  • Brandi Carlile posted on her instagram a cryptic message about busking at the Pike Place Market. "see you soon fish" she said! Less than 25 minutes later they were playing in front of the iconic Flying Fish. I work in the market and felt unbelievably lucky to have been right there while they setup and got to see all 4 songs. Dave
    Grohl stepped into the audience, totally incognito (you can see him at the beginning of the first song to my left) for Brandi and the Twin's first 2 songs. I managed to get all 4 songs except the end of the first song on video, enjoy! I'm still pinching myself! After it was over there were maybe 150 people who had gathered, they took selfies with so many people and then left.
    You can also see Brandi's mom as well as their kids, it was a family day for sure!
    For those who wished i was in landscape mode. Yeah, me too. Let me set the scene here.. I was holding a 1/2 eaten egg salad sandwich in one hand, from 3 sisters so you know it was overflowing with egg salad. Many of my friends are Brandi fans, and I felt so honored to have been there. I wanted to share with them by going live on Facebook, which is in vertical format or the video would have been sideways. It never occurred to me that I was going to share this on youtube. So next time I'm in the magic moment at the right place and time I'll remember to turn my phone. There was a professional film crew with them so maybe this "gig" will show up somewhere. In the meantime, try to enjoy!

    17 Grammy/Emmy winner plus over 28 nominations and a net worth of more than 260 mill usd... and still the most humble, inspirational guy you could think of... you can tell he really enjoys playing, no matter if it is a full stadium or this small plaza... so many "stars" should look up to him and learn what a real legends are like...

      well "most" is a strong word since there are people like keanu reeves not to mention the people that totally dedicate their live to others (Keanu, Dave and the other artists have jobs, they dont do it full time), but either way Dave is a great person and a great artist 😉

    I was at Pike Place that day. I stumbled across this right about the time they started Times Like These. I’ve never had a religious experience before, but I’d imagine it has to feel pretty close to lucking into a front row seat at a free Dave Grohl concert

Unfortunately, he just doesn't have the money to commit himself to do thing that he loves.

    I stumbled on to this by accident about a year ago drawn by Dave Grohl and confused by the presence of who I thought had been the lead singer for The Go Go’s. When I figured out my mistake I searched for Brandi and the first thing that popped up was The Joke. After repeated views I realized that only one time before had I ever been so affected by a song upon the first time I heard it. That was in 1970, when I heard Let It Be for the first time. So thank you for introducing me to Brandi.

    Pike Place is such a trip. Part tourist trap, part cultural icon, a lot of ramps, fish being thrown around (at least near where this performance was), and you just never know who you may run into. It's truly a special and unique place. I've only been there once, but it was one heck of an experience, even without famous people performing when I was there. Happy for everyone who got to see this.
