I am 59 years old. In my day, I have seen the Doors. Led Zep, Rod Stewart and the Faces, Yes, ELP, Mountain, and Eric Clapton in concert, just to name a few. Musically, I have been living under a rock the last ten years. However, I discovered the Foo Fighters a few days a go and man, these guys can rock.
Nobody's denying this. However, he's not a success because he can hit a chord, use his hearing, and know which string is flat or sharp. Let's not get carried away... Sir.
I thought I noticed that. The set is from the album cover of some old Beatles album, the dress of course reminds us of 1964 Beatles. It's quite cool. The album was "Something New" in the U.S. www.google.com/search?q=beatles+album+covers&espv=2&biw=1225&bih=495&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjI7L-YpbjOAhVGBMAKHUKoCz4Q_AUIBigB#imgrc=OOlgVQ122tiOEM%3A
The "Punk-Beatles". No kidding. I'm glad Dave Grohl survived the ultra-self-destructive Kurt Cobain when he was the drummer of Nirvana. Paul McCartney plays DRUMS on one of their new tracks, not kidding either !
Respect to Dave Letterman for having good taste with this band... and salute on Everlong being the final Farwell to Letterman. Aaaaaand Rock in Peace Taylor. You left your footprints for sure.
SuperMisterKory Honestly, Taylor Hawkins is a very average drummer. His chops are no better than anyone you'd hold in the "top drummer category" (short of Travis Barker, who also sucks). Dave is wildly overrated as a drummer, which isn't to say he's bad, he's just overrated
If there is one thing I cannot stand is people who complain about Dave Grohl not using a digital tuner after stopping a minute in to tune his guitar. So what? Learn to Fly was recorded while it was just Dave, Taylor and Nate, so is a one guitar song. They are now playing with three guitarists, so no sound is lost here (to be honest, I found it a bit overkill but the performance is killer in spite of that). Besides, tuning the guitar manually keeps the live perfomance as it should be; real as shit. If more artists took Dave Grohl's old school approach to music I could learn to appreciate the industry as a whole.
Brian Bradshaw I guess the ones who complained about it would prefer if Dave hadn't tuned and continued playing the whole song out of tune or maybe not playing at all... much better solutions...
Brian Bradshaw I actually thought it was pretty fuckin awesome that he had the skill to keep the song moving seemlessly while stopping to do it. It added to the song more than it detracted.
Brian Bradshaw actually learn to fly was recorded, along with all the tracks on the 1st album, by Foo Fighters as a one man band, dave himself. it was something of a healing process for him after kurt died. then the problem came with touring....that's when he eventually end up with taylor and nate. and i agree......nothing wrong with the performance....that's what rock is all about! and tuning the guitar on the fly? that's just Dave being BADASS LOL
Ricardo Martin Brian Bradshaw Totally agree with both, a direct performance is as this, the things have to fixed or adjust in the run if happen, not can say (and more in an evil place as a performance live in TV or similar): "stop , my guitar sound bad, let me adjust this and we start again". Not always is possible, and the rest of the band was demostrate also profesionality, the song have to continue, sure they was noticed the trouble but they not stopped, why trust into theyself and done.
even if he's not playing at that exact moment, it still takes concentration to tune your guitar. Plus, he's singing at the same time. So he IS performing and tuning at the same time, which is quite impressive!!
See where Dave tunes his guitar, without missing a beat on the vocals? That’s professionalism right there. It isn’t about never having issues on stage; it’s about how you deal with them. He’s a total inspiration to all of us musicians out there! Oh, and that’s also the reason why every single guitarist and bassist needs to be plugged into a chromatic tuner at all times. Not those crappy things you put on your headstock; a good BOSS chromatic tuner. Allows you to do tuning adjustments during a gig without making any noise while doing so. Also allows you to tune, despite the noise around you (whether it’s from the rest of the band playing the song, the venue, or your bandmates fucking around during practice).
foo fighters are a true raw band, never get tired of this band, i never get tired of learn to fly video, awesome,i don't know who does, i hope they keep bangin out the hits
_One of the greatest rock bands to come out of the 90's and Seattle. With their tenth album coming out next month, I'm beyond excited. (Other favorites just prior to Foo Fighters would have to be Nirvana, Collective Soul, and Stone Temple Pilots). Dave Grohl is one helluva a front man, drummer, lyricist, guitarist, and all around great human being._
This will always and will be my all time favorite Foo Fighters song, it helped me get through a rough spot in my life, along with the song Walk. Thanks guys, you all have a heart of gold that is tough as concrete.
It's fricken ultimate to be a Foo Fighters fan. They give so much to us. First the new album as a stream over the internet, and then these kind of concerts. Can't wait to see them live this summer!
Totally impressed that Dave Grohl can turn off his amp, tune his guitar (if you listen closely, you can hear the dischord prior to his tuning), turn his amp back on and not miss a beat. First saw the Foo Fighters in concert in 99(?) with my son and a bunch of his friends, and I'm still a huge fan. Loving the Beatles look they have on this particular show . . .
This song came in a setlist directly after they'd just played their full new album non-stop... Yes, his voice is flat, but to be honest, it's a fucking miracle he had any voice left at all after the 'Wasting Light' set. The guy's a machine.
When I finally get to make a show about my 8th grade year someday, this will definitely be in it. Album came out right around the beginning of the school year. Unforgettable...
Run and tell all of the angels This could take all night Think I need a devil to help me get things right Hook me up a new revolution 'Cause this one is a lie We sat around laughing and watched the last one die Now I'm looking to the sky to save me Looking for a sign of life Looking for something to help me burn out bright I'm looking for a complication Looking 'cause I'm tired of lying Make my way back home when I learn to fly high.

+Rahadyan Puspa Kumala both of you are wrong, they're from me.... ok, it doesn't matters how many times you watch it, youtube counts only one (sorry for the spanglish xD)
It's a crowd of Ellen Degeneres fans, not necessarily Foo Fighters fans. The demographics change rapidly between the two, and therefore, so do the reactions to them playing, unfortunately.
In a way it's a good thing because then the band doesn't have to try and compete with the audience with noise level and they can focus more on the sound, which makes for a wayyyy better mix.
HawaZD "Howard" Ouyang so the guy tunes his guitar during a performance. So what’s your point snowflake millennial? You apparently don’t play a musical instrument to bring this petty BS up. The bigger issue is why you don’t have a job yet and still living in your aging parents basement.

Pretending to be the Beatles

David Gohl rocks.
Guitar tune up while singing ! Multi task Dave you're great !!
Yes!! Awesome
yea, a true musician, he's one of the best
pablof59 A true legend :)

The tribute to the beatles in dress and set ,fucking classy!

Dave Letterman has said Foo’s is his favourite band.
Dave always had great artists on his show, I miss him.
taylor hawkins is such an underrated drummer, he's so amazing!!
Thank
I think Dave is as well, tbh. He gets credit but not the amount he deserves. He's actually incredible.

This song never gets old, even this is old. Still rockin'!
What a wonderful drumer is Taylor...
We gonna miss you 4ever dear man!! No one at the drums like you!!

This is my favourite song of Foo Fighters. Ii is a brilliant song!
I listen to this song every time I get on a plane
JP Alpha glad I'm not the only one
Me too, Dude!🤘🏻
Let’s keep it going boys, thought I was the only one lolol
Why? It actually has nothing to do with actual flying.
Just dont listen to explosion in the sky guys...
Thanks for the memories Taylor.... You will be greatly missed!
Love the beatle get up.
Dave is such a badass, he can tune his guitar and sing, all while being badass.
This will always and will be my all time favorite Foo Fighters song, it helped me get through a rough spot in my life, along with the song Walk. Thanks guys, you all have a heart of gold that is tough as concrete.
They're all awesome. Not only Dave , everyone is always talking about Dave.
0:35 tuning his guitar in the middle of a major performance...... a master musician
kurt did it too
He should have done it before the show;)
It's fricken ultimate to be a Foo Fighters fan. They give so much to us. First the new album as a stream over the internet, and then these kind of concerts. Can't wait to see them live this summer!
The best live version of the song ever!
See you in Florence guys... can’t wait!!

It's his tune pedal it mutes the signal as his amp stays on
He's been the first to say he's a shitty guitar player... he's a drummer. So yea the fact he can do all that is crazy
Ha right, he did a pretty good job getting back and didn’t make a big deal about it 😂😊
It's basically auto pilot for him having performed this song a million times.
All while also singing…..
I love this! Suit and ties on and David, beard! Handsome. Such a good band and song.
God, love this song!
久しぶりに聴いても瞬く間に引き込まれてしまう。そして急速充電が完了する。魔法のような曲だなぁ♪
Who knew that the drummer from nirvana would turn out this great on his own.

Dave and Pat are truly like Paul and Ringo which they lost their friends throughout the years
RIP Taylor
John , Paul , George, Ringo, and Stu ?
I listen to this song every time I get on a plane
Dave if the greatest...This week all i want to listen to is FF and Austin Schoeffel

Their live shows are so good... No crazy pyromaniac stuff and just rocking out to music all day. That's what music should be.
Good eye-It's Rock-n-Roll man there are no mistakes on guitar.

Run and tell all of the angels
This could take all night

Hook me up a new revolution

We sat around laughing and watched the last one die
Now I'm looking to the sky to save me
Looking for a sign of life
Looking for something to help me burn out bright
I'm looking for a complication
Looking 'cause I'm tired of lying
Make my way back home when I learn to fly high.

It can wait one night
I'd give it all away if you give me one last try
We'll live happily ever trapped if you just save my life
Run and tell the angels that everything's alright...

Chamaram um tiozão pra tocar guitarra e não é q o cara manda bem?!
Three guitars and a wall of sound
oh! just realised the lettering on the drum and their clothes is meant to be like The Beatles
They did that cause their playing in the Ed Sullivan Theatre
This is pure Talent.
Brilliant! But what's wrong with the crowd? There not rocking!! It's the foo fighters how can they not! :-)

Can't figure out who looks more like Animal; Grohl or Hawkins
The best foo fighters.
Whoever mixed this should be promoted.
I like blasting this song
Love it. But I like to see David Grohl on the drums!!!
bass sounds awesome
2:49 wrong moove))
+Sey Koss True, but the fact that he had to tune his guitar during singing, live nationwide (0:34), got him an early bonus.
hey are you lookin for a "coomblication"? :D
give him a break, musicians are humans too. sometimes
What an exquisite piece of songwriting!
It’s so weird seeing them wear suits
And the guitars so high up
I love this song and David Grohl!

WTF is Dave tuning his guitar and performing in the same time??
Lol yeah, it was audibly out of tune in the beginning of the song, props to him, the show must go on!
