FOO FIGHTERS. wattershed. live phoenix festival.1996

[DionH62]

0:39 something something shiftlet!

[st00pidp0ckets]

Dave Grohl lost his voice and thats why he isn't singing, he explains in an interview that for most of the tour he had to just yell everything because he couldn't sing, he lost his voice...Just in case any of you were wondering

[TheFooFighter161]

@st00pidp0ckets ya i noticed 0.o its kinda bad

[redheartbox]

best ff song

[weezerfootie]

when u can't reach the note do as davey dave does :| 1:53

[bkrpage1]

Dave looks so... different, but the same... It's really weird...

[OlympiaMusicTV]

Love Pat's face on the video.

[KanchoKomancho]

Blunt false-playing disguised as a kind of punk. I really, really love FFs but this is not their level.

[mgnewage479]

@KanchoKomancho This song wasn't taken seriously. It has absolutely no meaning, but it's kind of a tribute to Dave's favorite punk bands, like Flowerhead. You do know that Dave was a massive Punk fan, right?

[mgnewage479]

@mgnewage479 whoops, sorry....not Flowerhead. I forgot the name of the band, but it's in this song.

[massivedickweedohyea]

@mgnewage479

You mean FiREHOSE?

[KanchoKomancho]

@mgnewage479. You cannot truthfully and honestly respect/like/love somebody if you always prevent your self of criticizing that somebody. Blind following of some artist or justification-by-reflex of all the stupid career/artistic moves they make is not showing a real respect and admiration; it is like form of cult, or something. And that’s not my game. Take care

[mgnewage479]

@KanchoKomancho I'm not praising Dave Grohl. Have you ever paid attention to the lyrics? It's all random. All i'm saying is, at the time, Grohl was a fan of the hardcore punk scene. That's what influenced him the most, and this song kinda pays homage to all his favorite bands. I wasn't really defending him.

I think you forgot something called, taste. I like this song, it's sorta my kind of music, but that doesn't mean i'm gonna start praising Grohl and all his accomplishments. I'm no fanboy.

[mgnewage479]

@KanchoKomancho I don't remember saying i love every single thing Dave does, cause i don't. Take these for example...I think One By One was a boring album. I hate the music video for "Walk". In my opinion, FFs songs need more of Shiflett's work on the guitar and less of Dave's ideas. Just a few.

Trust me, i know what you mean. But i'm not a crazy FFs fanboy you assumed i was.

[12yearsafter12]

Taylor is better than William

[EyesSoundLife]

this song is exactly the same as Meatball sandwich from Joey Ramone, i swear to god its the same riff but still kickass in its own Foo Fighters way !!

[FrizAtHome]

@EyesSoundLife its just a generic punk song, theres 1000s more just like it

[discohunter12]

Wow, i've never seen the early foo fighters, more a nirvana guy, but it looks so strange seeing dave looking like he's straight out of nirvana being front man!

[ALMonkey64]

this song is sooooo underated.......

[SaucisseMerguez]

my favorite foo fighters song love this

[iangotango13]

Pat Smear is such an all-round different human being. All the way from how he looks and dresses to how he plays guitar and as a person. XP DAVE GROHL!!!!! YEAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Beamboomer]

0:55 ... so gay :P

[4evervids4u]

dave's so skinny

[smallclone]

fav foo's line up right here. 

[nathan102485]

i was 9 back in 1995 when i saw the Foos for the first time. That was my first concert and changed my life forever. I became a Foo superfan and have seen it all. No matter what they do i will always closely follow them. Even if i miss the good old days but hey nothing ever lasts forever, im excited for the new album, cause if dave say's this is the heaviest to date i believe him.

[TheHotstuff2345]

i like dave better as the drummer for nirvana

[merkyourfaceoff]

@TheHotstuff2345 no one really gives a rats ass

[TheHotstuff2345]

@merkyourfaceoff oh wow your cool cuz you can comment on my post and use the term "rats ass" really cuz THATS really mature

[merkyourfaceoff]

@TheHotstuff2345 im only 6 poopy butt face

[KingVerdo]

I really like how Pat Smear is back with the Foo.

[andygrohl08]

pat esta re duro

[mumraaaaa]

Such a great shame that such a great band have descended into middle of the road radio one mediocrity. This is awesome. See also: Biffy Clyro, Red Hot Chili Peppers,...

[dummytree]

@mumraaaaa I couldn't agree more, buddy ! :)

[gabe600]

Thats a nice SG Pat's got.

[PsychadelicElephant]

foo fighters suck I but at this time they were really great,, pat smear is azuuum

[mario1136]

Wow back then dave looked more like he did in the Nirvana days

[dshow81]

@mario1136 wow you so smart. actually it is almost the nirvana days you dumbass 1 or 2 years later.idiot.

[mario1136]

@dshow81 I know that you fucking cockhead, 1996 - 2 years after kurt died. I'm not retarded, now go smear shit in your eyes and die you braindead shit

[gabe600]

@mario1136 damn.

[mario1136]

@gabe600 piss.

[gabe600]

@mario1136 judging by the rest of your comments u should be talking.

[gabe600]

@mario1136 judging by the rest of your comments u shouldnt* be talking.

[mario1136]

@gabe600 I havent said anything wrong now shut the fuck up.

[artx922]

it`s nice that Pat is back with the foo fighters rocording their new album. and as far as iv`e heard, it seems to be pretty much awesome.

[aranclarke]

haha...i was at this festival...sat in the car for 11 hours in ques trying to get in..the whole crowd jumped for "for all the cows" lol @ pat smears casual walk 0:55 ...looks like hes window shopping for a new blouse!

[pctmh]

Pat walks around like he's costipated.

[afuckhead1]

this is kinda melvins influenced not much nut its sounds a little like them

[danicarlin]

This is so much more punk rock than the album version.

[valeo1993]

i seen the alone easy target of this concert

[UNSC14]

i don't give a fuck what anyone says, every song off every album they've ever put out has kicked ass.

[boss56245]

Pat Smear

[Zookmuh]

look how fucking high up will's hi hat is! holy god!

[TomasgeenH]

Foo Fighters Grunge : )

Only two years after Nirvana

[artx922]

love how Dave headbands at start of the song. my favorite version of the song.

[anonbeliever1]

Stick it to the Waa waaaaa! Pretty as a pwaa pwaaaa! This is when the Foos were amazing. Now they're a cheezy pop rock band you'd hear on a teen movie. Dave should stick to drumming with Them Crooked Vultures.

[derdudeisda]

@anonbeliever1 he screams this because he can't sing it he was ill when they played there he says it in an interview at the festival

[merdeuxlolz]

Nate Mendel looks so cool with this beard!

[brlog93]

i like old foo fighters!!

[ghmj95]

i luve dave without beard!

[uNdErClAsssHeRO]

HAHAHA 1:16 - 1:19 pissed at all the disc jaio, pissed about the 5-haio

[TheHedgehogss]

does nate have a beard??? weird

[SillyMusic97]

goldsmith is cool

[TheIneffableMe]

@SillyMusic97 goldsmith is golden

[Wilpunkrocker77]

Cant upload this show complete?

[andywellsey]

sorry have only got the 3 songs ive uploaded. this is all that was broadcast on TV : (

[Wilpunkrocker77]

the complete set list is: Gas Chamber • Butterflies • Winnebago • Wattershed • For All The Cows • Weenie Beenie • Big Me • My Poor Brain • This Is A Call • Up In Arms • Enough Space • Good Grief • Podunk • Alone+Easy Target • I'll Stick Around :(

[koolfraser]

@andywellsey not good enough

[thecrikster]

@andywellsey I hate it when they do that. What channel was it? I bet they have the whole show locked away in some archive. They should be putting on the prime slots rather than all the reality tv talent show crap. People would show an interest then I bet.

[thegrungeisnotdead]

pat is a fucking gay 0:56

[Wilpunkrocker77]

¿So what? Pat is a good music!

[thegrungeisnotdead]

@Wilpunkrocker77 ys he`s like much other good musicians but hes gay and bah

[thegrungeisnotdead]

yes h´s good, but hes a fucking gay ´look at him bahhhh

[bigmuffexpress]

He looks like a really punk swan, dont diss!

[SillyMusic97]

dave is a good guitarist and singer, but hes one of the best drummers in our world

[cacbice]

True....But he's the HOTTEST guitarist, HOTTEST singer...and HOTTEST drummer! ;)

[SillyMusic97]

no, thats kurt cobain :D but he too

[floater678]

this song is so good live =P

[189Maria]

this foo fighters i like!!!!!!

[jonahbooc]

hey nate mendel has a beard here! cool!

[dylanfan1969]

This drummer who i forget his name is not a good Dave aper. His style is weak like he had jazz style training.

[foo95ify]

Its William Goldsmith you fucking ass hole dylanfan1969 your a fucking faggat you ass hole

[dylanfan1969]

Hey Foo95ify, please, get a hold of yourself. I was not putting Goldsmith down. Just stating a fact. He's not the same drummer like Dave the way Taylor Hawkins is the same kind of drummer. What i meant by weak drumming is his hitting style. Haha. I'm cool.

[thecookymonster91]

personally i think goldsmith is closer to dave than hawkins he has the same raw edge whereas taylor is more a technical drummer william n dave are more hard hitters but dave still way ahead of both

[Johnyevil]

Goldsmith owns hawkins. Too bad he was given the boot, best Foo's line up.

[Grungeallaround]

No Kurt didnt reject them. Dave was afraid to ask Kurt to play his songs, which is why released "Late!". They were his songs but he kept them secret while he was in Nirvana.

[hbtd49]

This is true : ) There's another youtube video of Dave saying this. Kurt did adopt the beginning guitar riff for "Scentless Apprentice" from Dave and made it his own. I think that was the only exception though.

[felipetaioaba]

God is gay!

[Rapter57]

Pat Smear is God

[hesalumberjacknhesok]

pat is such a gimp :L

he's pretty good though..

didn't dave grohl write ALL of the music for the first album? or is that a lie i was told?

first album, easily their best album by far

[thecookymonster91]

he wrote alot of the first album during nirvana sessions whilst waiting for cobain to show up and did 99.99% of it himself

[hesalumberjacknhesok]

oh that was "pocketwatch" wasn't it? songs like marigold, that was on the heart shaped box ep, right? :L

[jhachey222]

yeah, it was mostly stuff Kurt rejected from Nirvanva, IIRC.

[thecookymonster91]

if im honest and im a huge nirvana fan some the songs of the first foos record were better than alot of nirvanas songs this weenie beenie ill stick around oh george good grief but kurt couldnt use big me for obvss reasons

[DamianRucci]

he did

[faerygyrl16]

pat smear looks so cool.=)

[golluba]

@faerygyrl16 yess thank you,so many people hate him,i love pat and am glad he's back with them!

[IDareToSpeak]

a lot of screamin

[zachpygott]

this is the foo's version of tourettes by nirvana ... short loud angry and about nothing

[betinhopupu]

Pat is great !!!!!!!! I like to stile

[KillzFrFuN]

pat is too tall and skinny he makes faces while he plays and he is horrible at guitar

[SilvR89]

pat is just UGLY!!

[KillzFrFuN]

ya this song is from when dave was still in his "nirvana" phase

[vccEXIT]

Pat really does NOT look like Barrack Obama...

[vccEXIT]

[TrazomTrakOg]

[vccEXIT]

[why2beyou]

[futurecharlie]

His voice has gone from two years of touring.

[foorockpeppers]

Classic Foo song.... !!!! LOVE IT

[worcester1976]

...was at the front that day ..GREAT GIG!! :0)

[skatte92]

sounds like a nirvana song

[UnavailablePro]

thats what i thought when i first heard this song.

[dogtemple26]

most of the foo songs from then were penned as nirvana songs, as dave started taking over the song writing for nirvana around 93/94. had nirvana stayed on this would have been a nirvana song probably

[skotty1992]

wow thats my old account

[catennisgurlie]

wow...really weird seeing Dave in shorts. lol

Love the song though [=

[jay3213]

ROFL!!! THAT GUY IN THE WHITE LOOKS LIKE BARACK OBAMA!!!!

[DeadStar90]

[jay3213]

[mamicho12]

MEDIO TEMAAAA!

[macskasegg]

Pat Smear, sorry

[macskasegg]

Why did Pat Smeat leave this band?

[rohan750]

he left to pursue other interests. And has been playing with the foo fighters as a touring guitarist since 06

[nworbmik]

The Foo Fighters kicked ass with Pat in the band. Once he left they became a lame 'Dave Grohl Show' with no stage presence. Shame. But anyway, Many Thanks for this clip!

[Zikcrawer]

Ur so right! :P i said the exactly same thing like 1 motn ago and then ppl said i was a stopd mf

[rohan750]
