I have a photo of myself and Dave Grohl on my wall. Ran into him at a music store in Springfield, VA in 1996. I was playing an electric drum kit. I stopped momentarily and heard a guy say "Those things are pretty cool." I look up and it's fucking Dave Grohl standing there talking to me!!! He was so damn cool. He chatted with me and my brothers for a few. And he took MY drumsticks, sat down and played the fucking drums, RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME WITH MY FUCKING STICKS!!!!!!!!!! One of the coolest moments of my life.

Dave Grohl once broke his leg while playing a show, like the first or second song, had his band play some covers while he went to the hospital to get some treatment, went back to the venue about an hour after he broke his leg and then finished the set that was like 2 hours long while a medic helped to keep the leg stabilized. He is an absolute legend and the very definition of a rock star, but he's also super humble and down to earth from what I've seen in interviews and such. The rest of the band are also legends but Dave definitely is the front man. RIP to Taylor Hawkins.

As far as I’m aware he didn’t go to the hospital mid-set. I believe he went backstage and the medic put on like an aircast or brace to stabilize it, then he came back out to finish the show while the medic held his ankle in a stable position for the entire rest of the set. They reunited a few years after the event on a talk show I think. Either way, they’re both badasses in their own respects. Dave for finishing the show with a broken ankle, and the medic for holding his foot stable for the entire thing so that no more damage was done.

I've never heard of radio rock. In the 80s the goal for more pop oriented bands was to sell out arenas so the term "arena rock" was invented. Bands like Bon Jovi fit this description. Foo Fighters continues in this vein but the real genre of these bands is just Hard Rock. They continue the tradition of pop oriented hard rock music like AC/DC, Aerosmith and Bon Jovi just with 90s/00s flavor.

"Radio rock" - Dude, the appropriate term is Alt-rock. I don't know if they were ever truly thought of as Grunge; I feel like that label is only there because people saw them as sort of a successor to Nirvana. Definitely grunge-adjacent at least, though.

He has a fantastic singing voice too. The man had endless energy

I was hoping you'd get to the Foos at some point. They have been my favorite band for nearly 30 years. Theirs was the first concert I ever went to as a teenager and my first mosh pit and crowd surfing experience. And I'm not white! 😆Seeing them live is incredible and you should definitely go for it. Of course it won't ever be the same without their drummer Taylor but I'm so happy to see them touring again with Josh Freese and can't wait to see them again. As far as genre goes I'd say they are the definition of hard rock, post grunge born out of 90's alternative music which the lead singer Dave Grohl helped usher in as the drummer of Nirvana. Their catalog is huge but some definite songs to eventually follow this up with would be "All My Life" "Monkey Wrench" "I'll Stick Around" "Run" "My Hero" "Everlong" "Something From Nothing" "Rope" "Best of You" and "Times Like These" That list gives you a wide spread along their history of albums. Looking forward to the next one you give a try to.

I do love seeing someone getting into FF for the first time, it's just so satisfying. The best part is that FF is never derivative. Does Grohl have the best vocals or talent on the guitar or drums? No, but it's a sum of all parts that makes FF legendary. I liked FF for a long time, but never considered myself a fan until i read about Grohl many years later and got to understand who he was as a man. Seriously, read into him some and you'll have a whole different level of respect for who he is. He's been through a lot, but has spent a huge part of his professional career making sure other musicians don't have to struggle like he did. And while I don't have kids myself, reading about how god damned great he is as a father is so good. He won't take shit from others, especially when it affects his kids.

Cal Jam ‘18. One of my top concert experiences of all time. Foo Fighters headlined and played most of the hits from their discography in reverse order. Left the stage and did some backstage video interaction with the crowd. Chris Noveselic steps into the frame and the audience LOST IT. They came back out and played six Nirvana songs as the encore. I looked around and everyone my age (41 at the time) was 😭

I Happened to come across one of your vids while watching reactions of Falling in Reverse and saw you reacted to a lot of the older early to mid 90s grunge/alternative rock and ended up watching almost all of them. I gotta say. Your reactions are fire. I like seeing people get hyped over a medium that expresses so many different themes and emotions. I'll be sure to sub and see whatever else you have cooking up. I would be interested to see you react to Miracle by A Day to Remember considering your stated likes in previous vids. Keep doing what you do!

Dave Grohl is one of my favorite musicians because he still fully embraces what it means to be a musician. It comes out in their performances and Foo Fighters is still one of the best concerts I've been to just because they really make the shows about the crowd experience rather than it being about themselves. The got on stage and were 11 songs deep before they even said anything. Dude just likes to rock out and play and it's just a richer experience because of it.

hiiiighly recommend listening to Hero by Foo Fighters because it's literally about Nirvana and Kurt Cobain's untimely death that then led the members of Nirvana to create the Foo Fighters and Hero is in honor of him. it's beautiful.

"Friend of a Friend" is his only song about Kurt Cobain that I'm aware of. I don't think he thought of him as a hero. But "Hero" is indeed an amazing song.

It's not about Kurt. Unfortunately people associate everything to Nirvana or Kurt Kobain but as mentioned before Friend of a Friend is the only song Dave has ever admited that has anything to do with Kurt.

Their music is rock. It’s accessible. It’s a drummer’s band with roots in punk, grunge, and the Beatles. Their concerts are awesome. Lots of singing along and dancing/bouncing. I saw them in May, and even though they’re recovering from the death of their drummer, Taylor, and Dave’s mom, they put on a phenomenal show. My voice was gone by the end of it.
