    Everybody's praising Dave - which he deserves - but give it up to the rest of the band too. They were rocking out with her along with Dave and gladly let her take centerstage. I saw no ego in any of those men as they stepped aside to let a young woman shine. The Foo Fighters are just great men.

    • @anthonyzullo

      The crew even turned down all the other instruments and even Dave's mic to let her hear herself jam the hardest. Its artist like them that create the next generation of artists through their own work and means. Dave fully understands the gravity of this moment for her and the team trusts Dave to make the right decisions and moves so being on board was paramount. What a powerful moment.

    As my friend once said: "Dave Grohl doesn't just let anyone play the drums for him." You've made it into an elite group if you've done that... Now imagine doing that at age 11, in front of thousands of people, and absolutely killing it and throwing in party tricks. What a legend.

    I loved the fact the Dave never once mentioned her age here. To do so would diminish the moment somewhat as it could come across that was only there because she was a "cute kid" . The reality is she is a kickass drummer and was there on merit alone and her age was irrelevant. Awesome

I just can't imagine how it feels to be a father in that moment and realise that the person you created and nurtured is making a huge impact in the world and bringing joy to so many people. This is definitely not the last time she will stand on a stage this size with crowds this big. To perform like this in the presence of your musical heroes is the dream of a lifetime and Nandi's just at the beginning of her life's journey. This is the best thing I've seen in a very long time, so wholesome and uplifting which is exactly what the world needs. Congratulations Nandi, you were incredible and what a awesome thing for FFs to do!

    I've watched this at least 15 times since that night. Nandi was, on this night, officially introduced to the rock 'n' roll world.
    And what did she do? She did what she does -- she played the song completely locked-in with the band without a single error or glitch (even Taylor was there watching from his drumkit, overseeing this amazing performance like a galactic warlord - a happy one) and carried the weight of this song like freight train.
    Even sections of the song that required a quick improvisational adjustment were handled by Nandi and the Foo Fighters without flinching.
    It was another night in rock 'n' roll without fail. Once you kick THAT much a$$ on stage at a venue like the L.A. Forum, people know you mean business. That happened for the Foos many years ago, and on this night, to Nandi. Like a musician so serious she pours rudiments on her breakfast cereal instead of milk.
    This video will forever be Nandi's calling card: Her entry in the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame was secured on this night as well.
    Keep on rockin'!!

      Not really a prodigy. Nandi is a very good drummer who has had the self-discipline and put in the practice time necessary. She was fortunate to be born into a family that nurtured her music, encouraged her to have confidence and reach out to the world, and has helped make her the happy, confident musician she is today. This was going to happen eventually - she's a sweet kid with a lot of talent - and I'm very happy for her and her family.

    Nandi is the queen! I giggle cried the whole time. No doubt this was THE best day of her whole life. So happy for them all. What a joy!

      YES! Giggle-cried is exactly it. It’s awkward, but wonderful.

      I was too!!! It was just pure light and excitement. I felt like I was fangirling more for Nandi then the Foos in that moment. Tears of JOY.
