I mostly play guitar) and I'm most certainly not an excellent songwriter. But by god I love it, and I'll continue doing it because it pleases me. Songwriting, I feel, gives me purpose and a way to express myself. Don't compare yourself to other people and lament over how you're inferior to them, because at the end of the day, that's only convincing yourself that you suck and that you should give up. How good they are has no bearing on how good you will be. I'm absolutely sure you're better than you think you are. Just keep pushing forward.

    Love Dave Grohl. Nirvana was the band for Gen X and I am do grateful I was young when they came on the scene. When Kurt died it was a shock to the nation. Then a few years later I hear this new band I really liked, and I found out it was fronted by Dave Grohl and it was like a second chance for Nirvana fans to feel that passion and excitement all over again. Foo Fighters!!!

    The 'Figure it out' is my favorite and most valuable advice...if you really want something bad enough, you will indeed figure it out. If you don't figure it out, then you simply didn't want it bad enough.

    "you gotta be focused and passionate"
    If you check out the story of the beginnings of groups like Alice in Chains and Guns n Roses, it´s amazing how focused and hard working they were, they lived together and played +5hours a day, every single day. No exceptions.
    It´s not a coincidence, they were really really hard workers, plus very very talented.

    I have to say some of the best musicians in the world are not known, the world knows nothing about them, they have not been discovered yet. So you can be the best musician in the world but if you are not discovered yet then you will go no where. Whose responsibility is it to get you discovered, well I guess that is yours. So being talented and being discovered are two different things

    17 months ago (about one month after the publish date of this video) my musical partner died suddenly. It was devastating. I have not been able to write, play, or even sing in front of people because it is just too painful. I have mental illness and music has always been how I work stuff out. When you are dealing with heavy stuff and can't go to what helps you work it out because that's where the pain is, it's awful. My partner and I shared a love of the Foo Fighters and Dave is not just my Rock n Roll hero, he is someone I look up to as an example of how to be an awesome F*in human being. Thank you for this video. It reminds me why I admire him so much and listening him talk about how devastated he was after Kurt died gives me hope that I too will bounce back to do what I love.

    Yeah, if you're really good you'll succeed. And especially if a genius happens to come a long to write some huge rock classics for you to play drums on. Luck has nothing to do with it Dave. Any good drummer, if you're driven, will end up playing in a legendary rock band.

  • @ifwecouldvote
    @ifwecouldvote 8 років тому +17

    Dave is clearly a great bloke, and I love his songwriting, but I think a lot of "making it" is just pure chance - being in the right place at the right time. For him, it was being a friend of a friend of Kurt Cobain's who happened to be looking for a new drummer. If he hadn't made it into Nirvana, I really don't think he'd have had the opportunity to develop the Foo Fighters so quickly with an existing fanbase, connections in the music industry, money to fund it, etc. etc.

    • @EvanCarmichael
      @EvanCarmichael  8 років тому +2

      You have to be good AND lucky. There's a mountain of incredibly talented musicians that have never made it big, or even small. There are also quite a few not-so-great musicians who have become incredibly famous and rich. So, I agree that the best way to be successful in music is to actually be good, but sometimes it certainly pays to be lucky and/or very good at marketing.

      @aidan mcnally: Yes, may be he is lucky to get these opportunities and be this famous but my friend, it doesn't really matter if you would be famous or not - you should just love, and be passionate of what you do. And that's precisely, we love Dave Grohl and feel motivated. I am sure there are people who are just as happy as Dave Grohl by loving what they do and are not famous. As he says - "Driver/ catalyst for playing music is that you should love playing music". :)

      XBebopo was it luck that made Dave Grohl practice drumming "his way" in the 80's. No, it was a conscious decision. Was it luck that was responsible for Dave to go out and start writing a demo (on his own) while he was in Nirvana? No. He had songs he wanted to record. Was it luck that he recorded his demo in 5 days playing ALL the instrument by himself? See where I'm going with this, right?
