Dave Grohl on 'KISS Guy' and why he invites fans on stage to play guitar with the Foo Fighters
Back in 2018 during a Foo Fighters concert in Austin, Yayo Sanchez, AKA "KISS guy," joined the band on stage to play the song "Monkey Wrench."
Dave Grohl says the idea has been a "twisted fantasy" for him since childhood.

@@TheRealCaptainFreedom I’m not even into his music, but he’s a gem in the entertainment industry. He’s basically the Keanu Reeves of music.
It's been nine years or so, but I did a music project with Dave Grohl that spanned about a week. Had never met him, we were strangers. But once we met, he treated me like I had been a good friend for years...and I treated him the same way, because...this is Texas. Was a lot of down time with all of us hanging out, cooking brisket, playing guitars on a back patio. No cameras around, no one documenting it. Just basically a group of regular guys hanging out. So, when you see Dave onstage, in interviews like this, being a cool guy and doing kind things for people...well, that's just Dave. That's how he really is. It's not a gimmick. It's not an act for the cameras to catch. He is that kind, that genuine, that real. Hasn't been often, but we've kept in touch. I sent him a text telling him I would see him that night, here in Austin. He told me to give away my tickets, as he'd leave all-access passes at the door for me. And he did. So that night, I got to see Kiss guy from the side of the stage, and his guitar tech and all the crew were just laughing in disbelief. He doesn't always do it, but he has extra Gibson guitars onhand, in case he gives one to someone he brings onstage. Like the 7 or 8 yr. old boy he got up one time. There are people who aren't the biggest Foo Fighters fans, but they're Dave Grohl fans, and that's why they go to their shows. And over time, they do become fans. As kids and even as adults, we've all had that dream of getting invited onstage.And that is why he does it. He makes people's dreams come true. Same way he pays homage by inviting legendary musicians and singers onstage when he can. Bringing his daughter onstage, because he's just a proud papa. So, is Dave really the coolest, nicest guy around? Yeah..yeah he is.

@@dwainsellers6453 I've worked with, done shows with a lot of famous musicians over the years. The difficult ones really make you appreciate the very kind and easy-going ones, like Grohl. If that opportunity was to come up again, I'd jump on it. You do it for the love and fun of it, and the money is just a bonus. So, when people ask if Dave Grohl is really that cool and nice in person, onstage, the way they see him or the way he's portrayed? Or is it just an act? That's when I'll chime in and tell people what you see is what you get. Dave is the genuine article. Another thing I like about Dave. Who always gets paid first? The crew. Everyone who works so hard behind the stage or behind the scenes, to make the Foo Fighters look and sound good. And out of the band, Dave is the last to get paid. Because that's just how Dave is.

I wouldn't say he's "musician's musician". I don't think other musicians/players look up to him like he's the best of all. He's very likeable, relatable and charismatic guy, but not musician or artist beyond belief. Other musicians look up to guys like jimmy page, james hetfield, paul mccartney etc, and player's (I mean players that are virtuosos at their instrument, which dave IS NOT!!!) look up to guys like steve vai, guthrie govan, victor wooten etc. Dave is common folks musician, like he said himself on this interview too. He's not gonna be remembered as a musical genius through generations. I don't mean to sound belittling or dismissive, I too like him and his music.

Even without the limelight. Having had that dream in his youth, so in turn making that dream a reality for others when he's in a position to do so, is just being a great human being. :) I always had a dream of just sitting on a chopper model motorcycle and maybe revving it a little bit when I was a little kid. So when I got my own I decided "if anyone ever asks or shows interest I'll gladly allow it." Sadly noone asked in the 9 years I had it, but ah well. ^^;;

Dude…it’s still exceedingly rare to get the opportunity to do that. Even if there’s several bands that bring a fan up sometimes, or even if the6 did it every show, that’s one lucky ass fan that night but there’s a thousand dudes watching from the cheap seats that are dyin watching somebody else get to be up there when it should be them. I think the original point was that there’s a helluva lot of fans out there that dream of just what dace was describing as his fantasy as a kid saving the day because he knows all the songs when the drummer suddenly cant play. But there’s only a comparatively tiny number of lucky bastards that gets to actually jump up there and play with his heroes, and it’s extra cool of the few musicians who do this for their fans. And no, I don’t want a list of bands that have done it because it doesn’t matter, it’s a small minority and the demand for such an opportunity will forever far exceed the supply.

Haha, I played in bands in north America. Playing sweet gigs at clubs and bars. Then i started playing in eastern Europe ( klezmer and balkan folk music) in kafanas ( restaurant/bar) where the musicians walk around the tables, joking around playing music, taking requests. Sometimes just faking it. I never had so much fun. Going back to north America i found the musician culture to be very insincere and egotistical. And patrons of gigs to be so concerned with the image of being at a live show than actually being at the show. Also when playing in the balkans, you get paid by the patrons through tips. And that in itself was huge everyone becomes involved. Totally different culture. I miss it. Haven't been able to play since covid lockdown. I went to a open mic near me( after working on the soundtrack for a serbian feature film.) And played some serbian music in 7/8 at 260bpm, a very tough piece. And got silence and blinks. Haha. Then a woman come up and played Wagonwheel (poorly) and every was ecstatic. It was then i realized, my skills are completely useless in north America. I just finished learning a bunch of romanian folk music and Italian tarantellas. And while practicing, i wonder why. No one wants to hear it. Its pretty darn depressing, Thankfully I play because i love music and not for adoration. I can and do play all styles.

And what's even cooler is he doesn't even like to be called a Rock Star. He told a story of why he wrote There Goes My Hero.

Grohl is the most genuine and decent rock stars ever. Dave Grohl is what I always wanted to be, but he has the talent to do it. So happy for him and all of his success!!
what i find inspiring and telling about dave in this clip is how when he is talking about himself getting up on stage with his "favorite" band in his fantasy dream as a kid, as he then describes how that gives him the idea that the people he gets to come up onstage must feel a way that is similar since they are coming up to play with a "band that they enjoy". its a real subtle showing of his humbleness even after years of being a world renowned band leader and driving force of rock music.
This is why he's the greatest. He never forgot what it was like to be the fan.

I don't know if there is someone ever got on stage in history of rock and outperform the band like that kid did. Just the way he was able to improvise and have stage presence like that on the spot is just insane.
Dave Grohl and Sammy Hagar are the two coolest people in the history of music. Both those guys are simply fans who got to live the dream and have never, for one second, stopped thinking how lucky they are. Which is ironic, because they were never lucky, they worked their asses off for it.

One of the coolest moments for the aspiring Rocker! Dave bringing up a random fan shows his humbleness.
A perfect example of how a powerful rocker can be both humble and a compassionate gentleman. David is an awesome human being.
This was my dream as a kid too with the Smashing Pumpkins. 15 concerts later of theirs.. no stage for me! But! I still practiced for that moment in my room, everyday, rocking out with my bass dreaming of standing beside them all on stage, singing backing vocals and playing the songs I loved more than the air I breathed.. The first time I saw the "Kiss Guy" footage.. I cried. And cried. Like, ugly cried. My heart was bursting because that young man was having his moment with the Foo Fighters.. to see the pure joy and delight - was so overwhelming.. his nightly practices to their music paid off.. I've had the honour of meeting Dave Grohl and I can tell you first hand, that man is the kindest, most down to earth rockstar on our planet. What you see and hear, is genuine. He's just THAT great. I hope he never ever stops sharing that love. Thanks for the great little interview! ❤
"I feel like they sound" ........... every musician understands this statement
Not just a great musician...he's an entertainer and a great story teller as well!
That point about the B-52S just made so much sense.
Dave is soo awesome, he even got emotional at the end, voice breaking a lil, like his fantasy as a fan relived through kiss guy
Dave is so in tune w/the fantasy of being a rock star at a young age. I remember as a 13 year old, I went out and purchased a mic stand, an SM58, I put tape/picks along the mic stand, had a little holder for a slide...and I learned Journey's Captured front to back. Back in 1981, I was thinking at any moment I'd get a chance to jump up on stage and play. Of course, had I done anything in the industry later on, that would have been a great story. ;)
Yes Dave, we have ALL had that same fantasy! Every kid who ever loved rock and roll has had that fantasy and that's one of the many things that ties us all together! God bless you for making that dream come true time and again for so many people across the world! I'm 50 and STILL have that dream!
I grew up playing country and blues until at 14 I discovered ACDC and music was never the same. I love Dave for the human aspects of things, he knows "EXACTLY" what's it's like to feel that surge of awesomeness , and for him to allow someone to come up and play is just one of the most kindest things any human could do for another so with that, I love ya Dave your seriously my kind of guy. I've had this same desire as Kiss Guy and even though I'm 56 today ( Still feel 25 lol ) and have made music my whole life since the age of 10 when I got my first guitar, I have "NEVER" been to a concert and I don't know why. The best reason I can think of is just because I wanted to be the singer so bad , I would just feel terrible , jealous, and full of envy to not be on stage performing. I've done a lot of stuff for an audience and my style is James Taylor, JOHN PRINE for sure, Jim Croce and a whole list of country guys from the 80's and 90's. I still dream of one day being known because my whole I've been told by family, friends, and most certainly audiences that I should be in the public eye singing and playing so we'll see I've still got a lot of time and we never know when a dream will come true so I'll keep on dreaming. Anyways RIGHT ON DAVE for allowing Yayo to live the dream even if it was only for a minutes , you're a very special stand up guy Cheers from Merritt B.C. ( The country music capital of Canada ) Jan 13/24

Foo shows are fucking epic. Saw them in Cape Town, my wife got us tickets for my birthday a few years back. What a night! Come back to South Africa, Dave! We miss you!
Came across the video of kiss guy getting to live that dream the other day. The way Dave speaks about when he saw/heard the B-52s, and it awakening something in him, I realized that's exactly what I just felt watching kiss guy get up on that stage and absolutely KILL it. I played guitar on and off for years, and its been at least 2-3 years since I've touched mine. But watching that video, I want to get back into it. Not so that I can someday get on stage with my favorite band, but just so I can play, and rock out as hard as kiss guy did. The wide spread leg stance that he was in, headbanging and just having a great time, that's what I wanna do
Foo Fighters aren't my favourite band at all but Dave Grohl is one of the greatest people. Absolute legend
Oh shit the B52’s!!! Dave is truly my spirit animal
What a genuine guy. You can hear how emotional he is about it at the end in his voice.
I could sit and talk with this guy for hours. Dave Grohl is an amazing soul. I don’t know him personally, but through his music, I feel like he connects with his fans like no other. He is truly a class act. Dave, keep feeding us life through your music. What an honor to be alive in these times and experience this.
Rumor is, that thing around his neck isn’t a necklace. Its an o-ring to keep water out of the battery compartment.
I've met quite a few stars in music & film, and most times it's not a big thing for me, they're just people. But there are a few I would like to meet, and Dave is #1 on that short list. He is really the most humble rock star I think there is out there. Very rare. 1 He has Sound City, and keeps it just the way it's always been. 2 He does this at his shows, letting fans actually come up on stage and play with them. Nobody else in any band I've ever seen would even dare to think of doing so. 3 He has single handedly brought back the word MOTHERFUCKER as a term of endearment! And it's my favorite word. I hope one day I can play Razor with them. Be safe out there people!!
Seeing and hearing Foo Fighters inviting fans on stage is pure joy. Seeing and hearing fans playing is just plain beautiful, but seeing and hearing Dave explain, it's full circle.
The interaction with the pic shows both of them were ready for this moment for their whole lives
And that's what makes him one of the real G.O.A.T.'s
A legend.

@@bagenius5970 From time to time I have the "don't you know who I am" attitude so yeah its ego lol. Ur right about the self love and confidence part. It's hard to explain over the internet. You have to literally be me to understand it.
If Dave invited a fan up on stage during a Nirvana show I think Kurt would walk off the stage …. It’s amazing how teenage angst clouds the fear of death and how as you mature you loose that initial core of artistic integrity so that you allow everything you worked for to turn into Roger Daltry’s middle aged rock camp …. Great job!
The best shows are a conversation between artist and crowd ... It's wonderful of them to share their stage.
I've never met Dave grohl but I would love to. I play music now. I've toured many countries and I've extensively toured this one and he may not realize how much of an influence he's been on so many of us. My first band was a nirvana cover band I did back in 1990. I was 10. This man continues to inspire us and make me happy to be a fan. 😁
Among many other reasons... I really love that Dave offers people to experience their dreams of being on the big stage. Respect level 1000!!!
A million peoplw watched this. And only about 17.000 cared ti hit the like button. What was not to like? This was heartfelt, wholesome and down to earth.
Keep paying it forward Dave. It's cool you are grounded enough to not forget where you came from and the thought process behind it. Awesome..
Dave always looks like he’s having the time of his life.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
As a drummer this is a life long fantasy of mine.
Yayo Sanchez delivered one of the most astonishing performances I have seen in my entire life. Incredible. Once in a lifetime moment for both the band and him I guess^^
Dave is one of my favorite rockstars of all time. In my mind, he proves you can be a living legend, and a genuine great guy. Kudos to him...
Not the first musician to bring fans on stage, and likely won't be the last. But definitely the most dedicated to allowing his fans to live their dreams on stage with him. What a great guy!
Dave has never forgotten where he came from or the path he took to get there.
Im so grateful Dave, his wife and girks were our neighbors when they owned their beach house right across street from ours. Besudes being an anazing musician hes a great guy with a hige heart and so so kind hesrted. My german shepherds loved him and his family and anytime theyd come up for the weekend our digs woukd go absolutely crazy lol. Easy to see why as dave aa this energy about him thet draws you in. Grareful to call him my friend😊❤️👍
Humility & passion = Shed loads of talent.
Dear Dave grohl and foo fighters. Thank you for giving talented kids to be with you on stsge and express themselves no othet bands do that and thats how new bands get their start....foo fighters inspiration
Dave is so awesome. Everything he does it seems turns to gold. I just finished his "The Storyteller" book I couldnt put it down. I love you Dave.
He finds a way to make everything absolutely inspired. What a prime example of a guy never losing touch. Love Dave Grohl.
Dave the music industry needs more artists like you. You are a class act in my opinion.
One the best vids on the internet. I’ve watched the kiss guy performance many times 😂
KISS guy is us, out here in our bedrooms, garages, sheds... wherever we practice, wherever it is that we dream of a stage and a screaming audience, that is us. I like to believe that KISS guy took a little piece of each of our dreams and aspirations up there with him. We cheered for him because he's fucking awesome, but we also cheered because KISS guy on stage performing with a rock GOD like Dave Grohl means that there's hope for the rest of us no matter how small and invisible we may feel right now..... Keep that dream alive and ROCK ON!
