@Jayoriley its just a trick that drummers use - the drummer in my band told me

[Jayoriley]

@pacman445 Im not a drummer like but i can play drums and ive always wanted to learn how to do that, its sounds fucking brilliant!

[cman86s]

[stevob2008]

[ClearGlue1]

Holy Shit thats a huge china.

[dave1x1]

thanks for all the comments..

[jonathon842sSarah]

taylor hawkins looks like a caveman and ironically he is doing a cavemans favourite passtime, hitting things hard till something great comes out!

[priapos8]

2:38 ... my pants got a meeting with my epic-ejaculation of my life.

mindblowing deluxe!

[aostereo]

[iplaydrums18]

[TheDamaffio]

F*ck the fabricated music of today, THIS is real music

[KurdtKobain09]

taylor isn't the best drummer out there...infact dave is better.

[owlsrule143]

@fightingfoos, I just watched a video with Dave and Taylor both drumming at the same time

[owlsrule143]

Foo fighters are the best band period

[elston92]

Enough to send shivers down your spine!

[ex3vious]

foo fighters are the best mainstream band out there.

[fightingfoos]

Before I die I need to see Dave Vs. Taylor on drums. I just realized that has to occur.

[bnsf812]

a sweet mini guitar battle between Dave & Chris, then a awesome drum solo by Taylor (Taylor ovulusly won)

[TheDannyDave]

@bnsf812 nahhh, i think that chris won tbh, his solo was brilliant

[mf2kdrbombay]

Best live band you can ever see.

[kattliuss]

ooooooooo el escenarioooo!!!! lo ame!

[Lukelang21]

holy shit



[OmfgItsLeon]

Oh my god watch his hugeantic china ! xD

[intervention33]

taylor hawkins is a fucking beast on the drums

[DRUMZiMoN]

Dave grohl is a drummer and not a fuckin guitarist

[rohbit]

I love Shifty's demeanour in this video, and Taylor's got some awesome tone on his drums.

[iplaydrums18]

tylor wins

[pcbiglad]

he was starting into my hero at the very end there :D

[Jinahuya]

Dave's playing a white Firebird V with dot inlays, but what Firebird is Shifflet playing?

[HOLYGacpac]

Show him your titties that was awesome!

[bobbeefcakesuperman]

How the hell does he drum that well with his eyes shut the whole time?!

[000Z9A]

dave grohl...

all the way...

[SaddleScars]

He was using a double bass pedal.... right?

[jounin9988]

@SaddleScars no.

[SaddleScars]

@jounin9988 lol, just to be clear, i did know he was using a single pedal. I just wanted to capitalize on the awesomeness capured in this video in my seemingly naive yet mostly sarcastic ways.

[Suka00]

@SaddleScars haha, of course not!

[fretyupa]

@SaddleScars that"s what i was wondering. i've seen dave do a similar fill like that in the video of him versus taylor. whatever they are doing it sounds sick

[remixtoaremix]

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu­uuucccccccccccccccccccccckkkkk­kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kkkk

[enrique4d]

Taylor Hawkins plays like God and looks like Jesus!

[emirow]

@gamafon

dave is a great drummer but he already publicly admits that taylor is a lot better drummer than him. and indeed, taylor's technique is superior to grohl. and also this is a statement of dave: "I can pay this guy to give me drum lessons"

[iplaydrums18]

tylor wins

[illiniwac1231]

WTF how is that possible at 2:38 that was some Bonzo shit!

[petercrissisamazing]

god hes so amazing!!!!!!!!1

[gamafon]

i think dave is a better drummer than taylor

[SergioPlazaTV]

This is thing is one of the best I've ever seen. Dave and Chris are excellent guitarists but Taylor... Damn, he practically left the crowd blown away.

[RandomMan023]

0_o This is the most intense thing I've EVER SEEN!

[jovchenko]

foo fighters is the last band of the old good school

[thotink]

@jovchenko what about Queens Of The Stone Age?

[KuboZelek]

@jovchenko

Checkout White Stripes ;]

[FreakinKoolMedia]

@jovchenko just wait man, the rebels of new school are going to emerge and bring back some awesome rock!

just give it some time!

[0987Zeppos0987]

@jovchenko Agreed cause it has remnats of the old school times ;) Dave Grohl (Nirvana) and friends sharing the same ideas as he does :)

[wrscaredfox]

@jovchenko lucky you, you are sick in your head.

The Foo's are commercial like hell..

There are lots and lots of old skool bands, but MTV just don't show them on the TV anymore.

[tjittosz]

@wrscaredfox The Foo Fighters are not commercial. To name a few commercial bands: 30 seconds to Mars, Linkin' Park. And the last few years U2 joined that list too. The Foo Fighters are a band that shows after many years, after all they been through, that they still make the good music. I believe they are the best band around now.

[jovchenko]

@wrscaredfox ok... wathever

[Deepnachos]

taylor is best drummer ever!!! :D

[jovchenko]

don't you know to phil rudd or steve adler?

[Suka00]

it looks so awesome when nate calls them back at 0:55 and then the drum solo starts!

[3nt3rtainm3nt1]

drumming for foo fighters would loose you so much weight.

[ckycuntx]

Taylor is freakin WIN!!!!

[ShappyMusiks]

FUCKING AMAZING

[nina4everthebest]

*-* Fantastico...dopo hanno cantato My Hero.

[cacbice]

Hotness!

[JDrippin]

Taylor loves his gig...there are so many drummers that are so overlooked, but w/ Daves band(being an ex drummer) he incorporates alot of his songs through drum beats....

[pexbirdo]

You don't have to be able to shred or play as many noes as humanly possible in a solo to be a good guitarist. I regard people such as Brian Molko a great guitarist because he plays great rhythms and epically memorable guitar pieces without worrying about a massive solo in every song - that's why I play like him.

[nirvanaspirit666]

the foo fighters arent about shredding and being the absolute best, they are more concerned with writing the awesome songs they write like times like these

and monkey wrench

[anonymous11228]

anybody ever notice at shows that dave and taylor drum very well and have huge teeth, and always have wet soppy hair!? I LOVE IT

[elvesarepeopletoo]

Foos are an awesome band but they're both average enough guitarists. Foos aren't really known for shredding the fuck out of guitars anyway. Hawkins is sick on drums though.

[RMNTNayn]

I don't think they need to be very good. The writing they do is fine, so they don't need much flair.

[elvesarepeopletoo]

I agree. They are a very artistic band. They don't need awesome shredding.

[Makkajakka]

LOL!!! Taylor is the Animal!!!

[thotink]

hawkins reminds me of animal from the muppets

[Canadian8tor]

I thought the same thing when I saw another dave grohl vs taylor hawkins vid!

[thotink]

dude i wish like at the end of like a huge solo or something he like waited for the crowd to like cheer n shit n then he'd go "ANIMAL!!!!" hahahaha

[zackattack94]

@thotink thats keith moon

[DLSully1218]

@thotink do you mean keith moon? cuz thats who animal was based on

[thotink]

@DLSully1218 sure, if thats the way you wanna take it.

[rufusboy21]

this was before they played my hero at hyde park

[petercackett]

2.05 Girl about to get owned by cup

[abjafriggitywhoo]

lmfao epic observation of the week

[Xula1313]

your observation..... 6/5 Stars

[arog4750]

nice

[kevinheartwell91]

haha, hawkins is all hair and teeth :D:D

[ascortjkk]

and beard

[janooo91]

WHAAAAAAA nice :D :P

[gurillazz]

that was P.H fat

[munkyrench]

he uses a single kick. its just fast triplets baically. u can here the single kick behind it then he keeps the time with the hi hat. its all played on the toms, snare, and kick. couldn't tell ya what order though

[letshakehands]

can anyoen tell what drums he is hitting and what order at 2:40 is it just super fast triplets or has he got a double kick?

[PaulWall84]

definitely single, his left foot is doing the hi hat, kinda hard to hear though. although i have seen taylor do some double bass work too, he's no slouch! :P

[steelundergrounder]

look as mike patton says dave grohl is one of the most phenomenal drummers of all time.i'm not a huge fan of the foo fighters but thats not the point.i think dave does these drum offs with taylor so taylor can look better and he can have an excuse to sing wouldn't it be a bit arrogant if he completely destroyed taylor i think dave is a great musician i just think he is a much better drummer.

[jobapi01]

where do your sentences start and end lol.

[TaylorHawkinsGirl]

Taylor wins!

[Vinster511]

Taylor won that HANDS DOWN!!!! I have the DVD

[jerrymelgoza13]

DRUMS DRUMS DRUMS!!!!!!!!

[blackbolt123456789]

is dave grohl better at guitar or drums??

[AHillFL]

thats just a matter of perspective but drums in my opinion

[Slayerben3]

Drums, definitely.

[bigyt68]

Everything, He's better at everything.

[blackbolt123456789]

lol, ya he sure is a talented musician. But what about harmonica? hmmm... or oboe

[majpest102]

proabley drums

[steelundergrounder]

drums

[laladoll1]

holy shit

[MattkNT]

i love to see if dave grohl and krist novoselic reunion for one show..

[bendinggreenvans]

with mark lanegan on vocals and Slash on guitar :)

[TheSourDieselToad]

that would be awesome

[07SayOcean]

he looks like Jesus in here. .

[crappyname95]

isnt it weired how taylor hawkins looks so much like kurt cobain?

[Slayerben3]

I just figured out that this is pretty much the same riffs and drum solo from Wembley. rofl.

[XxFooFightinxX]

me too - i was like this sounds familiar! mas!

[Slayerben3]

They did something like this at Wembley. It was pretty sweet. Only difference was that it was a Guitar duel that led into Taylor's drum solo. haha.

[TEAMEEXTREME]

i think i speak for everyone when i say its a draw lol

[steveak93]

Lol. Your funny...

[TheMessiahofMetal]

I'm dead serious. My drummer is a fucking prodigy. By the time he graduates high school, he'll be the next Portnoy. No joke dude.

[einbischen]

Wow the best solo in the history of the universe. I can't believe they played like that and the drumming solo was all like drums and stuff, awesome better than any drummer ever.

[2563130]

And hawkins wins it by a nose!
