Speaking of Nirvana disappointments, what about Dave Grohl?
I'd say at this point the foo fighters have more than proven themselves. Would also say ,at this point, their catalog trumps that of Nirvana.
Nirvana had some great tunes no doubt about it they also had some real stinkers. Considering their catalog is limited (to say the very least) I'd say the Foos got them beat.
Plus ,love them or hate them, you must admit dave grohl and the boys have some pretty fine music playing skills.
I personally believe dave is more talented than kurt was to be perfectly honest.
Lets be realistic you can only write so many songs about misery, mental anguish, dysfunctional love, rejection leading to suicidal ideation, teen angst/woes before that shit becomes real old ... considering I'm not a teenager anymore (and really wasn't a miserable one. Was pretty high on life actually) I simply out grew the stuff and quickly.
Then the Foos came along and filled that void just fine.
Would also like to add kurt was pretty immature in many ways and dave has more than proven his ability to take on the stresses of fame, fortune and the modern music scene more like an adult ... just being honest.
So not too sure why some people dislike dave grohl so much the guys a true talent. Hes even grown up to the point that I'm actually beginning to like his personality in interviews. Couldn't say that years ago.
Didn't mean to hijack the thread saw this and couldn't help myself lol.
