When the interviewee is more prepared than the interviewer. If I interviewed Dave, i would prepare to laugh at his quick responses and expect them, because that is what he does lol

      That being said, bad music has an expiration date:
      Take That: Dead
      Spice Girls: Dead
      Boyzone: Dead
      Britney Spears: Dead
      Westlife: Dead
      Five: Dead
      S Club 7: Dead
      Atomic Kitten: Dead
      Sugababes: Dead
      Girls Aloud: Dead
      Black Eyed Pees: Dead
      JLS: Dead
      *All the american idol and xfactor one hit wonders: super Dead*
      The Wanted: Dead
      Union J: Dead
      One Direction: Dead when the next boy/girl band comes out
      Rita Ora: Dead
      I could go on and on and on. Manufactured commercial music always has an expiration date of 5-10 years after the popstar starts, and less than a year when they quit because it's just terrible where as people are still listening to and discovering bands like Led Zep, Floyd, or Sabbath to bands like The Smiths, U2 or Metallica to bands like Radiohead, Nirvana or _Foo Fighters._ Pop listeners are being fed shit and they don't even know it haha

    America has an ageist problem. See, that kind of approach used to work decades ago when it was mostly squares in the 60's. But what used to be seen as youth culture belongs to, and can be viable and bear contributions from, everyone of all ages.
    The spirit of music is ageless. Anyone who thinks different is the one with the problem.

    Time passing makes me sad. I vividly remember being 14-15 in 1999 when they were a modern edgy alternative band and Dave was still only in his early 30s. I guess I just can't accept that Gen X and everything associated with it (i.e. rock music) isn't as relevant and cool anymore. It means I'm getting middle-aged too!

      It is called Big Me. It's about your Dad. Like when you are a young son and you are just like your Dad, you might say he is "Big Me" And your Dad might call you "little me". Scholars believe this is where the "Dad Rock" genre was born in some circles.

      My guess is the fanbase (or most of it) which shocks and upsets me. I was 14 in 1999 when Learn To Fly was a hit and they were viewed as a cool edgy band very much "for the kids". I feel like 40 shouldn't be middle-aged and daddish now, but I guess it still is:(

Also lol @ Dave grohls "Please stop being concerned about how old we are" expressions in the interview. He's such a gentlemen though. I could see he was slightly irritated , but he just kept cool, and treated her with respect.

      @Jaqen-HGhar Před 6 lety +30

      I'm guessing this isn't the first video of a female interviewer where you made this comment. Let me guess it's about ethics in music journalism right?
      You do realize she referenced numerous past comments they've made in other interviews, referenced past songs, brought up the current album. She even brough up previous collaborations (including Rick Astley which most people don't), and the holy grail of all as far as doing a good interview of the foo fighters, she didn't ask them about Kurt Cobain or Nirvana.
      As far as being interested and getting them interested this was one of the better interviews I've seen with the whole band in it. In fact most of them you see their only good because of Dave Grohl's personality but you can tell they hate the questions.
      I think your comment says more about you than it does about her.

      even though it is basically the same exact thing, its not like Seether was the first to come up with that idea either. old people jamming out to rock music is always used in things, like random commercials and shit. Bury Your Dead even has a music video thats kind of the same concept, where they play metal for a bunch of snooty rich people that eventually start getting into it.
