[GrohlStatus]

Dave had a sweet flannel. :D

[khromis]

shows how much influence JPJ had in led zeppelin.... because this sounds like led zeppelin

[modernlover0rosalyn]

@khromis duh...they prolly worship the guy. (wouldn't you?) that being said, if you have the WHOLE album, IMO I hear a little bit of all their bands....very queens, zep heavy yes but I def hear foos melodic stuff too

[khromis]

@modernlover0rosalyn i was speaking of this song only not the " whole album" . also i dont understand what the "DUH" thing is about ... you must be a 3rd grader

[modernlover0rosalyn]

@khromis LMAO U must be havin a bad day and feel the pathetic need to lash out at someone u dont even know online.If I'm 13, I'm gonna assume you are a jerk easily bc your main problem is I said DUH?ITS ON FUCKIN LINE lol not a godamn paper I'm turning into you to critique.And u didn't say jus this song so am I really wrong to assume that u didn't mean all of their music?Ugh! DUH! Hnnng! lol I will not do the stupid youtube back and forth with you bc I have a life. U have a nice one 2 k :)

[khromis]

@modernlover0rosalyn RAGE MUCH? mr. i need to reply with an entire paragraph .... lul

[modernlover0rosalyn]

@khromis No rage here,I just think its funny how corny u are,have fun jerking yourself off lol :)

[khromis]

@modernlover0rosalyn you know whats really funny?... thats how a 3rd grader would respond.

[modernlover0rosalyn]

@khromis that's how a 100 year old would respond. Still so corny and not funny at all, this is getting really pathetic...

did you not get my message sweetheart? you want to go back and forth message me otherwise stop this foolishness, its just a youtube vid, get over it. Still so off topic, I mean you appear to have no interest in TCV's just arguing...pathetic.

[STRANGEJAMES85]

Josh Homie in duh hood bee-yatch!

[lufc550]

Josh Hommee made me laugh so much

[DarkAngelEU]

Nirvana will be available for bar mitsva's and weddings, please call us if you're interested.. funniest thing said bout Nirvana EVER

[05832409]

2:47 BEST stoner face ever!!!!

[rasenshuriken198]

jonathan woss show

[minglemonkey]

Grohlgasm!!

[CarpeMexen]

Did he say what song they where gonna play? I missed it anyway, so what song did they play?

[1hermans1]

@CarpeMexen Mind Eraser No Chaser

[CarpeMexen]

@1hermans1 Thanks!!

[metaller8]

Actually Dave, you were supposed to play Lithium haha.

[joker9279]

@metaller8 AND the dude said childrens parties and barmitfas 

[jesperjnielsen]

Actually Nirvana were available for childrens birthdays parties and bar mitzvahs but not weddings :)

[jabre12]

@jesperjnielsen classic bill hicks joke actually ;p

[snakemanl]

can't stand this band...it's as if Grohl felt as if he owed something to Josh and decided, hey I'll give him one more chance a stardom...nehhh he is still a crap frontman and always will be. When Grohl sings back ups it's like...come on just sing the whole song and give Josh a break!

[astheends]

@snakemanl Woah i could disagree anymore, Grohl loves projects, hes on everything and anything.

[POMF2K]

@snakemanl

blasphemy!

Maybe dave is tired of making the same pop crap. I was a huge fan in the nineties but that band has is a totally stadium pop now. can't say that about queens. grohl is way better as a drummer.

[Fjarne]

@snakemanl Comparing Dave Grohl with Josh Homme isn't even possible, it's pathetic. Josh Homme is a musical genius, always finding new sounds. He can not only play his instruments but he can create music. While on the other hand Dave grohl always has his mainstream sounds, same old shit all the time. Josh Homme is legendary.

[danaownsall]

@Fjarne shut ur mouth and watch the fucking video u homosexual

[rorighscott]

@Fjarne amen to that. never heard such bliss. Josh is a scientific genius of discovering weird and wonderful riffs.

[MRM0J0RISIN777]

wock and woll YeaH !

[comitatensis]

did he say; "them crooky vultures!"?

[rogirl3]

its soo funny how when dave was in Nirvana he barely said a word in interviews and now he talks and talks and talks...but I could listen to his voice for daysss lol

[porkbeast3000]

i fucking love dave grohl

[PopeWithDaScope]

They should have played new fang.

[PopeWithDaScope]

I love it how jpj and josh are so stationary and then there's Dave at the back having an epileptic fit.

[VibeJunkies]

I think Alain should defenately be included to the real band, not only the live band. But that's just me ofcourse. Annyway I love TCV, their music, their style..For ever in love with TCV.

[theachtungtree]

both can blow jpj's "··%&

[cruehead0]

mindblowing......

[cruehead0]

i think its not underrated to have to play with legends like that....

[Maroj94]

John Paul Jones > Legend

Them Crooked Vultures > Best album of 2009

[racerid]

Actually, back in 1991, the song that Nirvana was scheduled to play was Lithium and not Smells Like Teen Spirit like Dave stated. And what Ross said right after the smashed gear act and guitar feedback, was something like "... they're also available for children birthday parties and barbecues", not wedding parties. =D

[DisposableHeroes0]

@racerid What he ACTUALLY said was 'children's parties and barmitzvahs'. You have been out-pendatic'd, or something...

[spankythedog56]

@racerid

well, if you think about it, i doubt he looks up videos of himself, especially of nirvana times. so the last time he saw that video was probably soon after the show in 91. probably difficult to remember exact wording or even the song from almost 20 years ago lol

[ChalicoKiks008]

Lol, in 91 when nirvana played in his show

So many years after

Nirvana is available for weddings hahah

[hemilover52]

im glad dave is on drums and not singing. i just think he is much better at that and homme is a better singer/songwriter

[mack629b]

anyone know if alain just doesn't want to do the interviews? Or are they hidding him away like the first bong you bought when you still lived at your parents?

[bitka]

Who is this fourth man?

[RockOnKennedy]

Alain Johannes

[xzyanid]

lool. look at at jpj reaction when jonathan says pink floyd

[MISTIKOROCK]

i love that telecaster

[cdozier777]

alain johannes is very underrated, low key guy killer guitar player

[ubanare]

@cdozier777

Is Alain Johannes the guy playing with TCV there?

Is he also the guy that plays with Jack Black?

I actually researched this and couldnt find answers...

[XXsteviegfunkXX]

@ubanare He is the the guy playing next to them, He plays all the live shows with them, he played for Queens as well. No, he isn't the Kyle Gass who plays with Jack Black, he just looks similar.

[guitarman2793]

@ubanare nah thats kyle gass.

[MIKEiTECH]

@cdozier777 Haha, QOTSA is anything but low key in the right circles.

[keeelane]

@cdozier777 whoops, mistook him for chris goss...

[SamBTBass]

haha i love how everyone laughs at the thought of NDubz

[Shreds1620]

I am down to my last 300 dollars in the bank and I happily plunked down 63 dollars for their Denver show. It's gonna be sick. BTW I also love Gordon Ramsay...cool as shit they were on the same taping.

[Jogirl6]

Oh, how I love Josh. Saw them Crooked Vultures a couple of weeks ago - epic.

[GuitarJonnie]

Ahhhh.. I can't beleive I never saw this... This made my day. Love it! (:

[CyberZak619]

Dave on "the Mary-Jane" at 7 years old xD

[kingpin8393]

is that rhythm guitarist the guitarist from Eagles of Death Metal? (Not Jesse)

[LeGrandFromage93]

no that's Alain Johannes, I think the guy in EoDM is Dave Catching

[kingpin8393]

thanks

[Wibergot]

Thats alain johannes. was guitarist in a band called Eleven

[kingpin8393]

thanks

[john0785]

yea and toured with QOTSA back in the day. talented guy

[bluerivald]

The guy that thinks pear jam is better than nirvana smokes pole

[belfour2000]

hey man that's the asshole that pissed of nirvana way back when! they were supposed to due one song but since he was a little shit they did the less commercial territorial pissings! check it out it's hilarious

[5wmh37]

Led Zeppelin greatest rock band ever

QOTSA greatest rock band to come along in a long time

Nirvana amazing band that got rid of all that hair metal shit

how could this not be anything but god-like?

[theachtungtree]

and then came pearl jam to give the middle finger & reign as the best rock act (also live) currently...outdoing....making diverse music between records...raping & absolutely destroying mtv bands...including nirvana & qotsa...but of course nobody touches led zeppelin...its a fact ;)

[punkpunkkid]

haven't josh gotten kinda fat:P seriously, but hey, he fucking rocks, no doubt about it.

[thehaeg]

just sick how good those guys are... dave josh and john are definitely top class with their instruments... :)

[HG200]

great!

[Son7Sam666]

Is Alain Johannes always just a bit part player with TCV?

[itsadeepburn]

god dammit, dave grohl just gets music man. i cant stand how much sense he makes of it.

[djcorbijn]

I really like the music this band has made too. If that makes me a daft prick then you sir a goddamn snoggin & shagging pick fucking whore. Pull that stiff upper lip out from over your forehead and maybe you can smell your own shit.

[djcorbijn]

I would have to agree that QOTSA are in the same league as NIN. Not the same music but on the same level. Both bands are beyond great and if you think they suck go write something better than they can. Put you money where your mouth is. First time I went to NIN concert I was 18 back in '89 and I still love what they do. NIN's first album was out for a year before anyone started to play them in the clubs or radio and they had to tour twice on that album. Gratefully I went to the first one.

[chleague08]

Why are there people arguing in the comment section?

Can you not just watch the video and enjoy it?!

[sususegar]

do those guys by the piano sing like that in every episode? they looked kinda gay without a chick to sing with them!

[threshers1234]

They are called 3 puffs on a piano, they are supposed to look gay :) and yeah they are on every episode

[xAfroxSpectaculox]

@sususegar they are gay, it's their "thing" lol the're called Four Poof's and a Piano so you know...

[sususegar]

let's not forget the melvins, for creativity or pushing boundaries too.

[CyberZak619]

"3 of the most talented men in wock" made me giggle a little bit. Bless Jonathan though, he tries his best. Great interview and song :)

[Mrpantymelt]

Good video

[TheeFooBaby]

The world's last hope for great rock music(besides the Foo's) is in Them Crooked Vultures.

[XXjConXX]

what about QOTSA?

[papasaun01]

yeah definitely

I love the Vultures, but both Foo Fighters and the Vultures have a long way to go to equal QOTSA

best and most significant band (not just rock band) on earth at the moment

[threshers1234]

...No

[papasaun01]

Not saying I don't love the Foo's man, but QOTSA is as deep as it gets, I'm sure Dave Grohl would agree. Mark Lanegan certainly does :)

[threshers1234]

They are not the deepest, most significant band on earth. Nothing to do with Foo Fighters. You are being naive just because you like them.

[papasaun01]

lol then please explain who is :D

don't worry i'll wait you angry little munchkin (hopefully not that crap you posted on your channel) :)

[threshers1234]

I'm not going to bother arguing with you, you are clearly too young to have a constructive argument, and to understand how ridiculous your point is.

[papasaun01]

Don't be so self-righteous, it's not very constructive either :) . It's not hard to understand the concept that music is not a competition and it's simply a matter of taste. QOTSA takes this concept, bends it over, and gives it a good 300 thrusts in the asshole. It's like saying people are people, blacks are not any better at boxing than whites. Well we all know that's false (selective breeding anyone?), so I guess in retrospect QOTSA are to rock what blacks are to sports. Drink that in

[threshers1234]

That was the most hypocritical post i've ever seen.

'It's not hard to understand the concept that music is not a competition and it's simply a matter of taste. '

I agree that music is a matter of opinion, and that is what I am trying to say to you.

But then you go on still to say QOTSA is the best band in the world. QOTSA is great, and you can like them, but when you say they are the best, most deep and significant band in the world, you are making out as if your opinion is fact.

[papasaun01]

Clearly you have no sense of history. In the early 1960's there was nothing more important happening in music than The Beatles. There's no opinion about that, it's just a fact. Take that concept and apply it to the present day. Name another group of musicians that are pushing the boundaries like this. You can't, because that creativity is almost a long lost thing. Hell look at the video you posted, I've heard a million shitty punk songs like that before. It's not easy to be creative obviously :)

[threshers1234]

The Beatles are a part of pop culture, which has nothing to do with everything having to like them. They made alot of successful albums and are proficient musicians. Queens have reached no such fame or acclaim, yet.

You like Queens of the Stone Age, and so do I, but lots of people don't. Just a matter of opinion, you are naive to think that they have made an impact as large as The Beatles though.

[papasaun01]

Lol acclaim and fame are a complete non-issue. Didn't Creed reach the status you're talking about? The music is what counts, and while no one can ever make as big an impact as The Beatles you can't name another band today that is pushing the boundaries like this. Hell maybe there is... You seem to know everything, let me know what I'm missing out on.

And yes if you write something like that and don't have the awareness to say this is garbage, then your opinion does count for less, sorry :)

[threshers1234]

You seem to know all of the answers, why don't you relish in them.

I was happy to have a constructive argument, but all you keep doing is being arrogant in your views, and telling a 17 year old his old material is crap, not cool dude.

[papasaun01]

Makes sense, you're in the 17 year old all informed, all knowing, repeating what my english teacher said yesterday phase. Wouldn't know a constructive argument if I smacked you in the face with one. Don't worry it's just a phase, maybe you can write a song about it.

You're the prick for posting something like that on YouTube, it's called clutter. I mean have have some common sense man. Next you're gonna tell me you worship the sugar plumb fairy god lol :)

[threshers1234]

You're either a massive cunt, or a kid.

Go flex your e-muscle somewhere else hard man. It's really sad when people have to exert their extra testosterone on the internet. Get a girlfriend, beat her up.

All I was saying is it's naive to say someone is the best band in the world. Nine Inch Nails I would say are in the same league as QOTSA.

Just grow up dude, if you want to have a civilized discussion, go for it, but don't just start personally slating me.

[cleppy1]

you are quite the twat

[threshers1234]

Talking about my two year old music material doesn't really back up your point also, it just makes you seem like a prick.

[threshers1234]

Which makes you self-righteous.

[TheeFooBaby]

Yes! And Taylor Hawkins & the Coattail Riders.

[thelawya]

now you see the telecaster is pimp again here

[shinjoist]

john paul jones touching a KORG Kaossilator...ohh shittt!

[ryac]

Is that Dave Catching or Alain Johannes next to Josh i can't tell?

[xEglex]

alain

[thelawya]

reminds me of Goss

[FoozzyTheCarManiac]

alain he plays with them heaps

[corkskrewclubhouse93]

homey? its Homme you wanker

[jacko12bbb]

actually its pronounced hommy, he says so himself, but he does often play around with it

[MRM0J0RISIN777]

@jacko12bbb ryhmes with mommy as he says

[iehe]

@jacko12bbb I didn't know it was pronounced that way, I thought it was "houm"...just like "home"

[fabryjavier]

@iehe yeh, i thought same

[offdutyjie]

FUCKEN AMAZING!

"Mind ERASA!! NO CHASA!!"

Fucken.. Man.. Blow out!

[P0cketfull0fsunshine]

Is it "Homey or Homme?!"

Ross you total munter. When I think of all the questions I could have asked these guys and he doesn't even know who Josh is.

[jacko12bbb]

its hommy

[MRM0J0RISIN777]

@P0cketfull0fsunshine  as JPJ says it a little thing called research, lucky Josh isnt as angry as he used to be lol

[charlesmanson100]

such a perfect band!

[foofighters4eav]

cannot wait 2 c them live XD
