Dave Grohl

The magic of Dave Grohl isn't just that he's one of rock music's great raconteurs, or one of its greatest drummers and frontmen of the last thirty-plus years. It's the sheer number of lives he's gotten to live within rock and roll. Dave started out drumming for Scream , one of DC's great, underrated hardcore bands, running in the same circles as Ian MacKaye and the Dischord crowd. Then he joined Nirvana and more than made his mark in one of the most consequential bands since the Beatles, and an indelible piece of Seattle's music story dates all the way back to Jimi Hendrix and Quincy Jones. And then, as if that weren't enough: Foo Fighters. Which Dave Grohl essentially built by himself — Prince and Stevie Wonder-style — writing and recording nearly every note on the debut alone, save for some guitar from Greg Dulli of the Afghan Whigs. On today's episode Justin Richmond sits down with Dave at the Foo Fighters' studio to talk about their twelfth album, Your Favorite Toy . But they start somewhere unexpected talking about a song from a cassette-only solo record in 1992 he made under the pseudonym "Late!"

Le 5 septembre 1994, Dave Grohl, ex-batteur de Nirvana, erre en Irlande, hanté par la mort de Kurt Cobain. Fuyant ses démons, il réalise qu’il ne pourra jamais échapper à l’ombre de son ancien leader. Grohl décide alors d’affronter le passé en créant Foo Fighters, un projet solo né des cendres de Nirvana. Peu confiant au départ, il joue tous les instruments sur un premier album discret. Sa rencontre avec le batteur Taylor Hawkins redonne souffle au groupe, mais les excès de ce dernier finissent par le mener à l’overdose. Malgré les drames, Grohl persiste. Il transforme la douleur en musique, devient chanteur, leader, et multiplie les succès. En 2022, Hawkins décède à son tour, plongeant Grohl dans un deuil profond. Pourtant, une fois encore, il se relève. Parce que Dave Grohl est, malgré les malédictions, une force inarrêtable du rock.

Dave Grohl joins Dangerous Dave on Triple M for a rare and revealing chat about Foo Fighters’ shock announcement - a one-night-only show in Launceston, Tasmania in January 2026. Grohl speaks candidly about the band’s long-running connection with Tasmania and why Australia always ends up at the centre of their plans, joking that “all roads lead to Australia.” From spontaneous studio conversations that turn into surprise tours, to the band deciding to “pop down for a gig,” Dave explains how this show came to be. He also gives fans a hilarious insight into the chaos of touring — including the time he flew back to Los Angeles between shows in Adelaide and Perth just so he could take his daughter to her school’s Daddy/Daughter Dance, before flying straight back to play a stadium.

Nach dem Tod von Kurt Cobain trauert die ganze Welt. Aber es beginnt auch ein erbitterter Streit zwischen Courtney Love und Dave Grohl. Wer darf über das Erbe der Band bestimmen? Die Ex-Frau oder der Ex-Drummer?Courtney Love und Dave Grohl waren mal Freunde. Dave hilft damals sogar ein bisschen mit, um Kurt und Courtney zu verkuppeln. Bei den Aufnahmen zu „In Utero“ kommt es aber zu einem “riesigen Krach”. Und nach dem Tod von Kurt Cobain beginnt die Schlammschlacht so richtig. Dave wirft Courtney vor, sie würde ihre Songs nicht selbst schreiben und bezeichnet sie bei einem Festival-Auftritt als „hässliche Schlampe“. Courtney ist sich hingegen bei Dave sicher: “Wenn es eine Hölle gibt, ist er auf dem Weg dorthin.” Courtneys Vorwürfe werden immer bizarrer. Dabei geht es vor allem um Geld aus dem Nirvana-Erbe. Es braucht 20 Jahre und eine feierliche Zeremonie, bis sie das Kriegsbeil begraben.

The moment you’ve all been waiting for has finally arrived. That’s right: Shred With Shifty is back, and your beloved host Chris Shiflett is kicking off season two of the podcast with a super-special episode. Shifty’s Foo Fighters shredders-in-arms Dave Grohl and Pat Smear join him for this season premier that reveals some of the magic and maneuvering behind the Foos’ triple-guitar attack. The three friends and bandmates start off with some history lessons, discussing their earliest influences and how they learned to play before covering Grohl’s early days with Nirvana, Smear’s time in the Germs, and Shiflett’s invitation to join Foo Fighters—followed promptly by a trip to a guitar store to build out his arsenal, courtesy of Grohl’s AmEx. (Plus, Dave tells how he conned his mother into buying his first distortion pedal.) The trio cover their current and historical favorite pieces of gear—like Dave’s famed Gibson Trini Lopez, Mesa Boogie's Rectifier series, and Fender's all-tube, '90s-era Tone-Master amps—before getting into how they apply those tools in the studio between three players. “I think it took 15 to 20 years to figure out the recipe of what we do,” admits Grohl. Running through tunes like “Rope,” “Hey, Johnny Park!,” “La Dee Da,” and “A Matter of Time,” Shiflett, Grohl, and Smear demonstrate the evolution of the band’s rhythmically unique and tonally tiered guitar arrangements. From Melvins-inspired drop-D slammers to delay-driven, polyrhythmic riffs, Grohl likens the band’s 6-string components to the various elements of a drum beat. Once a drummer… Tune in for tons of hilarious stories (including Grohl’s “worst tour ever”), fascinating tidbits, and Dave’s guitar-store riff when he’s trying a new axe. It might sound familiar.
