A lot of people are promoting records that are just throw-it-agains t-the-wall-see- if-it-sticks meaningless bullshit. Everybody has the responsibility to do the right thing and promote artists that mean something.

More quotes by Dave Grohl
Music will never go away, and I will never stop making music it's just what capacity or what arena you decide to do it.
Dave Grohl
I think musicians like me are drawn to those older desks, not just because they're legend and lore but also because they do something really specific that is hard to emulate or re-create digitally.
Dave Grohl
It's nice when people are happy to hear that you're still alive, rather than feeling like Oh, finally he's dead?
Dave Grohl
Develop that individuality by working as hard as you can at what you love.
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.
Dave Grohl
I'm obsessed with Led Zeppelin and have been since I was a teenager
Dave Grohl
No one has any faith in the tape anymore - everyone just relies on computers and considers the hardrive to be the safest option, and I don't. I think an analog tape is something you can hold.
Dave Grohl
I think the producers or whoever's doing the show are tripping so hard. They must be on acid. They live in this, like, weird grass mound and there's this 'sun' in the sky with this little baby's face that's just, like, bleaaargh-aarghagh. It's just so totally insane. It's such an acid thing, man. For kids!
Dave Grohl
With this record [The Colour and the Shape], I started taking the lyrics more seriously. This is a very personal album.
Dave Grohl
To me the most important thing is getting into a studio and making an album that is 12 or 14 amazing songs, getting up onstage, and making people happy by livening the rock.
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
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 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
What's the last thing a drummer says in a band? 'Hey guys, why don't we try one of my songs?'
Dave Grohl
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.
Dave Grohl
There weren't a lot of career opportunities in crazy-fast hardcore punk, so you didn't have a lot of ambition, just the love and passion to play music with your friends.
Dave Grohl
I know a lot of people who wouldn't be comfortable with everything that comes with being in a band as big as Nirvana. The thing that I don't understand is not appreciating that simple gift of being able to play music.
Dave Grohl
I stopped doing drugs when I was 20. I was finished with drugs before Nirvana even started.
Dave Grohl
My whole life, I have listened to people like Neil Young, or Crosby, Stills & Nash, and artists that have made a career out of the mellow, folky, acoustic dynamic.
Dave Grohl
Neil Young is my hero. You know what that guy has been doing for the past 40 years? Making music. That's what that guy does.
