Chris was so cool there are stories of him and the band touring in Australia and hearing someone playing their songs in a garage they walked in and gave the kids a 40minute lesson on how to play their songs. Now that's fucking rock royalty.
@@ryanedwards4512 it is its in an interview somewhere. I don't recall which one. He speaks about it as if it was nothing but to those kids it would of meant the world. He is just a nice guy. I don't think music and fame ever went to his head. It's not a long interview bit and it belongs to an interview if I recall is 60minutes long. If I find it again I will post the link. Or if anyone else finds it post the link.
Keith Moon, the Who drummer, would do the same thing. If he was walking down a street and heard some kid practicing their drums in a garage he would stop in and help them
Fun fact: Soundgarden was named after the sound garden. A musical art installment in a Seattle park. It consists of poles with organ pipes at the top of them that play melodic tones when wind passes through them.
I went to a free concert Pearl Jam gave in the park where that sculpture is at in 1992. It was called "drop in the park" Eddie climbed the stage rafters it was crazy man... it was an incredible show. it was all free including buses and food and water. Seattle bands were amazing man.
Johnny Zed same dude, I wish I had lived to see Alice in Chains, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Audioslave, and a whole bunch of other seriously awesome bands that were before my time. RIP Kurt, Cornell, and Layne
I was a kid in high school in the late '80s whose first introduction to their music was a song off of their 1989/1990 album "Louder Than Love" via its official video which aired on MTV's Headbangers Ball and/or 120 Minutes (the 2-he. genre-specific weekend segments devoted to videos by hard rock/metal and alternative/modern rock acts of the day, respectively). Since the bands coming out of Seattle at the time were hard to categorize for MTV and radio station content formatters of the day, videos by Soundgarden, Nirvana, Pearl Jam and so on were featured on both platforms where previously no cross-pollination occurred.
I love the choice of words that Dave uses as he describes Chris Cornell with Soundgarden. He always seems to be loyal in a professional way. When I saw him in the audience, cheering for Chris Cornell with Soundgarden, I found that to be noble of Dave.
Si Anthony Dave always seemed to be humble. It's not always about him. I've watched him go through some tiny changes, and has the wisdom of pulling through.
Erin I read your post, and saddened by the way of his passing. IF, in fact, that he passed in such horrific act. I can only hope and pray that the person/people who did this, to such a beautiful soul be punished, IMHO.
evanisovich Hey evanisovich: I have read some different theories and speculations regarding Chris Cornell's passing. However, I can't give you anymore information about what really happened. As far as his head being bashed in and 7 broken ribs, I read about something similar to that description. I've seen some other circumstantial evidence, but I'm not in a position to commit myself! On the other hand, you seem to know more about this. Therefore, I'm not going to spend my precious time with your rubbish. Due to the love and respect that I have for Christ Cornell, RIP. and without further adieu, I want to remain in prayer. P E A C E
evanisovich He actually had nine broken ribs, it was in the autopsy report, I'm sorry that I don't have a link to it. Also, the paramedic in communication with the hospital reported the head trauma when asking for permission to call it and a time of death. This is on TH-cam somewhere, I think it's actually titled as the 911 call although it is a paramedic on the scene.
Cornell once said in an interview that he thought it was funny how everyone was trying to interpret the meaning of Black Hole Sun because he didn’t even know what it was about and he wrote it
That’s the thing, nothing has to make total sense it’s the vibe. Yesterday by The Beatles originally had the lyrics ‘ham and cheese’ when Paul was writing it

Then came the first listening of Jane's Nothing Shocking (which happened to coincide with a first experience with mind-altering substances...tell me there's no such thing as fate), and shortly thereafter Ultramega OK and Nirvana's Bleach dropped. My head was spinning, literally and figuratively. What an amazing time. Equally amazing is that I actually remember some of it, lol.
@blue heeler I received "paranoid" on 8track on my 6th birthday. I stopped listening to Black Sabbath after hearing evillive. I love Sabbath ❤️ I just didn't listen to them when I was in my teens. Also Iron Maiden was a big band for me in Elementary school

Love Dave Grohl, he's one of those rare genuine guys ~ talented as f***, no big ego, and able to speak of another great guy's greatness with so much enthusiasm. Thanks for loving Chris as much as we do and being so awesome \m/
Superunknown was technically more advanced than any of the Seattle bands had done. The range on that album is still impressive. Perfect mix of Seattle grunge, classic metal, hard rock, and overall alternative.
There's something heart-warming in seeing Dave Grohl being a huge Soundgarden fanboy and living the music there just like a regular guy. Superunknown is an amazing album. The kind of music you can always go back to and be just as impressed as the first time you heard it.
It just makes him that much kooler that he was up there with the "nobodies" in the nosebleed seats in the back of the house and not up in the front row with the VIPs.
I think Black Hole Sun is for sound engineers who appreciate stuff like "Tool", talking about the mathematics and complexity of the music all the time. And I don't prefer Black Hole Sun that much either. Even a song like "Gun", played with only 3 notes, sounds better to me. But I don't think my personal preference proves anything when it comes to the awesomeness of Black Hole Sun. I disagree with the comment which says it's for "the people who don't understand the whole soundgarden catalog". Maybe we don't understand Black Hole Sun.
I was there too! Really good show. Chris just seemed tired from all the touring. He wasn't ranting..he was just chatting and chilling with everyone between songs. Didn't seem like anything was wrong
OMG!! I love to see DAVE GROHL in the middle of the crowd, that is great!! and Dave is right, there is not another band like Soundgarden and there never will be another band like Soundgarden... great post, thank you
Tina Marie F, I love your name. Actually it's my real name, right up to the last name starting with an "F". I had to check your page out, wondering if I used that accidentally one time to go on TH-cam.
Nothing is more beautiful than to see a true rock legend like Dave Grohl showing unconditional love and respect towards another band of his generation that was still touring. That is the ultimate sign of NO ego. All of humanity can learn from watching this video. I got goose bumps watching Dave rock out at the Sound Garden concert. WOWWWWWWW !!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was 19 in 1990..skid row and van Halen were all over MTV (remember when they played music videos) then the entire Seattle scene showed up and made the best music of my life. I miss it too.
When Kurt died it was like the end of mainstream rock in the worlds face . We never had a Lennon /Dylan/ OZZY , axl/slash . There’s been no rock god since
@@deadohiosky1701 i dont remember the first time i saw it, but i remember the first time i heard that album. My friend got it before that video came out. Whole album was awesome
CreakEChair hahaha. He couldn't do it if he tried...and I like Nirvana. Had a nice punk edge to them. Also love AIC and Soundgarden and Screaming Trees and...
He liked and respected Soundgarden, but he thought Chris Cornell's psuedo-macho posturing was comical. Kurt made it a habit of imitating Chris Cornell whenever he had his shirt off.
@@thewedge8823 I think kurt had an heroine overdose in rome 93 because he thought courtney was cheating,if i was a cuck i wouldnt want to kill my self if my wife was fucking some other dude
@@John-dr8lz there's some alternative/punk rock bands from the early 2000s that I consider to be great. Motion City Soundtrack, Relient K, the Starting Line, Say Anything ect. Great underrated bands.
Grohl in the crowd during Fell On Black Days live seems like it should be one of the most iconic moments of rock heritage, I mean seeing an icon truly experiencing an icon as a fan in with the fans is just priceless and Im so grateful to whoever recorded that
That's very awesome 2 see dave in the audience like that kudos to him.Dave is by far the most respectful gentleman in rock history,im looking forward to see the foo fighters this year in richmond va cant wait
theres a vídeo of john frusciante at a soundgarden tv show, also wstching as a fan, another great artist/humble man that loves this band, rip forever chris, youll be truly missed
Kerl Kierl Yeah, I'm extremely grateful that I got to see Soundgarden about a week before Chris died. It was such a shock to hear that he died when I had just Seen him rocking out on stage a week before.
Kerl Kierl I was going to see them the night Chris Cornell died (I’m from Michigan and live fairly close to Detroit), my dad couldn’t afford the tickets (I was 13 so I couldn’t get a job), and I remember he told me “well there’s always next year”, the next day I woke up and my grandma asked me if I heard about a famous musician that died in Detroit and I was like no and then she said well he played in Soundgarden and my heart just dropped and I kept asking her if she was joking, I regret not mowing lawns or anything to just get a few bucks
Maybe I am burnt out on "Black Hole Sun" I never overly thought it was one of their best songs. I much prefer their other stuff. Same with Nirvana though I think there are far better songs in their catalogue then "Smells like teen spirit".
analyzing it later in life when I learned an instrument, I must admit it is quite interesting, the chord choices were surprising to me. That being said, I still change the channel when I hear it. I still prefer bad motor finger sound garden myself, but to each their own
@@clownname2 nah, filming a dude who is just watching a band is fucking rude and uncool. it's the reason seeing such well known artists in the crowd is rare enough to be noteworthy (or worthy of filming). maybe you don't go to gigs or ever interact with 'famous' musicians (who cares), but filming a guy like that is a dick move. dealing with dicks doing dickish things and not just leaving them alone was one of the aspects of fame that really pissed nirvana off, and unfortunately i think the general mentality when it comes to "celebrities" has only gotten more ridiculous since then, with people thinking folks who play music owe them something, and that normal social conventions don't apply if you are in the presence of a "rock star".
Chris Was an amazing talent... If you haven't already checked out his live stuff and cover songs like nothing compares i highly recommend doing so. I grew up on grunge i actually bought the nevermind album the day it came out on cassette Sep 24th 91' and completely blew the minds of my classmates in 5th grade eating breakfast that next day at school
I could imagine turning around and seeing Dave Grohl. I was once in an empty movie theater to see Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and when the movie was over I turned around and Benicio del Torro was there with his parents watching the movie. To say I felt like I was in the Twilight Zone was an understatement after that movie.
exactly...I mean, its such a simple thing, but when you think about it, when does something like that actually happen ? just how many 'rockstars' go and genuinely experience music like this ? casually going and being 'normal' because he loves the music and chilling in the audience.
Cmom gimme a break hes tryin way too hard to be exactly that guy your gushing about. He says the same thing bout every musician hes asked about. Its boring and safe and tho polite not very genuine. I mean shit nirvana melded sabbath and the beatles with bleach which came out way before black hole sun. Sorry dave just cause u werent on it doesnt mean its less important or somethin. At least kurt was honest and brutal sometimes in his taste in music which made it interesting cause if he said he liked a band that meant you better go check em out cause your missing out. Dave has said Taylor Swift is great i rest my case
Dave hit the bullseye when described Soungarden's early appeal. I turned a lot of people onto Soungarden back in the day. My bro and i would play Suoer Band and tey to imagine the beat of the best in one band. Id almost always use Chris as my vox. There will never be another voice or artist like CC. His work had a unique imapact on me in various stages of my life and His carreer. There will always be an empty hole in my heart wherever and whenever ill be enjoying the lifes work of Chris Cornell. RIP.
Life lessened for so many when CC died, it really did. The world was better with him, and his music, in it. It just was. I'll always be sad about his absence.
Had the huge pleasure to live my 20s in the Soundgarden era! What an amazing band....and it's great to see celebrities such as Dave Grohl sharing such greatness. Huge respect!!!!🔝
Just shows how much Dave loves live music and this band. You know he could a asked Chris for whatever seat in the house he wanted but he wanted to feel apart of the crowd and feel it from a real simply lover of music
Even after all these years Grunge / The Seattle Sound is still my favorite genre of music. The songs were easy to relate to. They dealt with real life and were not centered around picking up groupies and partying like most of the hair band songs were in the 1980's. When you look at songs like Girls, Girls Girls, She's my Cherry Pie and Nothing but a Good Time they cannot hold a candle to Smells like Teen Spirit,, Outshined and Down in a Hole. There's no comparison. .
I dunno id say alice in chains and soundgarden were a step above the rest of the bands around at the time. In terms of heaviness, innovation, melodically etc.
@@benjamindevlin4057 No. Kurt Cobain wrote good vocal melodies, but he was limited as a musician - Chris Cornell and Jerry Cantrell were much more advanced as both players and songwriters.
@@benjamindevlin4057 well nirvana was more raw around the edges. Sure they had melodic songs but in terms of the musicianship aic was amazing live as well as soundgarden. They were more accomplished musicians. Nirvana had more punk in their roots while obviously aic veered towards metal which generally speaking is more precise. But that just my opinion.
Dave's comments on Superunknown are so spot on and honest, it's encouraging to see that someone like him who is also incredibly talented and could have looked at Soundgarden as competition, was instead able to appreciate what they were and had done with that record.
5 years ago I was stationed in England and my Sergeant mentioned how he missed his favorite singer Chris Cornell. I looked him up and having grown up near Seattle I knew so much of his music but never actually knew who he was. Mind blown. I was instantly hooked. RIP Chris Cornell/ Chester Bennington 🤘
Dave is the man on so many levels. So respectful, so talented, so well-spoken, such a great example of a good musician all around. Would love to just hang with the guy
Do people realize how BIG an endorsement it is for Kurt to admit he likes a band that is popular, soundgarden is literally the only band that got famous that I’ve heard him say he liked
@@allsystemsgo8678 IT's an interesting point and counterpoint to Dave. Kurt is a scene guy, he loved the raw underground sound of bands doing it themselves and clearly wasn't a fan of anything he felt was music to be popular. Dave is a pure muso, enjoys the craft and can enthuse about anything. I think it;s very intersting though that Kurt mentions Soundgarden alongside mudhoney and Tad because sound wise they are so different. You can literally hear how Tad and Mudhoney influenced Kurts music but there's no real song by Nirvana apart from maybe something like Heart Shaped Box that resembles a Soundgarden song. Which I guess goes to say how fucking amazing Soundgarden are because it can be recognised by someone with such a very specific taste.
Every one who came in contact with Cris had to like him he was a musical geniuses and thats that end of story he was the first to get a big contract first to get signed to a big label the first to do a world tour the first because he was best it was not luck or an acident that Chris Cornell was the FIRST @ LAST@BEST to come out of Seattle
Something very special happened with the music scene in Seattle in the 90's. Dave is such a down to earth legend. Every chance he gets into the mosh pit with everyone else to rock on with other big bands that he likes.
I remember listening to Badmotorfinger when it came out and it blowing my mind. At the time I didn't understand them getting lumped into the grunge scene because to me it was (and still is) a metal album.
Luis Hernandez whats Hollywood about him? Because he isn’t whining about girls or being angsty? He’s 50+ years old and has kids. Like holy shit people can’t be edgy and emo forever. He’s the face of modern rock and roll more than anyone else.
Ironically, Black Hole Sun has always been one of my least favorites from that album...Spoonman, Superunknown, Fell on Black Days, Like Suicide..god every song is a fucking masterpiece.
You gotta love Dave's humble perspective... Always minimizing his accomplishments And heaping praise on others... To me Dave in the food fighters are one of the most relevant rock band still making music... My absolute favorite musician
Dave & Kurt...Chalk & Cheese! Dave just has a zest for life, is easy to love and enjoy other musicians and just life in general... Just check him out in the crowd getting into to it like any other ticket-holding fan..So down-to-earth, such a happy heart! Kurt, on the other hand, was always determined to be miserable, like some badge of honour, and took perverse pleasure for being "too good" for things most people enjoy..
@@MrShahid0072 Idk man. Nirvana was my favorite band when I was growing up. When In Utero came out that's all I listened to. But the older I get, the more i love AiC and Soundgarden. Maybe I just got burned out on Nirvana? I feel like AiC and Soundgarden wrote more intricate, thought out tunes.
@@OGStinkywizzleteats I think Soundgarden are great but AIC has a body of work I don't really care for. Kurt had a knack for vocal melody. The songs were not profound or anything or aspired to depict pain like Aic but they were musically just better IMO. Aic don't have the tunes. They have great instrumentation and a passionate vocalist but their tunes are boring to me. In the end they are obviously incomparable and are just lumped into one genre for marketing sake. But Nirvana is iconic to me and yeah time passes and you just don't feel that strongly for any artist like you use to. It's just how out minds are wired. I personally think Radiohead is the ultimate band of the 90s and none of the other bands come even to close to the beauty that is OK Computer. I like Aic..I am just not a huge fan. I don't listen to Nirvana anymore either but I do realize our minds seek novelty and the old stuff we once thought was great would never seem that great in the present. So there is always a bias when talking about music like that. But yeah.. Nirvana were exceptional and history will always remember them IMO.
@@MrShahid0072 I can see your point. Although AiC spoke to my soul. Maybe it's because I struggled with addiction, and that was a large part of Aic's lyrical content. Their vocal harmonies definitely don't appeal to everyone. As far as Radiohead goes, I'm in agreement. They are fantastic musicians. I would add STP to this list as well. They wrote catchy and very listenable music as well. They didn't get the credit due at the time because they weren't Seattle boys, and came at the tail end of grunge.
The fact that Dave Grohl actually wants to brave the fans and enjoy Chris Cornell in concert like a real fan speaks volumes about Chris' talent. I'm sure Dave could have been back stage ..... but he wanted to be front and center and jam like the rest of us.... i don't blame him.
"Much more melodically sophisticated than anything any of the other Seattle bands were doing" I know it just comes down to opinion but how can you honestly say that when the same year Jar of Flies by Alice In Chains came out? Listen to Nutshell and tell me that it's not one of the most melodically sophisticated songs you've ever heard.
I think hes talking about his experience and feelings about the music at the time. Maybe he was comparing it to the things that came previously, or maybe he just likes the song allot, who knows.
Not sure if I can nail down if Alice or soundgarden to me are more important, but I can see what Dave was saying. Look at how all over the place superunknown is. Fresh Tendrils? Did that sound like anything else? Alice's EPs threw everyone for a loop for sure but didn't have the crazy time signature changes and differing song structures like soundgarden. Badmotorfinger and Dirt are two of THE most important albums of all time to me so I'm not biased by any means to one band over the other.
AiC is so fucking awesome and some songs of In Utero n even some Mudhoney early songs are pretty melodic and sophisticated but not like Superunknown, never
My all time favorite band & Audio Slave Right Rage Foo fighters This is the music I've loved my 20's through my life to 25 yrs later. Never will I enjoy anyone better!
I started listening to grunge music hardcore in early 1994 when I was 11 years old and grew up worshipping the Seattle scene along with all other good 80s and 90s bands. So glad I got to see most of the bands live and meeting a lot of them too. Dave Grohl is a great humble guy and I love that he’s talking about soundgarden in such a positive way. Although I truly believe Alice and chains and Nirvana were just as good as Soundgarden. Either way music will never be that good again. So glad we have it forever. Thank you to all the great musicians dead and alive who made it for us to enjoy.
Anybody at Lollapalooza 96 in Pownal VT ? Soundgarden did black hole sun and the sky went black and thunderheads rolled in. I was near the big lighting fixture, center stage out 2 or 300 ft. Thought it was going to be struck by lightning. That band was outstanding, Black hole not my favorite tune, but it was magical that day. I remember being awestruck by Cornel's voice. It was real. All of that amazing majesty from the albums was real all he had to do was open up and let it come ripping out. A legendary rock singer I will miss.
This is the difference between Dave and someone like Kurt or Billy Corgan. Dave isn't at all insecure about himself so he's not afraid to spread love to other musicians. He is arguably the most talented out of any of them but isn't so judgemental. I see Kurt as the Regina George of grunge and Dave is Gretchen.
The best sound of all rock music genre came out of Seattle. Hands down . Sonically they blew away all rock music .toppled Guns amd roses which out did LED Zepllin. Rip Lane Staley Chris Cornell Kurt kobain ..just Eddie Vedder remains ..

I loved that album when it came out, but I think I appreciate it more now.
How the hell can a guy like Dave Grohl get away with just standing in the crowd at a rock concert?
Silly Skeleton he doesn't have teen fan girls screaming to have him touch them.
he isn't attracting a lot of atention and honestly looks like a fanboy
Silly Skeleton respect
It just makes him that much kooler that he was up there with the "nobodies" in the nosebleed seats in the back of the house and not up in the front row with the VIPs.
Becaise a band like Soundgarden attracts a crowd that won't be dicks.
Just can't help but like Dave. He is such a generous person.
I like "Fell On Black Days" better than "Black Hole Sun".
@@thebooger_boy4002 Amen. One of the worst songs on an otherwise tremendous album.
No question
I think Black Hole Sun is for sound engineers who appreciate stuff like "Tool", talking about the mathematics and complexity of the music all the time. And I don't prefer Black Hole Sun that much either. Even a song like "Gun", played with only 3 notes, sounds better to me. But I don't think my personal preference proves anything when it comes to the awesomeness of Black Hole Sun. I disagree with the comment which says it's for "the people who don't understand the whole soundgarden catalog". Maybe we don't understand Black Hole Sun.
I like audioslave better then Soundgarden....fight me
Audioslave- Million miles is far better than both of those songs in any aspect, especially vocally
Saw Soundgarden in Indianapolis 2017, a week before Chris died. What an amazing talent and great loss. RIP CHRIS!!!!
I was there too! Really good show. Chris just seemed tired from all the touring. He wasn't ranting..he was just chatting and chilling with everyone between songs. Didn't seem like anything was wrong
Benzos drive people INSANE & then they Kill Themselves!!!! STAY AWAY FROM BENZO 💀
OMG!! I love to see DAVE GROHL in the middle of the crowd, that is great!! and Dave is right, there is not another band like Soundgarden and there never will be another band like Soundgarden... great post, thank you
Tina Marie F didnt notice any bodyguards either, i wonder if people were aware that was the grohlster
Seems like the person recording it noticed......
Tina Marie F there will also never be another band like Mad season or Alice in chains.
Heidi C. Franks i know right.
Tina Marie F, I love your name. Actually it's my real name, right up to the last name starting with an "F". I had to check your page out, wondering if I used that accidentally one time to go on TH-cam.
Nothing is more beautiful than to see a true rock legend like Dave Grohl showing unconditional love and respect towards another band of his generation that was still touring. That is the ultimate sign of NO ego. All of humanity can learn from watching this video. I got goose bumps watching Dave rock out at the Sound Garden concert. WOWWWWWWW !!!!!!!!!!!!!
what a time to be a 19 yr old..god i miss that early 90s rock scene...damn..it was so fukn special
I was 19 in 1990..skid row and van Halen were all over MTV (remember when they played music videos) then the entire Seattle scene showed up and made the best music of my life. I miss it too.
When Kurt died it was like the end of mainstream rock in the worlds face . We never had a Lennon /Dylan/ OZZY , axl/slash . There’s been no rock god since
It was for rock and R&B
@@sadmachines6991 remember the first time you saw Man in the Box on MTV? Haha, complete mindfuck. David Lee Roth never looked more foolish.
@@deadohiosky1701 i dont remember the first time i saw it, but i remember the first time i heard that album. My friend got it before that video came out. Whole album was awesome
I was really hoping to see Kurt Cobain in a towel, singing outshined into a razor at the end.
CreakEChair hahaha. He couldn't do it if he tried...and I like Nirvana. Had a nice punk edge to them. Also love AIC and Soundgarden and Screaming Trees and...
Lol Montage of Heck footage.
He liked and respected Soundgarden, but he thought Chris Cornell's psuedo-macho posturing was comical. Kurt made it a habit of imitating Chris Cornell whenever he had his shirt off.
@@RockandrollNegro If i looked like chris cornell, id have my t shirt off all the fucking time.
@@thewedge8823 I think kurt had an heroine overdose in rome 93 because he thought courtney was cheating,if i was a cuck i wouldnt want to kill my self if my wife was fucking some other dude
A great lesson of life Dave did, if you truly love something, be humble and cheer others, dont forget who you are and from where you came.
Dave is such a special down to earth, humble guy it seems...so much respect for him
I love Dave Grohl. Truly just a fanboy in the audience :)
MydirtyRat1 Dave is a straight up nerd...music nerd and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
@@sixnohitkee8281 depends on what way did you said it
The last great rock era.
Early 2000s weren't tooo bad, it all completely died after that.
There WILL be resurgence. A new age.
@@John-dr8lz a lot of it was, but there were some real good bands
@@John-dr8lz there's some alternative/punk rock bands from the early 2000s that I consider to be great. Motion City Soundtrack, Relient K, the Starting Line, Say Anything ect. Great underrated bands.
It really isn't. You just have to pull the stick out of your ass to realize that there still are bands that are release some real good music.
Grohl in the crowd during Fell On Black Days live seems like it should be one of the most iconic moments of rock heritage, I mean seeing an icon truly experiencing an icon as a fan in with the fans is just priceless and Im so grateful to whoever recorded that
Not to mention, Black Hole Suns video is like... The Best Ever!
ice cream...i never ate it again
That's very awesome 2 see dave in the audience like that kudos to him.Dave is by far the most respectful gentleman in rock history,im looking forward to see the foo fighters this year in richmond va cant wait
Jonathan Wyatt
Did you go the concert?
I got the honor of seeing Soundgarden and NIN co-headline in 2014. Absolutely EPIC show. RIP Chris
Dave is the ultimate music fan!! Such a genuinely cool guy!!
Grohl summed it up so perfectly, and that concert footage with him completely expressing the way it felt to hear them, is priceless
theres a vídeo of john frusciante at a soundgarden tv show, also wstching as a fan, another great artist/humble man that loves this band, rip forever chris, youll be truly missed
I did see Soundgarden in 1995, in 2014 I almost see them again but didnt go. I regret so much. RIP Chris Cornell man he is missed.
Kerl Kierl Yeah, I'm extremely grateful that I got to see Soundgarden about a week before Chris died. It was such a shock to hear that he died when I had just Seen him rocking out on stage a week before.
I saw them in 90 when they opened for Guns and Roses and then later as the headliner. I think STP opened for them?
Kerl Kierl I was going to see them the night Chris Cornell died (I’m from Michigan and live fairly close to Detroit), my dad couldn’t afford the tickets (I was 13 so I couldn’t get a job), and I remember he told me “well there’s always next year”, the next day I woke up and my grandma asked me if I heard about a famous musician that died in Detroit and I was like no and then she said well he played in Soundgarden and my heart just dropped and I kept asking her if she was joking, I regret not mowing lawns or anything to just get a few bucks
Maybe I am burnt out on "Black Hole Sun" I never overly thought it was one of their best songs. I much prefer their other stuff. Same with Nirvana though I think there are far better songs in their catalogue then "Smells like teen spirit".
I agree.
I shot my love today...
@@indrajithak47 would you cry for me
I disagree
analyzing it later in life when I learned an instrument, I must admit it is quite interesting, the chord choices were surprising to me. That being said, I still change the channel when I hear it. I still prefer bad motor finger sound garden myself, but to each their own
Is it just me, or is the person randomly recording Dave Grohl at the concert kind of creepy?
Prettyzombie lil'bit
Naw, it's cool.
N I R V A N A he was in awe that's all
Sergei Fapinov 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😆🤣👍 👌🏼point well made! ....too funny. 😉✌🏼
@@clownname2 nah, filming a dude who is just watching a band is fucking rude and uncool. it's the reason seeing such well known artists in the crowd is rare enough to be noteworthy (or worthy of filming).
maybe you don't go to gigs or ever interact with 'famous' musicians (who cares), but filming a guy like that is a dick move.
dealing with dicks doing dickish things and not just leaving them alone was one of the aspects of fame that really pissed nirvana off, and unfortunately i think the general mentality when it comes to "celebrities" has only gotten more ridiculous since then, with people thinking folks who play music owe them something, and that normal social conventions don't apply if you are in the presence of a "rock star".
I was at the Show and saw Grohl. What a awesome show and what a great down to earth man Grohl is.
Where was this? That looks like the Fabulous forum ceiling
If Dave noticed the guy filming him he would probably think something like "If you're gonna film anyways, film the band, not me"
Chris Was an amazing talent... If you haven't already checked out his live stuff and cover songs like nothing compares i highly recommend doing so. I grew up on grunge i actually bought the nevermind album the day it came out on cassette Sep 24th 91' and completely blew the minds of my classmates in 5th grade eating breakfast that next day at school
I could imagine turning around and seeing Dave Grohl. I was once in an empty movie theater to see Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and when the movie was over I turned around and Benicio del Torro was there with his parents watching the movie. To say I felt like I was in the Twilight Zone was an understatement after that movie.
I agree with him about the kids and grandkids liking that song. My 4 children are between the ages of 12 & 3 and they all love Black Hole Sun
is that Dave in the audience? Awesomeness!
Yeah, that's Dave.
Just one of us
exactly...I mean, its such a simple thing, but when you think about it, when does something like that actually happen ?
just how many 'rockstars' go and genuinely experience music like this ? casually going and being 'normal' because he loves the music and chilling in the audience.
He just knows talent ,wants to worship a ROCKGOD,,,,,,,,,
Picture says can i have your autograph
It’s so sad that we had to lose Chris.He meant so much to so many.There will never be another like him.
WOW Dave proves that even if your a BIG Rockstar you can be a Simple FAN :)
joshua dela cruz
Simple fan Simple woman.
an human yes...
All the greats are fanboys of someone.
Cmom gimme a break hes tryin way too hard to be exactly that guy your gushing about. He says the same thing bout every musician hes asked about. Its boring and safe and tho polite not very genuine. I mean shit nirvana melded sabbath and the beatles with bleach which came out way before black hole sun. Sorry dave just cause u werent on it doesnt mean its less important or somethin. At least kurt was honest and brutal sometimes in his taste in music which made it interesting cause if he said he liked a band that meant you better go check em out cause your missing out. Dave has said Taylor Swift is great i rest my case
Soundgarden was probably my favorite grunge band in the 90s.
Dave hit the bullseye when described Soungarden's early appeal. I turned a lot of people onto Soungarden back in the day.
My bro and i would play Suoer Band and tey to imagine the beat of the best in one band.
Id almost always use Chris as my vox.
There will never be another voice or artist like CC.
His work had a unique imapact on me in various stages of my life and His carreer. There will always be an empty hole in my heart wherever and whenever ill be enjoying the lifes work of Chris Cornell. RIP.
Life lessened for so many when CC died, it really did. The world was better with him, and his music, in it. It just was. I'll always be sad about his absence.
To me, Superunknown was like if Revolver and Zep I had an aggressively sexy lovechild.
To have people just screaming , yelling & singing a song you wrote back to you, must be an amazing experience! 💕🥰💕
Dave Grohl is the Shit!!!! So real and down to earth
Had the huge pleasure to live my 20s in the Soundgarden era! What an amazing band....and it's great to see celebrities such as Dave Grohl sharing such greatness. Huge respect!!!!🔝
I'm that kid right now and I'm loving it but I'm sad because I got into soundgarden like 4 months before Chris died and never got to see them live rip
Just shows how much Dave loves live music and this band. You know he could a asked Chris for whatever seat in the house he wanted but he wanted to feel apart of the crowd and feel it from a real simply lover of music
Even after all these years Grunge / The Seattle Sound is still my favorite genre of music. The songs were easy to relate to. They dealt with real life and were not centered around picking up groupies and partying like most of the hair band songs were in the 1980's. When you look at songs like Girls, Girls Girls, She's my Cherry Pie and Nothing but a Good Time they cannot hold a candle to Smells like Teen Spirit,, Outshined and Down in a Hole. There's no comparison. .
Kurt looked very at peace and happy in that short little clip
I dunno id say alice in chains and soundgarden were a step above the rest of the bands around at the time. In terms of heaviness, innovation, melodically etc.
Jared Kosikowski melodically? From an unbiased standpoint, wouldn’t you say Nirvana took the cake on that one?
@@benjamindevlin4057
No. Kurt Cobain wrote good vocal melodies, but he was limited as a musician - Chris Cornell and Jerry Cantrell were much more advanced as both players and songwriters.
@@benjamindevlin4057 well nirvana was more raw around the edges. Sure they had melodic songs but in terms of the musicianship aic was amazing live as well as soundgarden. They were more accomplished musicians. Nirvana had more punk in their roots while obviously aic veered towards metal which generally speaking is more precise. But that just my opinion.
@@hinjurock I agree.
@@hinjurock lol more advanced songwriters my ass
Dave's comments on Superunknown are so spot on and honest, it's encouraging to see that someone like him who is also incredibly talented and could have looked at Soundgarden as competition, was instead able to appreciate what they were and had done with that record.
Pretty Noose is my favorite soundgarden song. Fell on the black days and the day i tried to live are also great
Dallas Boring News the guitar riff to pretty noose is insane. In a good way.
I love all of those songs but Blow Up the Outside World is my fav.
5 years ago I was stationed in England and my Sergeant mentioned how he missed his favorite singer Chris Cornell. I looked him up and having grown up near Seattle I knew so much of his music but never actually knew who he was. Mind blown. I was instantly hooked. RIP Chris Cornell/ Chester Bennington 🤘
All the love for Dave in the comments gives me a reason to stay alive ♥️♥️♥️
Dave is the man on so many levels. So respectful, so talented, so well-spoken, such a great example of a good musician all around. Would love to just hang with the guy
I love how Dave's smacking that guy with his hair and you can tell the guy doesn't mind at all lmaooo
I grew up with Soungarden. First heard them when I was 8. Still my favourite band and was really sad with Chris' passing.
Soundgarden is the best😭
I was just playing Fell On Black Days on guitar while Dave Grohl was talking and then the song came on.
Thanks dude who filmed Dave that was cool to see Dave rocking out like a regular fan!
I discovered nirvana on my own
But sound garden and foo fighters my dad introduced me to those bands
Max Palmer that's cause does band suck nirvana. gave em all careers
@@robertdefex9544 what did you try to say?
@@robertdefex9544 no band tries to copy nothing
Those were the day’s some of the best times of my life back when you didn’t have to pay a arm and a leg to see your favorite band
Do people realize how BIG an endorsement it is for Kurt to admit he likes a band that is popular, soundgarden is literally the only band that got famous that I’ve heard him say he liked
Which tells you a lot about Kurt.
@@allsystemsgo8678 IT's an interesting point and counterpoint to Dave. Kurt is a scene guy, he loved the raw underground sound of bands doing it themselves and clearly wasn't a fan of anything he felt was music to be popular. Dave is a pure muso, enjoys the craft and can enthuse about anything. I think it;s very intersting though that Kurt mentions Soundgarden alongside mudhoney and Tad because sound wise they are so different. You can literally hear how Tad and Mudhoney influenced Kurts music but there's no real song by Nirvana apart from maybe something like Heart Shaped Box that resembles a Soundgarden song. Which I guess goes to say how fucking amazing Soundgarden are because it can be recognised by someone with such a very specific taste.
@@allsystemsgo8678 good point
Every one who came in contact with Cris had to like him he was a musical geniuses and thats that end of story he was the first to get a big contract first to get signed to a big label the first to do a world tour the first because he was best it was not luck or an acident that Chris Cornell was the FIRST @ LAST@BEST to come out of Seattle
@@MikeSmith-cn6ub Alice in Chains were first with a hit on MTV though
Something very special happened with the music scene in Seattle in the 90's.
Dave is such a down to earth legend. Every chance he gets into the mosh pit with everyone else to rock on with other big bands that he likes.
I remember listening to Badmotorfinger when it came out and it blowing my mind. At the time I didn't understand them getting lumped into the grunge scene because to me it was (and still is) a metal album.
Cornell would say otherwise
@@Zeke1379 Oh really did you know him personally?
@demoncleaner331 yea just listen to what he told the audience when he got an award for metal song or album its on TH-cam
Kind of cool to see a rockstar appreciating another rockstar! No beef,no competition! Just a genuine appreciation for the other guys talent!
If Kurt approves. Than they’re good
yep, Also are you the same FBI that's on meme pages?
BB80Delta I was just joking about how snobby he was about what is good and what isn’t
4:30 - Dave grohl at a soundgarden concert in the crowd. So down to earth.
How can you not like Dave Grohl?
Not a fan of Dave "Hollywood" Grohl
Because I don't like the music he creates.
That full toothed smile that is on every other page of every printed or online paper/magazine.
Trulysarcastic44 there is a difference in disliking the music and disliking the person
Luis Hernandez whats Hollywood about him? Because he isn’t whining about girls or being angsty? He’s 50+ years old and has kids. Like holy shit people can’t be edgy and emo forever. He’s the face of modern rock and roll more than anyone else.
forever glad that my mom is still stuck in the 90s because i dont think i would be here today without 90s grunge music
Ironically, Black Hole Sun has always been one of my least favorites from that album...Spoonman, Superunknown, Fell on Black Days, Like Suicide..god every song is a fucking masterpiece.
The Day I Tried to Live, 4th of July
@@mr.noride7226 4th of July is so underrated
Seeing Grohl in the crowd jamming out with fans to Soungarden just shows how he is not above anyone. A true rocker at heart. Love it.
very cool video. beautiful tribute
You gotta love Dave's humble perspective... Always minimizing his accomplishments And heaping praise on others... To me Dave in the food fighters are one of the most relevant rock band still making music... My absolute favorite musician
Please forgive my auto correct.. Food fighters is funny though
Dave & Kurt...Chalk & Cheese!
Dave just has a zest for life, is easy to love and enjoy other musicians and just life in general... Just check him out in the crowd getting into to it like any other ticket-holding fan..So down-to-earth, such a happy heart!
Kurt, on the other hand, was always determined to be miserable, like some badge of honour, and took perverse pleasure for being "too good" for things most people enjoy..
Back in the 90s I didn't really like Soundgarden but all these years later I realized how awesome they really were. RIP Chris Cornell and Soundgarden
FYI: Kurt didn't mention Alice in Chains because at this time Jerry Cantrell had said that he thought Kurt was a horrible guitar player.
He wasn't wrong.
Still made better music than Jerry somehow..
@@MrShahid0072 Idk man. Nirvana was my favorite band when I was growing up. When In Utero came out that's all I listened to. But the older I get, the more i love AiC and Soundgarden. Maybe I just got burned out on Nirvana? I feel like AiC and Soundgarden wrote more intricate, thought out tunes.
@@OGStinkywizzleteats I think Soundgarden are great but AIC has a body of work I don't really care for. Kurt had a knack for vocal melody. The songs were not profound or anything or aspired to depict pain like Aic but they were musically just better IMO. Aic don't have the tunes. They have great instrumentation and a passionate vocalist but their tunes are boring to me. In the end they are obviously incomparable and are just lumped into one genre for marketing sake. But Nirvana is iconic to me and yeah time passes and you just don't feel that strongly for any artist like you use to. It's just how out minds are wired. I personally think Radiohead is the ultimate band of the 90s and none of the other bands come even to close to the beauty that is OK Computer. I like Aic..I am just not a huge fan. I don't listen to Nirvana anymore either but I do realize our minds seek novelty and the old stuff we once thought was great would never seem that great in the present. So there is always a bias when talking about music like that. But yeah.. Nirvana were exceptional and history will always remember them IMO.
@@MrShahid0072 I can see your point. Although AiC spoke to my soul. Maybe it's because I struggled with addiction, and that was a large part of Aic's lyrical content. Their vocal harmonies definitely don't appeal to everyone. As far as Radiohead goes, I'm in agreement. They are fantastic musicians. I would add STP to this list as well. They wrote catchy and very listenable music as well. They didn't get the credit due at the time because they weren't Seattle boys, and came at the tail end of grunge.
Chris. kurt and Eddie have those voices that just took you into another place everytime you heard them sing. DAVE WAS IN SUCH GOOD COMPANY
I would love to sit down (or stand up) and jam with Dave Grohl one day.
The fact that Dave Grohl actually wants to brave the fans and enjoy Chris Cornell in concert like a real fan speaks volumes about Chris' talent. I'm sure Dave could have been back stage ..... but he wanted to be front and center and jam like the rest of us.... i don't blame him.
"Much more melodically sophisticated than anything any of the other Seattle bands were doing" I know it just comes down to opinion but how can you honestly say that when the same year Jar of Flies by Alice In Chains came out? Listen to Nutshell and tell me that it's not one of the most melodically sophisticated songs you've ever heard.
Ked Viper
LOVE Nutshell- a great song
I think hes talking about his experience and feelings about the music at the time. Maybe he was comparing it to the things that came previously, or maybe he just likes the song allot, who knows.
Not sure if I can nail down if Alice or soundgarden to me are more important, but I can see what Dave was saying. Look at how all over the place superunknown is. Fresh Tendrils? Did that sound like anything else? Alice's EPs threw everyone for a loop for sure but didn't have the crazy time signature changes and differing song structures like soundgarden.
Badmotorfinger and Dirt are two of THE most important albums of all time to me so I'm not biased by any means to one band over the other.
ianmason2003 Grohl looks like a HAMSTER!!!
AiC is so fucking awesome and some songs of In Utero n even some Mudhoney early songs are pretty melodic and sophisticated but not like Superunknown, never
My all time favorite band & Audio Slave Right
Rage
Foo fighters
This is the music I've loved my 20's through my life to 25 yrs later. Never will I enjoy anyone better!
So did Kurt actually hear Black Hole Sun? Or was it just Dave and Krist? I wonder what Kurt thought about it!!??
This live concert sounds amazing, and Chris's voice sounds fantastic.
Dave the last standing cool Musician form Seattle. The ever lasting classy gentleman Dave.
cloudchaser07 He's from Virginia
Technically, Jerry Cantrell is the last one *from* Seattle, but Eddie Vedder is still standing too. Don’t they count?
Dave is from Virginia.grew up in DC.moved to seattle in his 20s to be in nirvana
michael newbill But Nirvana became big in the Settle scene
Eddie Vedder id say is still relevant.
I started listening to grunge music hardcore in early 1994 when I was 11 years old and grew up worshipping the Seattle scene along with all other good 80s and 90s bands. So glad I got to see most of the bands live and meeting a lot of them too. Dave Grohl is a great humble guy and I love that he’s talking about soundgarden in such a positive way. Although I truly believe Alice and chains and Nirvana were just as good as Soundgarden. Either way music will never be that good again. So glad we have it forever. Thank you to all the great musicians dead and alive who made it for us to enjoy.
They forgetTom Morello. Such awesome guitar player.
Zura Janai Katsura da
Soooo true one of my fav bands ever Audioslave
Zura Janai Katsura da what the hell does that have to do with soundgarden and nirvana?
I hope Grohls around for a long time! We’ve lost so many heroes from that GREAT era
The thumbnail is misleading i thought Dave was arresting Chris
Anybody at Lollapalooza 96 in Pownal VT ? Soundgarden did black hole sun and the sky went black and thunderheads rolled in. I was near the big lighting fixture, center stage out 2 or 300 ft. Thought it was going to be struck by lightning. That band was outstanding, Black hole not my favorite tune, but it was magical that day. I remember being awestruck by Cornel's voice. It was real. All of that amazing majesty from the albums was real all he had to do was open up and let it come ripping out. A legendary rock singer I will miss.
This is the difference between Dave and someone like Kurt or Billy Corgan. Dave isn't at all insecure about himself so he's not afraid to spread love to other musicians. He is arguably the most talented out of any of them but isn't so judgemental. I see Kurt as the Regina George of grunge and Dave is Gretchen.
What a stupid analogy!!
Love me some Dave Grohl My fellow DC native Drama City represent!! Still miss Nirvana as good as Foo is
The best sound of all rock music genre came out of Seattle. Hands down . Sonically they blew away all rock music
.toppled Guns amd roses which out did LED Zepllin.
