I also keep thinking that Dave Grohl is clearly going through something. I keep picturing him rehearsing or playing some big ass stadium show with Josh Freese just nailing it and sitting around with some veteran Foos smoking a cigarette and saying, "No, no. It's still not right. We're still not getting it. I really still think it might be the drummer." And the guys are nervously eyeing each other afraid to speak all like, "I don't know man he was pretty amazing tonight. But if you don't think this is working....."

I think he's trying to recapture something he's missing and keeps looking on the drum stool when it's really somewhere else.

This has been my personal armchair psychoanalysis of Mr. David Grohl.

This is funny and perhaps apt.
I think his womanising has done irreversible damage to the brand; FF were a mid band that built its rep then coasted on Grohl's reputation as "really nice", fun, and drummer of Nirvana. He's no longer nice, so the music has to do the heavy lifting...

It'd be like if someone in RHCP killed someone with their car.

Jesus dude, having one side piece after 30 plus years of being a rock star is hardly vehicular homicide. People are way too up their own asses about all that.

Also, Anthony Keidis is basically a pedophile and that hasn't hurt his band at all as far as I can tell.
