- Dave Grohl and Barrett Jones listen to the segment of the 1994 radio program "new music show" with Damon Stewart on KISW Seattle, where Barrett plays the new demo of Dave's that doesn't have a name yet. The song is "I'll stick Around" and was recorded just weeks before. Dave explains how this radio program helped start the Foo Fighters ball rolling.
Thanks to:

and everyone at S.A.M
The first Foo Fighters record is still my favorite.
Agreed
Metalheart333 Agreed
Vad Wanuu agreed
It was grunge, of course
Totally Agreed
Well if anything, Dave made true on the promise of Sticking around.
God bless him for it.
RastaSaiyaman run? ill stick around
He could off himself like everyone who were part of the grunge scene, you never know
Now that we've seen this happen multiple times and look back at their music and behavior, it is guaranteed Dave is happy and has no reason to think of doing anything like that. HUGE difference in personalities and behavior. THANK GOD!!!
I love current Foo Fighter music, but there was something really special to me about the early years. The songs were more simple, and Grohl at his pop purity.
And fresh out of Nirvana and the early 90's grunge scene
As Dave wrote those songs during the Nirvana era I guess he pretty much had that Nirvana formula still in mind. It wasn't about complexity, it was about writting punk but also melodic simple riffs that made you want to start breaking shit. There was something beautiful about that simplicity. Just a good riff, a kickass drumline and weird lyrics...
Some of the chords in this song aren't very simple though, especially the verses!
february stars
Awesome comment!!! At his Pop purity is perfect. The 3 min pop formula all hooks lol lil verses ala Cheap Trick etc master's of American Pop n the formula. Shit stays in ur head forever. He is a huge Springsteen and the E Street Band especially my fave The River album..album #5 Springsteen 11 outtakes Pop masterpieces plus the cuts from the album all the Pop...Cheap Trick n Raspberries American Pop. Bruce was tryin for the 3 min gem. Dave loves that Lp as well as me. Stevie Van Zandt the genius producer n Pop Godfather behind the best they ever dropped!
I can't get enough of this behind the scenes stuff.
i second that!!!!
That first album is an absolute masterpiece. The sound is raw and direct, grungy but very different from Nirvana. He never tried to copy Kurt's songwriting or cash in on the grunge movement. Now we take everything for granted, and he's 'Dave Grohl', but back then he was 'the guy from Nirvana', which now sounds weird, like it's another person.
THE record that inspired me to play the drums. Still listen to this record regularly.
25 years later and still a banger. dave makes evergreen hits.
This has always been my favorite Foo song. Hands down.
Their first album is the only album I like of them honestly.
SN2903 duude check out wasting light
SN2930 Varmando God I thought i was the only one,we should start a club :p
First album was the best. Second album also great.
Johnny Macalvee I agree with you there.
Something about Dave playing all the instruments is so much more focused. I love the early stuff.
The journey of Dave and the foo fighters is so fascinating. Producing songs in the beginning that are STILL popular to exploring to own their identity, many styles,, zero ego, total humility,.....yet no matter the style, can identify authentic Foo Fighters every time. Real music never dies
Still remember hearing this song for the first time, while walking around in Australia, and immediately buying it. The final passage where's he's shout-singing "I'll stick around" still gives me shivers. Though I couldn't figure out what he was saying and eventually settled on "Optical realm!"
"Tomorrow, make my bed"
This is still his best song. Aren't many people who can play every instrument, let alone after backing the hugest band on earth.
he went from doing it himself to having 3 guitar players
Watching Dave listen as if hes hearing it outloud for the 1st time while remembering what he felt when he wrote it suddenly overtaken by memories sad and happy
Dave is so talented...someone oughta give that kid a chance...
That’s why this is their best song: that riff throughout the entirety of the song. Makes you wonder how Dave imagines his songs up. Great work.
I always liked the bass line in this.
It is the coolest to see Dave Grohl enjoying his early compositions. I LOVE these vignettes. Thanks so much for sharing!🤩🤩🥰🥰🥰
I remember when I heard about this project on MTV news before it came out and I cried tears of joy as 11 yr old or 12 yr old mourning the loss of Nirvana and Bush was big at the time and there was just this void. When the album dropped I was just a kid with no money and my cousin copped it knowing I had to have it. I traded my Jerry Stachouse jersey for it clearly ripping my self off for it. Don’t regret it. Did the same for the Colour and The Shape. Lol. Only it was an amp I didn’t use.
Jerry Stackhouse? Well he showed promise in his first seasons but never became a big time player.
Zonum1 well at that time we didn’t know that lol. Hindsight gives me me better deal
I got In Utero in 2017 just as my junior year of highschool came to a close. Bought it with the money for one of my first paychecks. Such an unbelievably rough, raw and LOUD album. Then I heard months later that Dave Grohl the drummer dude with long hair actually had his own band, and I was like... WTF is this shit? Kurt dies and he forms another band? But then I actually listened to Everlong and let’s just say since then I loved Dave’s work and the Foo’s and ive got such a deeper appreciation for music now
because of it
@@BoxOfCurryos So which do you like better, Nirvana or Foo Fighters?
Zonum1 depends on my mood. Most days I will listen to Foo’s since they are more upbeat, and positive. Nirvana can be really depressing sometimes. I listen to them when I’m down and out. So it really depends.
It’s genuinely hard to say because i value both bands equally. However on a enjoyment basis, i enjoy foo fighters more often, because I’m not a emo, angsty, depressed teenager anymore. I also don’t romanticize Cobain’s suicide anymore, and I can see him for the man he was. A troubled artist, who made some bad choices, but ultimately touched perhaps a billion people’s lives. Dave on the other hand is a hard working, down to earth musican who’s message and vibe is always about dealing with grief and then moving on from the pain. It’s a really hard question to answer.
But hands down.... In Utero is my favorite album of all time. No any album any band puts out, it will never come close to beating that album.
20 years ago and this song still holds up! I was lucky enough to see them perform this live in New Orleans a few years ago. What a great band.
love these gems, would love to see you produce them again. Thank you Barrett
Thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaank You Barret!!!!!!!
I'll second the other comment would love to see more tunes produced by you Barrett & Dave. There's something about Dave's songs when it's only his paint strokes on the canvas
that would've been cool to just have randomly heard on the radio at the time. exciting.
Sunday nights on KISW in the early-to-mid- ‘90’s was different for mainstream Seattle radio.
I didn't hear this, but I remember my Mom driving me in the car listening to KROQ Los angeles, and the DJ made a special announcement that the music they were about the play was the first stuff released from any nirvana member since Kurt's death. I then heard the opening notes to "this is a call". It was awesome, but all the music on the radio in 1993/94/95 was awesome. All the music then had a weird, darkness about it. All I can say is that it fit the times. The times themselves were weird, and dark.
They have many great songs. And of all Foo Fighters songs, I’ll Stick Around is the best. This song kicks so much ass. It gives me that pain in my throat that you get when you are transported to earlier days when you hear it. It gets pretty tedious in the studio and when you play the same thing over and over it can drive you nuts. But that’s why these knuckleheads are still together. They compromise and sacrifice for each other. And they push forward through all the heartache. And with that, we get to hear some of the best rock n roll anyone will ever get to hear.
This song fucking rocks
This was a great watch. Shows how he works.
I’ve never said I was a “hardcore” FF fan, but always respected the hell out of em. And moreso Dave. For coming out of what he went through after Nirvana, to be able to make a masterpiece like this...
🤘😊🤘
Wow this is really great Barrett....I just love it
2:35 dave has probably flashbacks from those days. sheesh
Whoa thanks Barrett! Awesome footage.
That radio show host, little did he know what he was playing or the rarity of it. Maybe the first radio play of Foo???
Ryan Robertson it was most definitely the first radio play for a song that became a foo song.
One of my favorites
God I love being in Seattle!
Was not a fan of Nirvana. But I saw this on MTV and I was instantly a fan of Foo Fighters.
I remember buying this album in Rota Spain fall of 1995..
I really like this song. Good job, Dave. Thanks for continuing to let new music out. You really play well.
Too bad I love this deep cut. XOXO
I love this songgggg!!!
I remember listening to this album when I was in 8th grade, it was one of the few albums I could listen to the whole way through. I have fond memories playing on PS1 when it first came out with this going on my stereo.
Now this is just an opinion.. But Dave Grohl and the Foo Fighters might just be the best all around band out there.
Definitely one of my favorite bands, and I love Nirvana too.
It is a great opinion
Best what? Best rock band? Maybe. Probably between them and Queens of the Stone Age as far as bands that are still around go. I'm partial to Ween, too. They aren't as active in the studio anymore as far as I know, though.
I saw the first tour supporting Mike Watt. The band was fierce on that first record.
All Grohl baby
Wow gold
Thank you!
Please Barrett, release all this demos, I want Slackers Password, Hooker and all these demos!!
Damn!! Solid!! Great album!!!
As simple as this... JUST A GREAT ALBUM! Period!
Dave i love you❤❤❤❤
I was listening to KISW that day !!!
Y cry 😭😭😭 wonderfull years my life!!! My years of adolecent
Like if you love Dave!
Its a Jewel album of the 90s
Cool!
Here is our page on this session - www.foofighterslive.com/sessions/dave-grohl-laundry-room-studio-summer-1994-26
FooFightersLive.com Summer 94? Damn I thought Dave said he stayed away from music for like 7 or 8 months after Kurts death, I guess not.
The closest thing we have to a 4th Nirvana studio album
Release this! It sounds better than the original mix
Look up "I'll Stick Around 1994 demo"
imagine Nirvana with Dave songs ,I mean Kurt and Dave and Krist and Pat , wooooow such a talented together
thats pretty much the real end of Nirvana, that thought there. Thats the last thing Kurt wanted.
“Marigold” B-side
Like this if you're like me watching this 30 years after the album came out.
Sounds mastered better then the actual album.
Ive always felt the actual album was poorly mixed. Its very muffled.
Michael Langley Honestly I feel like the muddled sound adds to the charm of the first record. I would still love to hear a remaster.
Yeah the rawness is what appeals to me the most, there's very little between the song and your ears to embellish on it or make it overly complicated which shows off the songwriting better for me.
Oaf Lodge Dave has gone overboard in trying to make FF records sound overly clean and slick. Nevermind, from his Nirvana days, was the inspiration, but Dave has taken it way too far.
@@medinacarlitos2002 The whole of the pre mixed album does exist in bootleg form.
Hey cool channel!
I've heard that most musicians don't like hearing their own voices. I noticed Dave seemed to be rocking out to the music and the moment his singing started he seemed to cool out. Only speculation on my part.😉🤘
Some don’t but “lead singer syndrome” is real and the love themselves for it and like to hear them sing. Me personally don’t like my recorded speaking voice but like my singing voice.
@@mumbles215 LSD is real, my friend, and since I don’t have it i usually stay in the background and just play my instrument and hide in the harmonies. two things: 1: in the past i did not like my singing voice; now it’s my favorite. 2: i’ve never liked my speaking voice but over time i’ve come to accept it and now i’m ok with it. it helps that i know someone who loves my speaking voice, so i guess it’s not so bad … ☮️❤️
such a good fucking song
Nice people.
4:17 dude!!! Sounds like Kurt!!!
If Kurt didn't die the songs Dave wrote would have probably popped up on the next couple albums by Nirvana. Crazy to imagine Kurt singing them
*since Kurt died, he gave his power to Dave*
@@heyyo6979 I think maybe they would have collaborated somehow, but Kurt would have kept Nirvana as his own thing.
@@heyyo6979 Not because Kurt had plans to separate the band But in a hypothetical case it can be
To those who say it sounds like Nirvana: try to listen to Dain Bramage and Scream in which Dave Grohl was growing up as a musician. Debut album has nothing to do with Nirvana, it's much more fullfilled with life and inner positive energy. The two bands listed above had much more influence on what Grohl played in this record. Kurt doesn't stay close to Dave in terms of melodic complexity imho.
Almost 30 now
Gee, I can't imagine why they cut this
How can they hear each other over the I’ll stick around?
I like this better then the final album version
Interesting that this video length is 6:06…
mega
Can someone PLEASE trace and post a recording of this version? I think everyone would really like to hear a higher quality version of this (fucking top tier) version of this song.
5:19 DJ: “And we don’t know the song title but it’s just a symbol - a Zildjian cymbal actually. (laughs).” Grohl: “What the fuck is that?” 🤔 C’mon Dave! You should get this! It’s a dated joke referencing Prince - who started using an unpronounceable symbol in 1993 for his moniker (aka The Artist formerly known as Prince) as a protest against his record company. Dave covered “Darling Nikki” and Prince covered “Best of You” at the 2007 Super Bowl! Dave should get this 20 year old joke! 😂
But it never really did fade did it Dave...maybe a teeny bit I'm sure
This first record is amazing but I wish they would remaster it and turn up the bass. The songs would sound so much more powerful.
what brand is the small grey mixer we see in the video??
I wonder if the DJ meant "symbol" like Prince - "artist formerly known as..."
That coronavirus looking thing in the music video was definitely courtney love 🤣
Love Dave's what the fuck is he talking about face 😂
This video is 6:06 minutes long. Nice
Dave finally admitted this song is about Courtney Love.
Bahahaha! Dave at @5:23
when the time of the video is 6:06 hahaha
Dave who's gonna put the rains on you noone!
Wish there was more of this sort of thing. I really wanted to like it but I found a lot of the more biographical parts about musicians from each town kind of boring compared to the stuff with the Foos in studio and that sort of thing.
does he ever get tired of the compliments?
at 4:20..... bidding war
DG: It. Started. With. *That* . Guy!
*Damon Stewart*
DS: 99.9 FM KISW The New Music Show...And brand new song from Dave Grohl. From Nirvana.
B That is a fact.
DS: And we dont know the song title is.....
5:14
DG: *Yeah. It started with that guy.*
DS: Theres more here....
What is the background music at the beginning of the video? specifically 0:38
Sorry, but I have no idea. It was something the radio station had
Laundry Room Studio damn. sounds absolutely killer though :/
This is 93...94?...wtf...really...in 94 you still were the drummer of Nirvana...remember that small band?
and wow... I mean.. .Is 1994!!! the year kurt died... maybe he sort of blocked in his mind that year?
@@alfredhitchcockpresents9318 Well yeah. Usually when people go through tough times like Dave in all of 1994, they'll usually try their best to forget it to make themselves feel better
That Tascam 38 in the background is pure junk. interesting to see that they have one of those
I’ve made a lot of great recordings on that machine, including all the Dave demos, the Nirvana songs, and the presidents of the United States of America songs. It was a solid and well built machine for what it was and way better than other 8 tracks of the era.
@@laundryroomstudio cool. For the 8 tracks 1/2" the Tascam 48, 58 and TSR8s were better. But the 38 was the most common. I still have a couple of TSR8s up and running. They sound great i agree, but the transport was very cheap
probly has bad memories of this time. poor guy
First two albums are awesome but not really feeling any past that personally
Song sounds the same
Gage23 is the same Song that appears on first album
Gage23 .....its a small world when coincidences appear..like when you see your sons name and jersey number ...
It is before it was mastered on the debut album.
Its a song to Courtney love and how he knows the truth and how it's going to be a great big giant mess when it eventually comes to light and how he has put up with her pawns or minions I like to call them in the music industry and he survived and how he had no hand in her plan and he dont owe her anything .... And after everything he will still be rocking because he will stick around long after she's gone
Joseph Atnip wow. I bet you had a lot of imaginary friends as a kid 😂
When what comes to light? His feud with Courtney is well documented, and they have grown up, made up, and moved on with their lives.
Just read the lyrics, the song is about two, kind of three, things: 1. his feud over rights to Nirvana stuff. 2. Her career elevation tactics: 2A) The over-the-top grieving, something he didn't wish to do himself, and believed it was an act to gain sympathy and elevate her career. And 2B) His accusation that her association with Nirvana was simply to elevate her own career. There's another part of the song, that it he's sure they'd get over it in time - and as mentioned before, they did.
I know what he meant when he said "that one is called Cymbal, zildjian cymbal" it's because most of the song Dave rode that crash... Still not a very nice thing to say, he was trying to undermine the song. not cool
WTF? Why would I be "trying to undermine the song" while promoting it on a radio station and talking about how great Dave is? what a stupid thing to say. Dave was the one who drawn a SYMBOL for the song title at the time, like Prince changed his name to a symbol, and I was just making a joke about the Zildjian thing, and could care less about him "riding the crash".
@@laundryroomstudio I didn't know it was you Barrett speaking, I thought it was the host of the show LOL... in that case I retract my statement.. Since you recorded and you are close to Dave, you can say that.. I thought it was the DJ who was saying that in a sarcastic way... My bad. lol
Funny that he's still referred to as "Dave Grohl from Nirvana" buy this guy....Foo fughters is a way better band than Nirvana ever was by a mile.
This is terribly edited
The songs about Courtney Love the dead soul of a woman and in the video had a disease ball floating around which was meant to be her.I was the first in my area to have this cassette before it came out and i still got it and listen to it in my truck cassette player today
What would Dave advise his younger self from 1994 if he had a chance.
Hurry up!!!!
