I miss this version of the Foos. I know everybody is older now. But this show takes me back to my 20s. What a great time. Concerts are not the same anymore.
yeah takes the mystery out. By the time you by your ticket. Its on here. I was gonna go see VH. But after hearing Dave trash those awesome songs. I'll pass.
There is such a clear distinction between young Dave and old Dave. Mannerisms, singing style. He also def didn't perfect his endurance and scream yet lol
Man, would I kill for the Foo Fighters to have the original lineup again. So much raw energy and talent in these older concerts, William Goldsmith and Pat Smear always killed it
Same guitar from start to finish. Pretty fun and straight forward show. William is killing on drums. To bad we've barely see Nate. That was indeed a nice era of the band.
Do you ever look at FF and wonder how come this is the same guy who was a non vocal silent guy who used to sit in the back and play some crazy drumbeats while Kurt Cobain did the screaming???
I drove up from L.A at 2 am in the morning to catch this concert. Didn't have any hotel reservations but managed to find a place in Bruno. Great concert!
All you people shitting on William probably haven't drummed a day in your life. He did a great job covering Dave's parts in the Foo Fighters and his work in Sunny Day Real Estate is very good as well. Saying William sucks just shows a total lack of musical knowledge.
I`ve been a musician for 40 years. Played in lots of rock bands as bassist but I`m also a drummer. I can tell you, by listening to this William wasn`t the right drummer for FF. The sound on this video is brutal, as many live audio videos from the 90s was as producers saved money by using a stereo mix from the mixer. It doesn`t do William any favors but also shows how his style wasn`t right for FF. He fit SDRE very good as it was more prog rock. But FF is playing more 4-4 rock and it needs another type of drummer to sound good live.
yes...he did a good job covering his parts live . I saw them with him , twice . That being said...you and your deep musical i.q. should realize that it's one thing to learn drum parts that were laid out for you , to play live ...versus coming up with your own ideas , and being able to lay down solid tracks in the studio . I have a couple friends in the know ....who said he was a train wreck in the studio when they tried recording TCATS . Furthermore ...he wasn't fired , he was offered to keep playing with them ... his fragile ego couldn't handle it.
As a drummer, I can confirm that William Goldsmith is a solid fucking drummer, he killed it here.. the sound man obviously had him way too loud in the mix
@@bobrobert3642 Dude, he was fine and rocked it, get off you high horse, most people criticizing him just don't like the way he looks while drumming, which is superficial bullshit, it's punk/grunge rock.. the sound mix makes it sound bad Yes Taylor (Rest In Peace 🙏) was more technically precise, but William rocks it here, I wish I could've seen the early Foo, they were so raw and trying to prove themselves
Wow, this is the first time I've really gotten a proper glimpse of William Goldsmith. If anyone can't appreciate just how good his performance is, then you've absolutely no idea what you're talking about. He delivers tons of aggressive energy, while keeping all the tempos in-check and steady throughout-in front of a festival crowd, no less. If you've never been on a big stage, you likely can't understand what that requires. The drumming here is as good as any drumming performance you'll hear on any live Foo Fighters gig. And that's no disrespect to Taylor Hawkins whatsoever. R.I.P. Taylor. Taylor Hawkins inspired legions of fans, and his passing was a tragic event. But this performance from William should not be underestimated for even a second.
@@johnkyle2205 I think that's because Dave started the tune way too fast, and William is pulling it back a bit to settle into a proper groove. If you listen to the couple of breakdowns in the middle of the tune where it's just Dave, he's playing slower as well. Live songs typically have a tendency to be faster than the studio versions, but if you listen to this tune from the album, it's quite a bit slower.
@@alexyerkey3141 He's a solid drummer who does justice to Dave's drumming parts IMHO.. his sound mix is way too loud though and I don't like his snare drum
Sorry but just from the first tune you can tell his drumming is not up to par. He's never really in the pocket and the kick drum is especially bad. Almost like it's switching between swing and straight time. Taylor did not have that kind of slop and obviously neither did Dave. I get the pressure of a live performance with an audience but I've heard random local drummers with better time than this frankly. I actually enjoy William on some of the SDRE stuff but FF clearly wasn't a good fit for him. But hey if you enjoy it then more power to ya
He was an acceptably solid live drummer but flaked out in the studio. You can hear him drifting in and out of time in several places here, but it’s live so no one really notices or cares.
He’s definitely gotten better in technique and timing since this was filmed. I like the work he has done with Assertion, but yeah he’s a bit of a volatile personality and holds a hell of a grudge (justified or not) against Dave. He’ll never be back in the Foos.
@@DenEz_TV think so? That he felt threatened by him? For sure his still is much more in the line of Grohl's own style. Whereas Hawkins has a much lighter style. However, maybe he was actually looking for that change of style in the new FF material. Anyway for me personally I prefer Goldsmith over Hawkins any day.
Not sure why people are shitting on William...dude is killing it. The guitars are way more out of tune at times than anything else.
2 роки тому+4
Back then it was sort of cool to not care about guitars being out of tune. Everyone was into blues and Rolling Stones and shabby rock and roll. William is a good drummer but his style didn`t fit the band. He was used to play more prog and FF was even back then a pretty much 4-4 rock band.
He sounds like he’s struggling.. not his strong suit it shows… his work in sunny day is great, not in Foo… this coming from a drummer who’s played plenty of shows.. I know when I’m struggling on a song ! This is bad
He is a killer. People think he's a lot worse than what he's credited for, but it's possibly a genre difference. People in the replies don't really understand how William truly is, yeah Taylor is dead, rip and all, but are we really gonna put William down just like that?
Brennan Persing Lol.in case you didn't noticed... we we're all kids at some point of our lives dude. The fact that my profile pic is me as a kid, doesn't mean it's my actual age :P
At gigs, sound engineers mix for the venue, not for an album release. The fact that the mix is mainly drums and vocals says that Pat and Dave's guitars were probably way too loud and drowning out the drums. It's all about finding the right balance. Also, Goldsmiths drumming really isn't bad at all. He's literally playing the parts that Dave recorded on the record and he's doing them well. If he misses a beat, it might be because the poor cunt is playing a show every other day across the country. And especially early on in the show, you're still getting warmed up and getting the kit adjusted to your preference as, often, you'll use someone else's backline and they might have the toms/stands placed differently to how you like them. Regardless, I can't hear him fluff any fills or anything. I think he's a fucking incredible drummer, Theo B by SDRE is proof. He's not missing the fills on This Is A Call, the toms just werent high in the mix. Sound guy is clearly still getting levels and dealing with the presumably obnoxiously loud guitars.
I ONLY HEAR TOO MUCH DRUMS AND BASS :) NOT ENOUGH GUITARS AND VOCALS FROM THE FOO FIGHTERS, SOUNDS LIKE A CANNON BLASTING CHINA FOR HURTING THE TIBETANS , NO WONDER THEY NEEDED A FREE ROCK CONCERT IN 1996. LOL
You make plenty of excuses for William. I agree he's a good certainly in the pocket. But Dave knows something about drumming himself and what was needed. Please also understand Dave spent 100s of hours working with William. We have seen and heard a few ty videos. If you are insinuating that Taylor was NOT anything but a huge upgrade I'm laughing my ass off
I could do everything except the hi hats and the rack tom. I can play the high af crashes but that rack is fucking horizontal and the hats are almost as tall as he is
Brandon Noneya You shouldn’t try and sound perfectly on point in all of your concerts, especially in a band like this in the mid 90s, when grunge was thriving (a genre of imperfection)
I was at the Tibetan freedom concert in GG Park. 2 huge stages side by side. The whole crowd would move back and forth to see the bands. Also no beer sales.
Watching this, I first thought it reminded me of Bleach, but that was before Dave joined, so I guess continuation of In Utero. Cool to see him switch roles. Pat continuing on too.
@@billybutcher4995He's always been diplomatic about the situation and everything in general. He's smart enough to watch what he says in public. And anyway, if Will was so great Taylor would still be with Alanis. 😁
@@billybutcher4995 and Taylor says that Dave is a better drummer than him. Goldsmith is a great drummer, that doesn't change what happened in 97 where he couldn't play the songs right

For those who say William sucks, are probably comparing him to Taylor, which is unfair. That said, Taylor is by far a more superior drummer in terms of confidence of his instrument, nuance, and technique. “Cows” unfortunately for William makes my point. If you listen to Taylor playing “Cows” it’s night and day. William is ok as a tour drummer for FF at the time, but as we all know, the studio sessions for their follow up album exposed him and we all know what happened. He will go down with names like Scott Raynor, John Rutsey, etc
+danieljliversLXXXIX Dave actually wanted William to be touring drummer for the foo fighters. He liked him. Dave said "than I write a song, I'll know what I want the drums to sound like in my head and it's hard to match what I hear." Taylor got to play for hours be four Dave is happy. He's a perfectionist! William quit the band, Dave didn't fired him. He was feeling betrayed so he left. It would breaking him not to.

It is the best Foo's show of all time. Best songs and best drummer - William Goldsmith. I feel bad that he left the band in 1997.
Oh well he made 2 more albums with sunny day real estate which is way better then foo fighters musically

Foo Fighters live is way better with Pat Smear. Seems that he gives more energy to Dave on stage. And he’s charismatic also.
Dave really mastered his vocals after getting further away from trying to sound like nirvana.
The mix on this is fucking atrocious.
