Foo Fighters and Drummer Josh Freese Part Ways

Has Josh Freese ever played in a band where he's the guy? Maybe A Perfect Circle, but I don't even think he made it to the second album.

No, just like I was telling my friend, Josh Freese is a donut. You put him on when your drummer suffers a blowout and he gets you perfectly well from A to B, but eventually you have to get the correct tire.
Don't worry, by this time tomorrow he'll be in Ace of Base.

Probably just didn't like the guy and wanted someone more enjoyable to be around. You're spending 12 hours a day together for months at a time so if someone is insufferable then it can make everyone miserable.

More like the Poo Fighters amirite?

Josh was slaying all the chubby emo pussy after the gigs. Dave couldn’t handle it.

"No reason was given"

they did give a reason

[Foo Fighters wanted] “to go in a different direction with their drummer”

It's a difficult job to fill . Dave is always going to know better because he's a drummer and Taylor Hawkins is as if a saint so no one will measure up to him.

bulks up after each successful kill

What does it mean?

did he borrow his beard line from George Lucas

Okay can we get a QRD or something? I keep seeing Grohl is a murderer but I’m genuinely curious what substantial evidence makes people believe this is true. He’s a tool but murderer?

Dave Grohl looks like Jerry Garcia now.

He killed Cobain to start Poo Fighters and then killed Hawkins because he crossed him

As good as Josh seemed to be for the band, I think it was clear that Taylor's son took a major claim to the drummer role in the band after the tribute show. That kid could drum man

Headcannon but I'd believe. Dave is an evil piece of shit.

It's actually Pat Smear who is the murderer. Killed The Germs frontman Darby Crash then killed Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain and then he killed Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins.

Word on the street is that josh criticized Dave's drinking

This is very common in the petty grunge scene, they will ostracize and then fire them quickly without real reason given. All the bands suffered through this
This happened to Jason Everman twice. Dave has done this to more members of his band then those that stuck around.

why does all the weight go to his neck?

I thought they had the Queen guy's son drumming for them? what happened to that?

Their old drummer sharing both his names with 2 members of the Darkness always fucks with me misreading anything about him the first time

and Taylor Hawkins is as if a saint so no one will measure up to him.

Esl moment

He said AIDS is real

one of the best drummers in the game

steps in for an earth shattering tragedy of loosing Taylor

kills it for a few years

gets dropped like a bad habit in the exact same way Jay Weinberg did.

Just what the fuck is Dave’s problem? What a piece of shit.

That's actually kind of an apt analogy.

It's like when they brought in Tony Levin for pink floyd. Ultimately he's a hired gun (albeit brilliant hired gun, one of the greatest bass players in the world). But in the big picture he's he's a ringer coming in to be the spare tire. IMHO that's part of why TDB is a better album than AMLoR; AMLoR was "let's call a bunch of kickass studio musicians and do an album under the PInk Floyd name" vs TDB, which had a much better sense of Floyd v3

dude got out before he got got

It's not that, it's just that his chin is so weak he makes Eric Clapton look like a chad. That's why he's never been clean shaven since the early 90's

Foo Fighters played in Manchester back in 2003 and they let three kids (two 12 year old girls and a 13 year old boy) on stage after they asked and Dave let the boy strip completely naked on stage

Always hated his smug little gay face.
Such shameless arrogance.
Nothing is more telling than that scene in The Decline Of Western Civilization Part 1 where he proudly states that he hates women, as if being a pretentious cocksucking faggot was/is somehow a virtue, which it isn't.
The Germs were a cool band, but just as long as I'm able to forget that Pat Smear was their guitarist.
Also, he's literally the worst part of late era Nirvana live in which he was nothing better than a Germs reference within a much more esteemed musical outfit (a.k.a. a literal footnote).
A face that one could be forgiven for wanting to punch the shit out of.

... for now.

Why do so many people think Dave killed Kurt? It's so obvious Courtney paid Michael Cali DeWitt to do the kill.

It's better for him, then he isn't in this shitty band no more.

Actually it was me. I murdered all of them. Sorry guys.
