Dave: i ate cereals for breakfast Howard stern: is this about that guy from Nirvana???

[@AnCapone1899]

Dave: *exists* Any interviewer: Is that a Kurt Cobain reference?

[@elnomeperez397]

Esta Subtitulado well somewhat his life will always be linked to Kurt

[@dillons1193]

Pisses me off Kurt was great but so is Dave.

[@Mrsmacieks]

That pissed me off tbh

[@Xmunchiexx]

Only with Howard I've noticed. Most of them ask but don't link every single fucking thing to Kurt...

[@cosmiccomedy7394]

Yeah Howard is always pressing him about Kurt

[@tycobb8621]

Dave sneezes...was that a reference to Kurt??!?

[@Mr__Joe]

*Dave clears his throat* KURT CLEARED HIS THROAT ONCE, DID YOU LEARN THAT FROM HIM?

[@matthewkennedy7283]

AJ Roberts exists*

[@GeckoPixel]

Dave understood. He was there and a big part of it. He was part of something historic and knew how to answer the questions as humbly as possible.

[@ButtChugDoug66]

@@matthewkennedy7283 dummyass

[@ianmcpoland3071]

Dave: This is a song about a personal love relationship. Howard: *No*

[@JE41bflo]

He NAILED the end of the screaming part oh my god that’s incredible live. How does he even sing again after that😳

[@gustavoterceros2480]

They're always gonna ask him if his songs are about Kurt Cobain?

[@awilson500]

Dave has to be so sick of answering the same questions over and over.

[@renshuisman6095]

Yes

[@TaylorSwift1337]

This was 19 years ago my dear

[@daveg4236]

Gustavo Terceros I think it was a joke since that was always asked when Dave wrote first album

[@awilson500]

@@TaylorSwift1337 True, but the most recent interviews he is still being asked about kurt.

[@97Guitarrista]

WE NEED AN MTV UNPLUGGED OF FOO FIGHTERS!!

[@DoctorWho1983]

Dave looks like a pizza delivery guy here 🍕....

[@David-cu1xy]

haha said the same! didn't read your comment first

[@Misteryowl]

He was at this point.

[@zizouf17]

footos guy

[@swiftslick]

Are you saying that he isn't a pizza delivery guy? Because CPK might disagree.

[@wolfgangforex419]

Hahahaha

[@RobertSmith-zw7lf]

Dave: Hey Howard thanks for having us on the show! Howard: Was that a reference to Kurt Cobain?

[@Adam_Giocondo]

I've never heard that song acousticly before they nailed it! Especially Dave on that scream towards the end.. wow man

[@yellowzoiid]

They really did

[@nicolaevic]

4:10 gives chills wow

[@andreaudet]

Howard: “Is that piece of gum about Kurt Cobain?”

[@somebodycrackawindow]

Imagine how good of a drummer you'd have to be to be Dave Grohl's drummer.

[@chriswest2033]

Taylor is great. But DG is a fucking animal.🤟🥁

[@osmosisjones6734]

FlawLess Gamer Taylor is insane on the drums

[@GeckoPixel]

Taylor is amazing.

[@eli.8169]

FlawLess Gamer that’s tayler lautner for ya

[@NIRVANAmat]

FlawLess Gamer haha intimidating first jam session I’d imagine ;)

[@alexdefatte5202]

You can tell Dave doesn't want to dissect his music too much. Keep it a mystery and left open to interpretation. Howard's too nosey sometimes.

[@crimsonking8746]

It is a talk show after all, he's required to ask questions... that's the whole premise of "TALK" show......smh

[@alexdefatte5202]

Crimson King It's an artist thing, you wouldn't get it.

[@sgenetti77]

Or conversely, pop music like the Foos isn't all that complicated or deep, and Dave is preserving a mystique that doesn't exist. Eh? Eh?

[@DylanHutto]

@@crimsonking8746 Yeah but constantly asking if it's about Kurt and constantly digging even when you can tell Dave is over it is too much. Howard did the same exact thing when Dave played My Hero

[@RideTheLightning761]

Crimson King yeah and yet at the same time he should know his guests and know what questions to asks and which to steer away but hey it’s Howard stern so that makes it ok, right?

[@Jojo-qb5sp]

When Dave screams I smile.

[@キラキラくりくり頭]

Really wish I could scream like Dave.

[@Maldika33]

When Dave smiles I scream..

[@joesixpack6323]

I guess I'll have to sing the "fall in, fall out" part to myself

[@MattsOutrageous]

You can see Chris singing it, but I'm pretty sure his guitar and mic were literally off during this performance. He was basically not needed for 90% of it.

[@igopboytv1345]

Rip Taylor 🙏 you will be missed 🙏😥

[@jasonspeth1865]

His voice is so damn smooth. Great version

[@jeffhirata]

His voice tho. Incredible.

[@cocospops9351]

Dave is a fucking legend. What a voice.

[@anandroy8437]

Legend says that he is still chewing on that same piece of gum till date!

[@rockboy360]

He still is! Just watch any recent concert videos! He does it to keep his throat wet when singing, which is crucial for his rasp and screams.

[@namemepeter4615]

You got me there.

[@lukewilkinson8095]

Anand Roy when I saw them playing at Reading festival last year he was chewing Gum. Perhaps the legends are true

[@VentoRSK]

... and the legend's true

[@LickAlotaPuss69x]

He first started chewing that exact same piece of gum when he recorded the first album. If it's not broke...

[@alexcorll90]

Wow, new respect for Dave as a guitarist, those riffs aren't easy to play acoustic

[@jasongates6894]

One of the best things about this band is that theyve had the same lineup for over 20 years.

[@peterthirdandthebridges]

No. Dave G and Nate am sure Pete G was fired Pat S left and the rejoined Chris S was added Taylor H was added Ramee J was added They've also got a bunch of backing singers now.

[@BatMite19]

That scream was incredible!!!

[@Nilimonster]

4:18 Taylor be like..... "Dude he alright?!"

[@cimacpr7]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqDCeZaioq2Mn5Y Support the arts

[@TrustATinOwl]

Damn that was good. Dave always had solid performances on Stern

[@soursouthers]

Never thought this song could be acoustic but damn I almost like it more

[@finw-k6805]

Dave you could recite his vows in front of Howard and he’d still ask if they were about Kurt

[@RitaPortugirl]

the drummer has the "wtf am I doing here" face

[@whythree]

that's the "im coked up" face

[@reznerve]

RitaPortugirl♥ yea taylor has that constantly distraught and lost thing going on

[@Leo-hy8ct]

"the drummer" yup, it's just Taylor Hawkins, no one else

[@demarion362]

His names taylor that was earlier in the band when he was still was processing being the drummer in a drummers band

[@olabisioladunmade2830]

Yeah....Taylor kinda looks lost.

[@SukitTrabeck]

Dave has always handled the Kurt Cobain questions and references so well all through his career. That has got to be hard to do all the time.

[@JackSmith-tn5ge]

The drummer always be looking like he heard a strange noise in the dark

[@Chev987]

I was expecting those backing vocals at the end. Its my favourite thing about the song

[@gabriel_alemdoaquario]

4:14 just... How can he do that???

[@xaddicthaterx]

He sounds like a black metal vocalist lol

[@davegtown]

Goat status

[@cookiekingmaster8502]

It’s a screaming technique (not saying he’s bad he is obviously the best)

[@liamtimothy1929]

Almost every time I attempt stuff like that my voice cracks or breaks. It’s a technique thing I don’t understand it either :/

[@chunkymonkey5458]

And then return right back to a smooth clean voice

[@abeandhisbabe]

One of Dave's best screams and it's in an acoustic setting. Of course. 😂

[@williamdecker3989]

WOW, it's been almost 20 years since hearing this live, still got that freshy!!

[@ColtonBlumhagen]

1:28 Taylor looking confused af

[@trevorbye6965]

The drugs man hahah

[@blackusniggus6249]

Colton Blumhagen He’s like: why did we accept this gig?! Lol

[@Hagbergscorner]

Please tell me when he isn't looking like that.

[@whythree]

that's called being on drugs. he had an addiction before he almost died from a heroin overdose in 2001.

[@louche33]

0:00-5:28

[@DadsVSgames]

Taylor really hasnt changed much in 20 years

[@sgenetti77]

Less pills, more livin', a haircut...stopped banging Al-Anus MoreIsLess too.

[@blackusniggus6249]

DadsVSgames nope age is only a number to him Lol

[@JavierScheuermannMusic]

Longer hair and still looks like he's lost when he's drumming lol 🤟🏻

[@hinjurock]

This performance is from 20 years ago, dude.

[@stephenforbes2762]

yeah, except that he looks 20 years older now.

[@paulf9054]

Wow! That was so incredibly tight. These guys were on it. So hard to make a one shot song so clean--especially acoustic. But they nailed it here.

[@johnaristotle3736]

Rock n Roll!!! Bring back the good ole days the 90s!

[@NDemanuele1]

Wow - sounds really good acoustically!

[@6stringbass460]

Dave: *breaths* Interviewer: “ok so Kurt cobain”

[@martinharvey-olson8553]

Might be the best he's done the bridge live that i've seen, wow.

[@70nebby]

I would love to see every foo fighters interview and performance from Howard

Pure quality. Love these guys

[@jessemccann9711]

this is amazing, absolutely love it. made me so happy

[@Studdmufin111]

God damn Dave’s vocals in this sound amazing and that’s coming from someone who doesn’t love Dave’s voice on some tracks

MrCobra83 Best show ever! - if straightforward, no nonsense, pure rock and roll is your thing. They wear out the crowd, so you get your $ worth, every time. Guaranteed.

The 2000’s were a simpler time. Still complicated but compared to this mad world of today, I greatly welcome back the 2000’s
