TIME Magazine Interviews: Dave Grohl

[MydirtyRat1]

I love that he's avoided the pitfalls of the music world. Its nice to hear a musician who doesn't think you have to snort coke or shoot heroin to belong in that world.

[ramonesstonesnirvana]

Deerhoof are amazing.

[ramonesstonesnirvana]

what did he say 2:46

what band did he say?!

[ThirtySixCBand]

I Know no one will see this, but HI!, we are thirty-six c, we are an alternative band that is trying to get semi-noticed, we record a live performance and it does sound mono-tone but if you can comment and tell us what we need to work on, or not

[HidingZebraTube]

ladies -_'''

[randomlimit27]

btw, VIRGINIA REPRESENT XD

[randomlimit27]

his son is so lucky. not only is he a fan of his dad, but when his friends listen to Foo Fighters or watch old Nirvana vids he gets to say "thats my dad" :)

[kiwikid2706]

@randomlimit27 dave grohl doesn't have a son.....

[randomlimit27]

@kiwikid2706 haha my badd "daughter"... i was kinda just typing in the moment

[ItzBrennan]

Gotta love this guy!

[RainInTheFace1000]

Rearry??

[theblackwaternight]

i would watch an uncut version of this

[madmax1717]

"I can get a bigger grill, wohoo" :))

[sweetfly66]

Everyone knows how cool Dave Grohl is .... so it is especially jarring to hear Courtney Love spit vile shit about him ..... i know its an unpleasant thing to bring up during a Dave love fest but still ... I had to mention it because of the absurdity of Courtney Love`s hatred of Dave Grohl

[wrighty2012]

He's just so down to Earth it's great!

[damianfootoos]

lol, someone wants to enter in the room at 4:33 hahahhaha

[MrSchulze04]

and the foo fighters came back ,stonger than ever BITCHES!

[rockinanrolln]

I love it when Dave puts his hair behind his ears like that.

Sexy.

[5963214785]

did he say Deerhoof?! I saw them live 2 weeks back XD awesome band though :)

[Alexasonn]

His KISS shoes...

[TheHouseOffice]

6:25 OMFG. He was like, getting all serious and his voice was quivery... then to avoid tensing up the mood, he turned it into a joke. <3 The perfect guy.

[grat248]

such a good guy

[paradisecircus17]

Guys! what's the first band he says he likes? at around 2:47?

[JJJinglehimmersymth]

The 2 dislikes... Clearly Courtney Love.. and her alter ego

[MrOai8]

i really hope this guy's reputation doesnt get smeared or anythin...i really hope that Dave continues to be the genuinely awesome guys we all love...

[misramful]

i want him as my dad :)

[sunnybluesky72]

He is just the coolest. Love him :)

[MaRLeEthEKiTTy]

My heart always flutters when Dave puts his hair behind his ears. <3

[zom007]

2 people effing suck.

[putriutty]

you're not the right guy to say "drugs is bad"

[hatjoe89]

Why do I have to verify age to watch this? Great interview nonetheless.

[nirvanafanas]

"I'm Brian Alexander from time dot co-"

"HI BRIAN!"

god i love this man so so much.

[rananim3]

Huge talent but I dont like the Foo Fighters music.I want to because of Dave but I just dont.

[persbol]

@rananim3 check out earlllyy foo fighter's, the newer stuff im not fond of at all

[negativewierdo]

did you notice that guy open the door at 4:34?

[oreolover8408]

@negativewierdo i was just about to type that

[negativewierdo]

@oreolover8408 lol

[myexcaliber2001]

Dave Grohl is the BEST Singer, guitar player, and drummer out there. The Foo Fighters will never die!

[devilf2]

why is is this flagged? Are those westboro baptist shitheads now trying to police youtube?

[michaellovegrove]

"so its sounds like you're saying its a see ya later" was Dave saying that at all??? no. silly interviewer...

[maalbe987]

Ladies?

[redfishradical]

Great interview with a great, truly eclectic artist. Even cooler that he's so grounded. I saw an interview a long time ago, early in his marriage. The interviewer refused to believe he wasn't a wild crazy party animal. Finally he said that for he & his wife, a wild weekend was buying tons of junk food, renting like a dozen movies & never leaving their bedroom. Anyone so detached from trying to be cool or front the right R&R attitude is the epitome of artistic integrity & anti-mtv commercialism!

[Pelleman666]

Did he say Deerhoof!?

[slinkyphil]

a true role model

[slinkyphil]

a true role model

[clonard]

Dave is one of the nicest guys in rock music. Would love to have the chance to just sit down and have a beer or two with the guy.

[redjess1206]

@clonard I don't think he drinks

[09jerkinsw]

Dave if we ever met. we'd be the best of friends i swear

[HLandEM]

@09jerkinsw i say that to myself everyday...

[kymness19x]

He called him dude lol

[CHD221185]

Dave Grohl...you are a beautiful human being.

[xxxxdeftonexxxx]

one of the most down to earth people non the less rock star

[DoMinC246]

the beeeeeer theeee beeeer... but no!

[Rainbowguitar27]

coolest guy on earth. <3

[bluedragonfly1290]

Dave Grohl. What an all around nice guy, just wow.

[andymagmusic]

pause @ 4:48

"the" face haha

[articachicken]

He made me laugh already after two seconds :P

[HORSLOVR]

ditto!!!!!!

[FindingMyF33t]

At 3:36 i could swear I saw "Rebecca Black" until i read the name again.

[anathema199201]

What was the bands name he said at 2:47 ???

[FindingMyF33t]

@anathema199201 Deerhoof

[xXBlinDXx12]

this guy definatly aint a dumbass drummer, and knows how to handle his shit.

[CSBABA]

For some reason, I'd want Dave Grohl to be my dad

[lockofthedeath]

I wish i could chill with him once...

[RachelBeatdown]

REARRY?!?!

[colepants1]

Ladies??????????? muahhh haa haa love the eyebrow raise!

[RawrGuitar1022]

[azwildcat635]

[Cheeseypiecake]

His two daughters and the luckiest girls in the world to have as cool talented and so freaking lovely as him. :')

[TheSandboxKidsGAMING]

4:48 xD awesome

[drolindepot]

Dave Grohl is probably the most normal best rocker there ever was!!!!

[GreenburgerE]

What band does he say in 2:46?

[ryan1234821]

@GreenburgerE I'm pretty sure it's Deerhoof.

[MacchuPicchu95]

lady gaga is so lucky he mentioned her

[GreenDayRocks3597]

I love Dave he seems so down to earth and nice

[musicians2011]

THE "KISS" SHOES !!!! i have the same ones

[vonwegn]

3:43

So True! :-)

[TheApple496]

i can't get over how much of a genuinely nice guy dave is. he's such a good example, and the way he puts his family first even though he's one of the most successful rock musicians of this era is just amazing. i really look up to him:)

[DefyingNoodles]

ahahah this interviewer has such a man crush. he's giggling like a fuckin little girl.

[AmandaChoin217]

3:35 is so true! Amen to that! :)

[fossilbox1991]

in his older interviews he always came off as kinda arrogant, but now he seems like a really great guy

[TheElephant79]

@fudugazi Word. And hes stays like that while being worth over 100 Mio. $. Great Dude, for sure.

[Brancocomedyshow]

Ace shoes :P

[TheWalrusisME26]

Omg his face at 4:45 XD "Ladies..."

[djoosdijk123]

whats that stuff he's drinking?

[BobbyO11717]

he is the best!

[pontikas]

Who is the band he mentions at 2:46 ?

[jmanluthy]

@pontikas I've been wondering that too, sounds something like deer hef? i have no idea

[rubencyclemusic]

i didn't blow my money on coke and hookers, I just thought "oh my god! i can have a bigger grill" LMAO

[Amotaraso]

Really awesome interview

[Evertonian01]

Two beautiful girls in the valley..

i'm fucked man

[chriss1306]

REARRY?!

[HLandEM]

how can he be one of the most talented drummer-singer-guitarist-actor and also be so kind and warm at the same time. not everyone can be like him you know. most of the people can't handle that much talent.

[Adrieene285]

Even when Dave goes serious, he's still funny lol

[joycemarco]

Dave Grohl is a big influence in my music. Glad to be part of the generation X in the 90's where rock music don't suck. And yeah I play the drums too and never into drugs.

[2932AV8]

I know I'll get some heat for this, but I have to say... I liked him more when he was the lead singer for the Bee Gees. I don't know, that's just me.

[Evan42881]

@2932AV8 lol Barry Gibb

[pandeybear123]

@2932AV8 What the hell are you talking about? He was never the lead singer of the Bee Gees.

[maalbe987]

@pandeybear123 He's joking that Dave Grohl looks a bit like Barry Gibb here.

[cj19941222]

12 days.

very specific.

[TomHallMusic]

I wish I'd had a dad like that

[YourHeroine13]

REEEEEEEARYY? :)

[nevershoutstacey]

fuck, dave grohl has to be the most down to earth guy ever.

he's pretty much my inspiration for everything i do, i swear.

[SuperPinklover1]

2007-2011- 4 years Dave. (:

[clarapazzini]

[Gnzlz707]

Wasting Light :)

[astroh19]

at first when i heard the band name...... i thought it was a band of asains

[thisnameisnttaken]

@fudugazi Took the words right out of my mouth. Great guy all around, and as I see it THE answer to EVERYTHING that is wrong with music today. New artists today can learn a LOT from him.

[Doodooma]

I couldn't understand the band he said "is amazing." If anybody has any idea, reply please?

[BarbadosSlim100]

@Doodooma

deerhoof... took me a few replays myself.

[PokadotMeProductions]

oh my god, he's too sexy ! Does anyone know if he still does drugs ?(:

[RebelliousHutterite2]

Does Dave Grohl play drums on the Foo Fighters studio albums??

[SMUGBASTARDALERT]

@RebelliousHutterite2 no, taylor hawkins plays.

[thedeadserv]

@RebelliousHutterite2 I think he jumps in at times. He had to in the beginning lol.

[PepsiSh0tproductions]

@RebelliousHutterite2 on the colour and the shape he does

[philipismeXD]

Thanks to kurt cobain i don't do drugs :3...

[thedeadserv]

@philipismeXD Thanks to my parents I don't do drugs lol.

[waleedington]

HI BRYAN!

[winnetouch]

If this guy isn't THE rock idol of the new age. If all musictians dissapear and only dave and the foo fighters remain I'd be happy. He has an amazing attitude. Not just twards rock but to music as a whole.

[sabrinamusiq]

So true about supporting your families, I love that part of his interview.

[Massigangster]

I think I just saw JESUS!!!

[gw311]

@Massigangster REEARY??

[burnsey321]

[jakers12345678]

It's so good to see so many good comments about someone who really deserves it and is just a full on nice guy!

Some kids met him at a festival while he was eating his lunch so they went and said hello, and he didn't get all up tight he actually sat and spoke with him for a while :) Awesome guy!

[TheMaxwell09]

[Bubble97s]

[TheElephant79]

[physicalgraffiti714]

"LADIES"

[RoLLWithITOasis1]

I love Dave Grohl so much. This man is such an amazing ambassador for rock. He's the perfect example of how you can have fun, but at the same time keep in touch with your family and friends, and keep your values. He proves it's possible to be in rock and be a nice, caring, warm-hearted guy. He shatters the old stereotype of having to be a twat to be successful.

Dave is an effortlessly talented musician, a great dad, and a hero for everyone - mums, dads, teens and kids.

[portnoyrules]

Hi Bryan!!

[Drummaniac12]

Deerhoof

[AlexanderHamilton201]

OVER rated...check out jack white..

[OrangeTexta]

REARRY?

[Gazelle78Sideburns]

first of all those beeps missed the 'swear' words and he said

and secondly, they're so pointless and annoying

[HumanoidThe23rd]

2 people should be slapped.

[pereiraa93]

'shit out of luck' 6:45 tenacious D ahaha

[corpsemunger]

I love how Dave's talking about being back sooner than we though - now it's early 2011 and I'm pretty sure they are done recording a new album

Foo's are the best

[cplusplusish]

@corpsemunger They are recording a new album, they will be debuing some new songs at Milton Keynes, and I'm going!

[corpsemunger]

@cplusplusish YES!!! i was so close to going - man, i was going to get the tickets for my friends aswell - they sold out so fast though.... i was literally a day off getting tickets - am so pissed.

but the Milton Keynes bowl isn't that nice of a venue + tickets were like 50 quid

i'm still super jealous!
