The lack of automatic sycophantic head nodding from the interviewer warms my heart.

lol "you just gotta be badass" best advice ever

I've been a musician for all my life. Toured. Japan. Seven albums.....and this is exactly exactly right. Get into the mentality that "you already made it" just cause you worked hard on your music and executed with all your passion. Everything else is a by product of practicing hard and love.

I'm pretty sure Dave's advice here isn't about getting lots of recognition and making lots of money. It's putting into perspective the meaning of success, which to him is the instant gratification of performing in front of real people who think you're the shit. If you're looking at this thinking "But that's not how the modern music industry works!" then you're totally missing the point.

This is the attitude of a true artist - you don’t do something because you wanna be famous or adored, you do something for the love of it. You put in the effort and time in, give it your all and always enjoy what you’re doing. Success will follow and if you’re loving what you’re doing anyway, you’re already winning!

Everyone saying that this doesn't apply unless it was still the 90's, you're wrong. The only thing that's changed is that the industry has a tighter hold on whose allowed to make a ton of money on selling songs. Fortunately, there are still TONS of bands out there that follow in his footsteps. Just go out to live shows of bands you hear touring ALL the time. They don't have lots of recorded music, they don't sell a bunch of t-shirts, but when they come to town, they're sure as hell gonna sell the place out. Bands like Cage the Elephant, Streetlight Manifesto, the Dirty Heads, just to name a few, (and these are all still relatively mainstream) are all totally successful in their own right. They may not be on every radio station, they may not top anything by Billboards, but they have insanely loyal fan bases who will stop at nothing to keep the bands alive off their ticket sales so they can KEEP touring and KEEP playing music which is what it's all really about. Peace!

Man, it's guys like Dave Grohl and Eddie Vedder who inspire me like this, idk what it is about them but they just got it figured out.

Best advice for aspiring musican ever. Forget about the rest of the crap, just do that. The top bands probably focused on that first and foremost, not about what do I wear, royalties, videos, marketing...Truly inspiring.

Dude is right. Example: I had never really heard Parkway Drive before I saw them at Sonic Temple and couple years ago. Their set BLEW ME AWAY. Now I have lots of merch, can't wait to travel four hours one way to see them again and listen to their music eveey day.... All because they played with love and passion. It was amazing.

if someone else had said that you may have had a valid point. But I was part of the same underground scene as Grohl came from and I can assure you that he payed his dues for years touring with bands that didn't make money. first with Scream and then Nirvana. back in those days plenty of now legendary bands would literally have to sell their blood at blood banks to get gas money to get to the next gig. they lived on ramen and blocks of cheese from food banks and when they got back from tour they were homeless because they couldn't afford to rent their apartments or rooms while they were on tour. bands like Black Flag and DRI all had to do that. but they lived that kind of life because they loved the music. and Grohl was one of them.

There are so many really good musicians, and only a handful will ever make it big, even briefly. But when you’re watching someone perform live, and they’ve got that glow of loving what they do, you know that money isn’t what it’s about. But I still try to support them generously so they can at least be comfortable and do more of what they do, because that benefits the whole society.

THANK YOU DAVE !!!!!

Tearing up staring at my phone knowing that someone understands me. Definitely not a social media gal or one to compete, but love sharing my music. I feel this way whole heartedly. YOU ROCK, DAVE GROHL!

Seriously, many people are missing the point of this video. Dave Grohl's message is not hard to understand - play with passion, play with attitude, and do it because you love it. Whether you think his point is too 'naive' or not, he is to an extent not wrong - just go out and do it.
