OK, another one... it's good to see VH on the horny and happy side of life. This should make some of you miserable fucks feel better.

Mushroom agrees. The Cure was a miserable band anyways.
I have to agree with the assessment of Journey & Poison being "sad & horny". But U2 being sad & angry?? Yeah, they had a few angry songs in the 80s, but the only really sad song was "Tomorrow", which was literally Bono singing about his mother's funeral, which would understandably be sad. Black Flag as angry & happy?? Sure, I guess... definitely angry. They had the sense of humor on some songs like "TV Party"
Grohl is becoming the musical equivalent of Ryan Seacrest or Dwayne Johnson.
Tired of seeing Grohl show up everywhere.
I don't watch TV but tired of Seacrest.
Two Dwayne Johnson movies a year is one too many.
Let someone else work!
Writing In All Proper Case Takes Extra Time, Is Confusing To Read, And Is Completely Pointless.
Dwayne Johnson's "Young Rock" TV series just got cancelled, so he'll probably have time for at least three movies a year now.
Maybe I’m living under old shedded tree bark, so I don’t get the David Grohl over-exposure assertions. Right now I see too much Beyoncé, Meghan the horse, and Lezzo.
Well there's no motivation to be the Big Guy in rock anymore. Streaming is boring shit. You need some wildman DJ pimping you and a prudish society to rebel against. Society is a freak show. What's there to rebel against? Being a rebel now is being a num or a missionary.
No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!
Giving Dave Grohl a swift kick in the ass, knocking him down and pissing all over him is rock and roll.
Stupid fuckin' pussy Kurt Cobain. He should have shot Grohl, too!
Someone should put a wood chipper on the edge of the stage and give Sammy Hagar a shove.
His lame fans can enjoy having Sam sprayed all over them.
All I know is I heard a stellar review for the new album, but haven't heard more than one song so IDK...
Safe, generic, bland, trad rock. Foo Fighters music is so white its practically transparent. As far as David "Yellow Teeth" Grohl, his whole media whoring and self-aggrandizing has grown stale. I for one can't think of one Foo Fighters tune that is worth remembering much less listening to but that hasn't impeded Grohl to carry on like he does as if he some sort of self-appointed ambassador of music.
It's perfect! How much to rent one?
I'm not the biggest fan of the Foos by any means. But I seriously don't get the hate. Grohl is sort of vilified for being a decent guy, maybe he should shit on his fans more and he'd be a god around here!
I mean, there is definitely a lot of filler, but One-by-One is a great album (especially in 24ch DVD Audio mix, something the Van Halen boys never would have let happened!). The title track is about hating your cheating ex-wife so much you perform cunnilingus on every pussy in your radius attached to a decent looking girl. Not exactly Macthbox-20 fare FFS...
Grohl's/Foo Fighters latest release is an (according to various music critics) "deeply reflective album" which features tracks that deal with the recent loss of their drummer and Dave Grohl's mother.
One of the tracks has Grohl harmonizing with his daughter.
Several different reviews all suspiciously say it's the best album since the band's second and harkens back to the first two Foo albums.
I hope it has at least one track where Grohl mumbles the verses then yells the chorus really loud...what? All the tracks feature this?
Doubtless it will be a success.
Here you go. My latest contribution to this fantastic thread. Dave has evolved to true dad rocker stardom. Now learn a little more about Dave...
"I meet people and I can tell in two seconds whether they’re a rocker or not": Across 40 years playing music, here are 10 life lessons Dave Grohl has learned
https://www.loudersound.com/features...ons-dave-grohl
The best rock music makes you want to smash shit up
"A big rock 'n' roll moment for me as a teenager was going to see AC/DC's Let There Be Rock movie. That was the first time I heard music that made me want to break shit. There was four people in the audience, me and my friend Larry Hinkle and two people smoking weed in the back. After the first number in that movie, that was maybe the first moment where I really felt like a punk. I just wanted to tear that movie theatre to shreds."
There are only two types of people in this world - rockers and non-rockers
"I meet people and I can tell in two seconds whether they’re a rocker or not. It’s like, ‘Have you ever broken into a car? How many times have you been in jail? How many hits of acid have you taken? Okay, you’re allowed to be in a rock band.’ When you look someone in the eye they’re either an outlaw or they’re not."
Drugs aren't for everyone
"My drug career was limited to heavy hallucinogenics and mountains of weed. I never did coke, I never did heroin, I didn’t fucking need speed… But also, in Virginia, none of us had any fucking money to buy drugs anyway. It was like ‘How am I gonna get high?’ You got any lighter fluid? Okay, put that on a fucking rag…', that kind of shit. Even if we could have afforded heroin I can’t imagine us affording the fucking needles."
Fronting a band isn't for everyone either
"Never in my life had I ever considered becoming the front man of a band: I was perfectly comfortable being the drummer and I didn’t ever aspire to being the person out front in the spotlight. But when the Foo Fighters started I realised I’d been thrown into that position and it was incredibly uncomfortable for me: I might be something of a jackass in real life, and love to be the life of the party, but the responsibility of being someone larger than life seemed too much for me."
It's okay not to love everyone
"I don’t consider myself a loner, but it’s just not important to me to be everyone’s best friend. Maybe it’s a kind of defence mechanism. I’m a horrible fucking pen pal, I never answer my phone, I would much rather stay at home and hang out with my daughters and mother and wife than go out to a bar on a Friday night."
Don't believe everything you read
"It’s nice to be called The Nicest Man In Rock. But it’s funny to me because the guys in my band would probably tell you otherwise. Certain things make my claws come out, and turn me from the trademark ‘Nicest Guy In Rock’ to a fucking very difficult person. Because I do have borders and boundaries. There’s certain things where I’m like, Man, don’t even fucking go there. I have no problem walking up to a paparazzi and saying, Are you fucking kidding me?"
Everyone looks like a cock sometime
"There was one Foo Fighters gig we played in New Zealand where I jumped up on the drum riser to rock out with Taylor [Hawkins] and I caught my foot in a lighting cable, and I fucking smacked so hard into the stage, face first, that I cracked my guitar in half. The concert was probably 118 decibels, but you can hear the roar of laughter above the PA. Not cool.”
'Cool' is a relative concept
"My version of being cool is probably different to other people’s versions of being cool. I have my own heroes and my own version of bad ass. Being ‘cool’ in suburban Virginia was like how big of a bong hit you could take. It didn’t matter what hair cut you had, or what car you had, or what pants you had on, but if you could burn a whole bowl in one bong hit, you were fucking cool."
Real men wear their hearts on their sleeves
"I got the two red, tribal symbols on my arms when I started playing drums with Queens Of The Stone Age, and at the time I didn’t think too much about it. But I think I had these tattoos done because I was getting my arms back. There’s a reason why I’m here, and it’s not my voice, it’s because these arms taught themselves how to play drums by listening to punk rock albums and Led Zeppelin. And so in a way it’s like I have these tattoos as a way to say ‘Don’t forget what you’re here to do!’"
The future is unwritten
"I can't even imagine where to go from here. Like, honestly, with all the things I've accomplished on my own and with different bands... it's overwhelming sometimes. I never thought any of this was possible."

The real star was Taylor Hawkins. He was the guy people liked. Dave is an attention whore who has shot his load and is now a limp dry fuck.
Theres more substance in my dog's farts than Dave Grohl's philosophies.
I think because I pretty much ignored all new music after seeing their first tour about 1995 and then rediscovered them a few years back I'm way more sympathetic to the Foo thing than most people around here.
That said I was massively fucking relieved when their gig here sold out so fast in less than an hour that my family weren't able to hit me for $600 to watch them in a stadium next year.
How can you argue against the ridiculous prices of this stuff when they are selling 50 000 tickets in 20 minutes?
Or the bots are buying them for resale. Or corporations are getting first dibs on them. My nephew works for Capital One. They had 16 tickets in the 4th row at Ford Field for Taylor swift. How did they get those? He told me they have them in every city she plays in. 16 tickets in a row. He was offered $10k a seat for them. Had to take a bunch of middle aged cunt customers that wanted to plaster themselves all over FaceBook being 4th row at the show.
I never liked the Foo Fighters. I've never seen the Foo Fighters. I'll never like the Foo Fighters. I'll never see the Foo Fighters.
