Semper Fi - 1775 |
You are at a Foo Fighter concert and Dave G asks who can play drums? You raise your hand and get pulled up on stage....could you pull this off? Really begins to rock after 5 Minutes in...Dave calls him a "good f'ing drummer" I mean….other than becoming a rock star, what could ever exceed this moment musically for this dude? It is Dave Grohl so be warned there are a few curse words… ___________________________ All it takes...is all you got. ____________________________ For those who have fought for it, Freedom has a flavor the protected will never know ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ | ||

That's awesome. Dave Grohl is, by practically all accounts, a really good guy and just a regular joe. Nothing rock star about him whatsoever. A few years ago, he broke his leg and rather than cancel the tour and disappoint the fans, he played live, sitting in a chair with a cast on. Reminds me of this piece of rock 'n roll legend, when Keith Moon passed out in the middle of a song on stage and The Who had some random dude fill in for him and do a damn fine job of it. IIRC, they basically threatened him with his job after the show. ______________________________________________ “There are plenty of good reasons for fighting, but no good reason ever to hate without reservation, to imagine that God Almighty Himself hates with you, too.” | |||

Edit. ^^ Beat me to it. FF are one band where musicians in the crowd have a decent shot of a Walter Mitty-like fantasy coming true. Of course, the original incident was Keith Moon passing out and Pete asking if anyone could play the drums. A guy in the front finished out the show for them. Check out the FF video of the guy in the Gene Simmons makeup sitting in for a song. I've done this stuff in bars plenty, but never been asked at a big show (yet). | |||

Ol' Jack always says... what the hell. |
That's a pretty good one but Kiss Guy takes the win https://youtu.be/TjVOWOKa-lY Keith Urban called up a kid from the audience and he nails it. It's not planned but the kid obviously was ready for the moment https://youtu.be/xsu2AUxcH4k | |||

Wow, I was not aware of The Who story. The kid who did that is not deceased, brain tumor. Here is his Wiki page....pretty damn cool. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scot_Halpin To add.... Kiss Guy! As one of the YouTube comments said, “it was nice of Kiss Guy to invite Dave to his concert!” Again...Dave G is one of the coolest dudes ever. ___________________________ All it takes...is all you got. ____________________________ For those who have fought for it, Freedom has a flavor the protected will never know ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ | |||
