More quotes by Dave Grohl
You know why Foo Fighters have been a band for 20 years? Because I've never really told anybody what I think of them. The last thing you ever want to do is go to therapy with your band.
Dave Grohl
Don't look at the poster on your wall and think 'I could never do that.' Look at the poster on your wall and think 'I'm gonna do that!'
Dave Grohl
I don't want to say that most rock bands live these formulaic biography existences - but they kinda do. There's always a divorce. There's always an OD. There's always a bad business manager.
Dave Grohl
'In Utero' was the first time I'd made an album that reached into the dark side. I remember the conflict and the uncertainty. I remember all those things when I hear 'Pennyroyal Tea.'
Dave Grohl
When you're recording to analog tape, it captures performance and you can't necessarily manipulate that in different ways. It is what it is.
Dave Grohl
When it comes to making an album I take that very seriously. I am meticulous, overworked. That's my time to put everything under the microscope.
Dave Grohl
We're in this band, the Foo Fighters, making music for the love of music. We all came from bands that had disbanded, and we were drawn to each other because we missed playing.
Dave Grohl
I'm a skinny, geeky, high school dropout - it works, kids! Sensitive guys always get the girl. You'll get laid 10 times as much as that guy on the football team 'cause he's on steroids and he's gonna get fat.
Dave Grohl
When you're recording to tape, you usually just settle for what you have. There's not a lot of options to manipulate the performance.
Dave Grohl
I guess it was exciting that every time I pulled up to the gate of my house, I wondered if someone was going to jump out of the bush and stab me in the face.
Dave Grohl
I love being a drummer but I love being a musician in general and I love the Foo fighters.
Dave Grohl
A lot of people from my generation of music are so focused on playing things correctly or to perfection that they're stuck in that safe place.
Dave Grohl
The fact that I'm virtually deaf. Any woman who's going to date a rock musician has to be prepared to repeat herself every 10 seconds. My wife asks me where we should go for dinner and it sounds like the schoolteacher from Charlie Brown.
Dave Grohl
I'm not allergic to fashion. I'm just one of those people who when they put on a suit look like they're going to a funeral or to court.
Dave Grohl
I'm so not macho. It's crazy. My man cave is so not a man cave.
Dave Grohl
Always have the highest bar for yourself. Wake up everyday and no matter how crappy you feel, want to change something for the better. Do something that makes someone happy. Create something that inspires someone. Be someone's light when they are hopeless.
Dave Grohl
I think maybe what happened was the convenience of technology overshadowed the experience of holding an album in your hands, and sitting on your bedroom floor, and staring at a picture of John Lennon or Gene Simmons or Johnny Rotten. That tangible experience can sometimes become an even more emotional experience, because it's really happening.
Dave Grohl
Chicago gave me more music than any other city in America.
Dave Grohl
It's not until recently that I could even imagine myself as an adult. But these kids today, they look at me like I'm Neil Young. Nirvana is the band their parents listen to.
Dave Grohl
As I get older... I start to realize that life ain't half bad. Each year, I'm amazed that I'm still alive. I don't take any of this for granted, I'm a lucky dude.
