There's a reason why the Foo Fighters don't blast out Nirvana songs every night: because we have a lot of respect for them. You know, that's hallowed ground. We have to be careful. We have to tread lightly. We have talked about it before, but the opportunity hasn't really come up, or it just hasn't felt right.
Dave GrohlThere's a band in a garage right now writing songs for an album that will do the same thing 'Nevermind' did some 20 years ago. We don't know who and where, but it will f***ing happen again. All it takes is for that storm to break.
Dave GrohlMusic 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 GrohlYou look up to your heroes and you shouldn't be intimidated by them; you should be inspired by them.
Dave GrohlNever lose faith in real rock and roll music. Never lose faith in that. You might have to look a little harder, but it's always going to be there.
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 GrohlI'm happy that I have my family, and I'm happy that I had Virginia, where I grew up, to retreat to any time I felt overwhelmed. Whenever there were times when I felt like the rug was being pulled out from under me and I was floating in this crazy space, I would stop and go back to that neighborhood and realize nothing's changed, really.
