Dave Grohl

[@58lespaul]

Nope. What’d he say?

Same. Never knew he performed at the White House. Cool to read about all the emotions/thoughts he was going through prior to his performance and then seeing this. Absolutely crushed it!

[@cryptechblues]

God the balls it took to do that with McCartney less than ten feet away. I can't even imagine.

[@DunmoresMovieMania]

With McCartney ten feet away and the president staring you in the face!

[@schu1324]

also with the dude's band, hahaha

[@tracyvallandingham5941]

I mean it's literally his job. At the beginning of the video he even noted that he has played every arena, club, venue in the area. He's also Dave Grohl.... I get your sentiment, but for him I don't think it took a lot of balls or nerves to get him up there.

[@DunmoresMovieMania]

@@schu1324 -- That was actually the easiest part, because he KNOWS that THEY won't fuck up; if anything, they'll hold him up if he does little mistakes...

Who knew being a drummer in a grunge band would bring you to this

[@jameseichinger7262]

From all accounts, Cobain did. I can't remember the interview or source, but I remember Cobain liking Grohl because he had musical aspirations beyond just joining Nirvana as their latest drummer.

[@cocoluco54]

He's a legend !!!!

[@khermann63]

Dave Grohl is very talented, and an all around humble, grateful nice guy. He’s got this real sincere, down to Earth way about himself. I’ve never been to a Foo Fighters live show, but all you need to do is watch any of tens/hundreds of their live concert videos and that personality comes right to the surface. For the concert goer, I could imagine him saying to the whole band, “guys these folks paid a lot of good, hard earned money to see us tonight, let’s give them every penny’s worth, ...with interest!”

[@dukabear2640]

Met him just after he'd joined Nirvana - guy is a fucking legend x

[@sukto13]

Karl Hermann he broke his leg once at a concert and came back to finish the set💪🏾

[@tonydegregorio4895]

The older i get, the more i see the genius of Dave Grohl.

[@goalie2998]

Tony DeGregorio When the foo fighters first came out, I thought Dave was an obsessive control freak. He basically recorded all the tracks solo, and let the band play live. Which i couldnt understand. But Its all about creative control. and being obsessive. Fast forward quite a few years, and Ive come around.

[@andreyrocha1618]

the same here, bro!

[@kiekko673]

Tony DeGregorio The older I get, the more I see the genius of Paul Mccartney.

[@FirstLast-cf4mi]

The older you get, the more you relate to the FAILness of Dave Grohl.

[@allen6924]

WOW...You know Dave is talented but damn... This is the best cover of "band on the run" ever. He killed it as usual.

Dave is spookily good!!!

[@ROOKTABULA]

It likely helps playing with Macca's band.

You know you’re killing it when you’ve got Stevie Wonder groovin right along with you!

[@rogers68vette81]

Well I got to see Paul and wings over American in 1978 at the cow palace in san fran $ I paid $15.00 for two tickets

[@SadChimchar]

I was impressed by the way his guitarist played the slide guitar licks at the end. It's hard to pull off on a regular guitar but he did it convincingly

[@thesismercado5673]

Aishik Roy it was "Rusty Anderson "💕❤️💕

[@noseloquedigo92514]

sound like the original album? wtf this version is more like foo fighters cover, even guitar roles are played as in the ff cover. some arrangements are like the cover, and most of the little groove feel changes are like in the cover, not as they are presented in the album. this sound better, paul's band sound better than the original recordings.

[@lorenzopinto7948]

@@rogers68vette81 ...and did you regret...? 😉

[@LancePeterman]

I came back to watch this performance again because Dave talks about it in his book, The Storyteller. Highly recommend getting the audiobook, because Dave narrates it and I can only imagine it would completely ruin reading it manually. We're the same age and have some similar experiences and I just love his spirit and attitude in life. Fan forever.

[@briankennedy1192]

Me too with the book man just to think he nailed who are you and the speech 2 years earlier.

[@mrpbody7646]

Just finished his book "the storyteller" and it confirms Dave is as humble and down to earth as he seems.

[@jhaylward]

Haha,,, so it’s not just me?! 😆👍

[@azile21]

Yes! It's the only way to really "read" the book. I truly felt immersed in his world.

[@tassymccormick]

Yes. Normally I would opt for the old fashioned way of reading it, but the way he narrates it is so much better of an experience than I would have had reading it on the pages.

[@Neutrh]

Stevie Wonder is really impressed with Paul McCartneys vocal range on this one

Amen.

[@cnilecnile6748]

He is. Dave, , Krist Novoselic, and Courtney Love drove halfway across Dallas during the last Nirvana tour just to show up for my band's soundcheck, talked to us for a little while, until they had to leave to get back to the arena. All 3 of them were very nice, very respectful, and very supportive. He's EARNED his place in music history.

When that acoustic guitar kicks in for the third part, chills every time. Dave's voice nails that part too.

Funny how it started to sound like a foo fighters song half way through

[@haythamkenway1817]

I know right?!?

[@Poy687]

I think that’s why Dave likes it so much, the foo fighters studio recording of it sounds a lot like some of their earlier stuff

[@dinnerwithgreedo]

They actually covered it. Check it out!

[@randyjordan5521]

McCartney was writing songs that sounded like the Foo Fighters before any of the Foo Fighters were born.

[@kekwayblaze3176]

The original has three different bridges and it seems like three songs wrapped into one

[@gigisdad]

Dave's voice has such a great mix of melody and gravel.

[@AussieMysteries]

There's a lot of people that dont realise, if it wasn't for the Beatles, we wouldn't have a lot of the musicians we have today. Kudos for Dave Grohl keeping it alive!

[@huggybear3156]

I'm not a massive Foo Fighters fan but I do really like Dave Grohl as a person and obviously this performance was effing greeeeeat.

[@MichaelMacer]

Dave absolutely nails this song. And Paul's band are as amazing as ever. Love the fact Paul's had the same line up of brilliant musicians all these years.

[@GravityBoy72]

They are a great band!!! Saw them all in Hyde Park 2010. Best concert ever.

[@Brandonarchambault]

After reading David’s book Storyteller, watching this performance, and reassessing the entirety of the Foo Fighters’ music catalogue, I’ve come to the realization that Dave Grohl is a God and legend in the rock world and his genius, which is currently underrated, will likely be recognized to the fullest extent years from now long after he’s done playing music. Not many other artists have had a career like Dave’s. He’s given us so many classics. Not to mention that he single-handedly recorded the entirety of FF’s first album within a year from Kurt’s passing, playing every instrument on the album and wasn’t pretentious enough to go in as a “solo artist”. Fucking cool.

[@wadesorchids7219]

Who says Dave will EVER stop playing music. I think it’s as much a part of him as his heart beating.

[@1atomicblond1]

Didn't know it before, but the more I watch Dave Grohl, the more I respect the guy. The dude can really lay it down. 👍🎵🎶

[@Macygal]

Have always been a 70’s rock fan and I love love music so have to find some new bands I like (all my favs are dying), recently discovered Foo Fighters, Pearl Jam and Nirvana. They aren’t spring chickens, but much younger than Dylan. First I had heard about him was when he was playing the Bee Gees for Westboro Baptist Church in Kansas City outside one of their concerts in the back of a truck.

[@shutupskids]

Now, THIS is a cover.

[@supersonicsroots]

It's only half so a cover cause it's McCartney band.

[@geospectrum]

This is a great song, tempo changes, key changes, a great bridge, mood and feeling. It’s got it all.

[@deweypug]

Wow, Dave Grohl kills it here!!

[@scottym9778]

You could tell Grohl was way more comfortable when the song picked up tempo.

[@corbindallas18]

The life this man has led as a musician (in 1 lifetime, so far) is beyond comprehension.

[@animal1439]

You should check out his biography that he just released about a month ago, such a good read! And he goes into detail about this performance as well as his time in Nirvana and Scream.

[@eddiechavez8022]

Are we talking about Paul or Dave, could go either way.

[@nezbit8989]

Now then, Dave definitely delivered those powerful vocals of a young McCartney with all due respect! Hair dancing and power/skill full performanc👌 the drummer is just fantastic 👌
