Dave Grohl Quotes

You look up to your heroes and you shouldn’t be intimidated by them, you should be inspired by them Picture Quote #1

Cause when you’re sequencing a record, you want the listener to stick with it from beginning to end, and in order to do that, you really have to map out the journey from the first song to the last Picture Quote #1

My mother was a public school teacher in Virginia, and we didn’t have any money, we just survived on happiness, on being a happy family Picture Quote #1

I’m kind of claustrophobic... It’s not even like enclosed spaces. It’s like I hate being stuck in one band, you know? Just being stuck is the biggest drag, for fear that, you know, just that you can’t get out Picture Quote #1

You can make yourself the greatest singer in the world or the best drummer in the world with the aid of technology Picture Quote #1

A place like Sound City, which was just a big, beautiful room where you would hit record and capture the sound of the performer - a place like that isn’t necessarily in demand anymore Picture Quote #1

There’s a big difference between falling in love with someone and falling in love with someone and getting married. Usually, after you get married, you fall in love with the person even more Picture Quote #1

Whenever I say I made a record in the garage, people just assume that I have, like, a Lear jet parked in there or something. But really there’s old luggage, a couple of bikes. It’s big enough to put one minivan in. That’s it. No dartboard. I’m so not macho Picture Quote #1

I never needed much, and I never thought I’d get more than what I had. A trip to Burger King was the biggest thing in the world to me. Heaven Picture Quote #1

I didn’t start sweating until I had children. That was one of the first things I realized when my daughter Violet was born - I started getting wicked BO. You know there’s a difference between basketball BO and stress BO? This was definitely stress BO. Like, new dad BO Picture Quote #1

I had never been in charge of anything. I’d always worked for someone. I worked for a furniture warehouse. I did masonry. I always had a boss yelling at me. So I’d never been in charge of an organization Picture Quote #1

No, there’s something about the sing-song cadence of children’s music that has its place in rock Picture Quote #1

When you have kids, you see life through different eyes. You feel love more deeply and are maybe a little more compassionate. It’s inevitable that that would make its way into your songwriting Picture Quote #1

In this day and age, when you can use a machine or computer to simulate or emulate what people can do together, it still can’t replace the magic of four people in a room playing Picture Quote #1

Singing into a microphone and learning to play an instrument - learning to do your craft - that’s the most important thing! It’s not about what goes on in a computer! Picture Quote #1

I never went to rock concerts when I was a kid. I didn’t see any rock and roll bands Picture Quote #1

I never went to rock concerts when I was a kid. I didn’t see any rock and roll bands. I had posters on my wall. I had Beatles records Picture Quote #1

The most important thing for me is my family, and my health and happiness, and making sure everyone’s cool Picture Quote #1

When you’re thirteen and listening to punk, the aggressive nature of music can sway you to the dark side Picture Quote #1

When I listen to music these days, and I hear Pro Tools and drums that sound like a machine - it kinda sucks the life out of music Picture Quote #1

I’d like to imagine I won’t end up in Hell, but I think I’ve done too much acid and listened to too much death metal to sit on a cloud next to God with angels floating above my head Picture Quote #1

Sharing music is not a crime. It shouldn’t be. There should be a deeper meaning to making music than just selling downloads Picture Quote #1

That’s one of the great things about music. You can sing a song to 85,000 people and they’ll sing it back for 85,000 different reasons Picture Quote #1

When digital technology started becoming the norm, you’ve got 50, 60, 70 years of recordings on tapes that are just deteriorating. Like, a two-inch reel of recording tape won’t last forever. It dissolves. It will disappear Picture Quote #1

If you play a Nickleback song backwards you’ll hear messages from the devil. Even worse, if you play it forwards you’ll hear Nickleback Picture Quote #1

When I listen to the radio, I just hear so much music that doesn’t even sound like people. The vocals are all tuned, and the drums are all fake Picture Quote #1

It was that famous joke: What’s the last thing the drummer said before he got kicked out of the band? ‘Hey, I wrote a song.’ Picture Quote #1

We only do what feels right. If something feels forced or contrived, then we pull back. We remain the Foo Fighters Picture Quote #1

You know why Foo Fighters have been a band for 20 years? Because I’ve never really told anybody what I think of them. The last thing you ever want to do is go to therapy with your band Picture Quote #1

I owe everything to Nirvana. But I can’t let that overshadow the future. For the first few years, I didn’t even want to talk about Nirvana. Partly because it was just painful to talk about losing Kurt but also because I wanted the Foo Fighters to mean something Picture Quote #1
