When you have kids, you see life through different eyes. You feel love more deeply and are maybe a little more compassionate. It's inevitable that that would make its way into your songwriting.

Develop that individuality by working as hard as you can at what you love.

For every Foo Fighters record, we've had two or three beautiful, acoustic-based songs, but they never usually make their way to the record, because we want to make rock records.
Dave Grohl

The most important thing for me is my family, and my health and happiness, and making sure everyone's cool.
Dave Grohl
Image
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

What we feel most comfortable doing is playing loud, screaming rock songs.

All I really had was a suitcase and my drums. So I took them up to Seattle and hoped it would work.

What's the last thing a drummer says in a band? 'Hey guys, why don't we try one of my songs?'
Dave Grohl

'Some Kind Of Monster' is such a nightmare for any musician to watch because you're watching a band be honest to each other. Not a good idea, man!
Dave Grohl

When I joined Nirvana, I was the fifth or sixth drummer - I don't know if they'd ever had a drummer they were totally happy with. And they were strangers. There was never much of a deeper connection outside of the music.

Image
I dropped out of high school and I couldn't go to college 'cause I wasn't smart enough, so I'd resigned myself to loading trucks and playing punk rock on the weekends.
Dave Grohl
Image
Wow, I get to wake up again? Ok. You have to make good with what you've got.
Dave Grohl
Image
There's something about pulling out a real tape from a shelf and looking at it and knowing that 'Everlong' is on it, or 'Best of You' is on it, and it's really special.
Dave Grohl
Image
I'm not into albums that are meant to sound perfect.
Dave Grohl
Image
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
Image
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

There's nothing better than having a bottle of beer in your hand in the waves.
Dave Grohl
Image
If it weren't for the Beatles, I would not be a musician.
Dave Grohl
Image
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
Image
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.

I love to play music. So why endanger that with something like drugs?
