Dave Grohl

Dave Grohl is a very talented musician and he has been a part of many bands. Many people, including myself, find his music very entertaining, and enjoy his music. Dave Grohl started his music career with Nirvana, as their drummer. That is where and how he started his music career and made a name for himself. Nirvana’s lead singer was Kurt Cobain, who at the age of around 27 committed suicide by shooting himself in his brain through his mouth. In the autopsy of his body there was a lot of drugs, indicating a drug overdose. However, the amount of drugs in his system was enough meth for multiple men to overdose, making people wonder. However, Kurt Cobain and Dave Grohl were two members of the band Nirvana. Some of the more well known Nirvana songs are Smells Like Teen Spirit, The Man Who Sold the World, Come as You Are, Heart-Shaped Box, Lithium, About a Girl, All Apologies, Waif Me, In Bloom, Where Did you Sleep Last Night, Something in the Way, Sappy, Dumb, You Know You’re Right, Lake of Fire, On a Plain, Pennyroyal Tea, Territorial Pissings, Serve the Servants, Drain You, Silver, Polly, Lounge Act, Aneurysm, Endless Nameless, Breed, Plateau, and Rape Me. Through his time in Nirvana Dave Grohl was able to make a name for himself.

After Kurt Cobain’s suicide, the band of Nirvana was dissolved. However, Dave Grohl wanted to stay in the music industry, so he formed another band, the Foo Fighters. The Foo Fighters are also very popular. They are known for some their more well known songs. Some of their many songs are Everlong, Learn to Fly, The Pretender, Best of You, Times Like These, Something from Nothing, Walk, Big Me, All my Life, Congregation, My Hero, Monkey Wrench, DOA, These Days, Wheels, Long Road to Ruin, Subterranean, This is a Call, Arlandria, Dear Rosemary, Breakout, White Limo, Rope, Walking After You, Stranger Things Have Happened, I’ll Stick Around, In the Clear, I am a River, The Feast and the Famine, Stacked Actors, I should have Known, Let it Die, Come Alive, What Did I Do/God As My Witness, and Skin and Bones. The Foo Fighters, along with Dave Grohl, are still around today, continuing to make albums and songs and tour across the country and in other areas. They just recently came out with a new album, titled Saint Cecilia.

This last year, on tour, Dave Grohl broke his leg. However, he kept up with the tours that had already been planned, changed the name of the tour to the Break a Leg Tour, and got himself a throne made from which he could perform onstage from.
