  • So thrilling to see this beautiful and emotional moment for 11 year old drummer Nandy! I first saw her covering Nirvana's "In Bloom" in Fall of 2019 and teared up then witnessing her rock passion and also here. I felt this moment deserved a multi camera edit and so spend the day putting this together from several videos out there on UA-cam. (See credit list below) Hope you enjoy!

      Another professional musician here. Couldn't agree more. She killed it. Hard to process. 11 years old and not only does she understand the phrasing and dynamics but she understands her role in the band. She knows she is the center of all energy as the drummer and is able to drive the band. The band plugged right into her energy. Very out of the ordinary considering they've never played together before. Immediate chemistry. An incredibly impressive performance by Nandi.

  • @skagit58
    @skagit58 2 роки тому +305

    So my take on this event stems from my time as a drummer. We all know that Dave is a multi-millionaire, and that his musical career has put him on stage with some of the greatest musicians of all time, but my respect for Dave comes when he allows the up and coming musicians and fans to jump on stage and share a moment that they will never forget. This little girl along with many others have had the chance to rock with the Foo Fighters, and it has likely resulted with their desire to rock on throughout their lives and share the joy of music with others.
    Dave has shown that he can be humble and kind with people and help boost their careers, while at the same time laughing at himself because he knows that he has nothing to prove too anyone at this stage in his life. Rock on Dave but especially Rock On Nandi!!!!!!!!👍🌹

I'm sure her parents are proud and I'm very happy Dave was such a gentleman and great sport to make this happen. That young girl is very happy and I'm sure motivated her to continue doing what was so awesome at her young age absorbing this great day. Hell it made me feel great just watching all this. Nice! People are still good! A++++

      I remember seeing something on TV about him years ago. At the time he was living in a normal middle class neighborhood. The kind of place where houses are single story and 50 feet apart. His neighbors on one side where an older couple who knew he was a musician and knew his name was Dave but had no idea he was world famous and worth 300 million dollars. They thought he was the typical struggling musician. They were bringing him cookies and inviting him to dinner. He played right along and treated them like they were his grandparents or something. Dave is definitely different and definitely special.

As someone else said, not only has she the physical power in the arms and shoulders to execute what's in her mind but her sense of timing is impeccable. The rest of the band quickly realised she had the power to drive the whole song. Ranks as one of the most incredible talents I've ever seen.

    What I find so great about this gig of bringing fans up to the stage, is how the FFs get to share and multiply joy. Sure they play great, and the music is great, but the feeling of enjoying the concert multiplies somehow when you see another person on the stage, enjoying her/himself, full of amazement and awe. You can see it on their faces, they feel connected to the moment, and that is what they transmit. Dave sure has an intuition for the sociology of music. What an amazing band!

    As a parent of a 6 year old I noticed as Nandi stepped up onto the stage you could tell she was a little nervous, overwhelmed even. She kinda stayed away from the front of the stage and kept to the side, in front of pat. I think Dave noticed as well, and that's when he motioned for her to come over to him then went over and took her by the hand and lead her to the front of the stage. Good guy Dave being able to notice things like that and knowing how to fix it. I'm sure this concert is one neither of them will ever forget.
