I cry every time Dave tells a story about Kurt. It just breaks my heart every time.

I love how he has a great relationship with his mother. His mum seems like one of the cool mums that all your friends in high school get along with.

Watching this makes me want to have Dave as my tour guide in Seattle. That would be the most awesome tour.

Man, he should make a film like that, giving us a tour of the places that mattered to him here.

This dude has lived the ultimate life as a musician. Toured the world by the time he was 20. Joined a band that was primed to be one of the best ever and achieved total respect as a musician. Then a second chance & has again got great success & has jammed with almost everyone anybody would ever want to jam with. And I heard he's worth 200 million.

Close to 300 million, reportedly. Couldn't ask for a nicer guy.

The way Dave Grohl told his story, you can feel it. It's like he's not endorsing a city or whatever. It's like he's talking to you personally. Amazing person. And yes, Seattle is great.

Every time I see or hear Dave Grohl I am more and more impressed, he really is an awesome guy.

Agreed. Love him. He's amazing.

I lived in Seattle from 1996-2005. Worked for gaming companies as a 3D artist. I started listening to more and more grunge rock and my son was in some hard rock bands. I filmed his shows and got to check out the Seattle vibe. It does become part of your DNA. Loved hearing this story.

I love listening to his stories! You can see he really cherishes those memories. I would love to see Seattle someday! Thanks Virginia Grohl for investing that $120 bucks----you changed the history of music with that decision....one so many of us will forever be grateful for !

Seattle in the early 90's was the coolest place on Earth. The music, the movies, the TV shows, the sports teams. Seattle had magic back then. It's still a great place but cant compare to back then. Truly magical.

I agree. I visited in 2004 summer and you could tell that the Magic you’re speaking of was definitely there in the 90s. I wish I had been able to visit like 10 years earlier. Still, it was a beautiful trip. Also loved the areas north of Seattle.

If there's one movie that best encapsulates 90s Seattle, it's Cameron Crowe's Singles.

dave grohl probably has the best and most diverse life anyone could ever have. and he is dealing with it all so well

He's not just talking about music at the end, he's talking about everything.

Sometimes is just the right place at the right time, with the right people

I absolutely love this! I lived in downtown Seattle right after high school in 1992. This was so the vibe. Very grungy, Starbucks had barely started up downtown. It was very small town vibe. Walking around downtown with a coffee in the middle of the night, going from basement to basement socials. Birkenstocks and flannels. Lol Oh God! Brings me back! And the rain on the cement. I called it a cement jungle because of all the foliage yet roads and sidewalks everywhere. The lights of the city at night made you think about your life. And just being able to afford a salad ha ha. That was a luxury. I walked pikes street market and remembered getting a croissant and thought this is the life! Oh and newspapers in Seattle were dated a day ahead. That always threw me off. Totally different world. Now, it’s a nice place to visit, but I’d never go back. The rain gets to you.

did anyone else cry?

The other drummer Dave mentioned that was playing for Nirvana at that 1990 show he attended upon arrival in Seattle was Mudhoney's Danny Peters.

Dave Seattle would have you back in a heartbeat and I live in Ireland

I could listen to Dave talk all day. The way he tells stories just draw you in and you connect with what he’s saying.

What a beautiful soul

It's so sad what the city has become

"Sometimes in life you have to do what's best for you". that's such a great advice

Great documentary. Those were the days. It was a movement..unintentional- just like Dave said. Glad to have been a part of it.

Wow!!! So beautiful and heartfelt. Can't wait to go there for my first time this September. From overcast Ireland to overcast Seattle

Much love from the Pacific Northwest to Foo Fighters & Mr. Dave Grohl

Mr Grohl is such a damn gem. Bless ya Sir.

Kurt was a force of nature, and his departure was both untimely and definitely palpable. NIrvana's fame had a momentum of its own, and it's only natural to revisit those places and experiences to try to reach some sort of understanding. You had a real connection with your appreciative fans and hugely influenced the rock scene, which is a great tribute.

This makes me want to visit Seattle.

I live in Olympia and visit Seattle often, and also catch myself driving slow at places that I have memories of there. I think this was a great story.

Thank you Dave for everything !!! Cheers and Hugs from Ensenada BC, Mexico !!

He is such a great storyteller... man.... we all can sit down and listen for a hours!! I saw all his documentary and this is one of the best!!! He is my hero! Always!

So beautiful and heartfelt. Dave is an amazing Storyteller. Whether he is singing it or telling it, it still tugs at the heart strings.

I visited Seattle twice in the last two years and have fallen in love with the city. Watching Dave just makes my love of the city greater. I can't wait to live there.

I could listen to him forever.

Dave, Seattle is waiting for you to come back!

Seattle is just amazing! And anytime I see images of Kurt and Dave I also think about the beautiful Olympia, WA.

Love this SO much... his narrative encapsulates all of us PNW '80s kids who explored Seattle in our fearless 20s, and ate that city for breakfast on the regular. We loved, watched, and supported his (and all the other) up and coming bands that pumped the blood into the heart of Seattle: grunge tunes, and the love that came with it. What an epic, epic adventure, and a killer time to grow into ourselves. Thanks, Dave. #NailedIt #MuchoLove

I loved hearing Dave’s story. The joy in his eyes when reflecting on his time in Seattle and with Nirvana is evident. Btw, thank you, Mrs. Grohl, for the advice and money you gave to your son that day! 🤗🤗

Love you Dave and thanks, thanks for the soundtrack of my life!

Met Dave at a thrift store in Tacoma nearly 30 years ago. Gonna meet again this summer at Safeco Field in Seattle !

Just beautiful.

Min 3:05 "Chris and Kurt were like Children of the Corn me up at baggage claim" 🤣🤣🤣🤣

How can you not love Dave?

Finally. Stories are being told. Dave has always been so private when it comes to talking about himself.

This was a great video, thanks Dave! His love for his adopted city is palpable! 😍 Wish I'd have followed my gut when I was 25 and moved to Seattle in the mid-80s!

This might be the coolest tourism campaign I've ever seen. And I'm not even a Foo Fighters fan. Whoever greenlighted Dave Grohl reminiscing about Seattle for this is a genius. And incredibly brave...

love you Dave, we all miss Kurt amd Krist too..Ive been to Seattle a couple of times...love it!!

What a beautiful clip

Damn I cried...

What a talented humble bloke he is.

This was so well produced, in addition to Dave’s fantastic storytelling.

We love you Dave!

Amazing video ! Feels like I’m sitting in front of him. ❤what a great soul. Thank you Dave Grohl for the memories and all of your beautiful music. #nirvana#foofighters♥️

Seattle needs you back.

Fascinating and Dave has a smart mom.

This video comes all the time before Nirvana/Foo Fighters videos, I rarely skip it.

Lived there for 25 years. The Seattle he's describing, the Seattle from the past is long gone. It's a completely different city now and in many ways, not for the better. It had a vibe and a personality in the past that has been lost. The soul of what Seattle used to feel like is just gone and it's sad.Instead of neighborhoods with character, like Ballard, it's all just been hipster-ized and looks like any other west coast city like San Francisco or Portland. Such a bummer.

Amazing confluence of story telling and production. This is a wonderfully produced video. Time to up my game. Darn! Great job to whomever put this together.

My favourite video directed by Dave Grohl. Love the way you talk about those days and Kurt and life in Seattle, Dave. Thanks a lot! 😀☺😸

I would like to visit, and live there for a period of time. The only thing that makes me apprehensive is the lack of sun, but I want to go back to playing music, and hang out/jam w my heroes...

Born and raised in Seattle and it's not a matter of us taking you back Dave, you've always been welcome!! It's about when you'll come home. I can't wait to see you at safeco in September! I've literally travelled the world to see you guys but haven't yet seen you at home. Saw you guys at Fuji rock and I went to London but it was the cancelled wembley show after you broke your leg

Brilliant and sincere.

Amazing story. Really enjoyed this. If you're reading this....thanks Dave. You're a real inspiration....you and Nirvana ✌

THIS IS THE FIRST AD I HAVE NOT SKIPPED IN 5 SECONDS. IM VISITING SEATTLE NEXT. well done.

Gave me the chills!

I actually clicked through from an ad on another video. This was a really well put together wee documentary. Thumbs up.

C'mon back, we will always welcome you brother. We here love you Dave, come home.

Many of the things he mentions is why I moved to Seattle a week after Kurt died..It was 100% different then Southern CA and at 23, exactly what I needed at the time. I only lived there a year but it was a time I will always remember. That period in time cant be re-created but it was fun- first time being out on my own, so many new friends and experiences... .....Im gonna go wear my flannel and Docs now.... im 48 now and Id love to take my kids back someday for a visit to the Emerald City someday soon..

I really appreciate how he gives credit to Seattle. So many people have forgotten about that history before Seattle was “discovered”.

It's like having Children Of The Corn picking you up from the airport. 😂😂

I love you before.... I love you today... And will love you forever...

I cried..

Dave Grohl is a major Badass. Love that guy.

This was amazing

There are certain people that I just love listening to talk. Dave Grohl is at the very top of that list. A brilliant, thoughtful & engaging storyteller. Who knows how to keep his stories fresh & give them a vibrancy that keeps you captivated. He paints a beautiful picture when he talks, and sharing my same obsession for music keeps me coming back to him weekly in search of new interviews he may have participated in. A kickass dude, who is genuine to the core.

Dave cuenta cómo llegó a Seattle, y demuestra cuan feliz fue en ese momento y como lo marcó su amistad con Kurt. Si Kurt es inolvidable para nosotros, él lo lleva tatuado en su corazón. Grande Dave, te amamos.

Dave Seattle will take you back any day! - Miss not having you here, not too many Seattle🎸🎶bands left here anymore. Thoroughly enjoyed your storytelling, you crack me up!😆

Loved this!

Love this story, things good or bad can’t help but change us. Glad you came through it and living your best life 🎸🤘

Please make this a series and have Jerry Cantrell and Sean Kinney from Alice in Chains next!

I’ve always dreamt about Seattle and this just made me wanna go even more….

you American guys who loved music should know Nirvana made a big deal worldwide. Nirvana changed everything in this small country's culture(South Korea rock scene). for more than 25 years still Nirvana make a big effects to the world. Now many rock fans here find FF and Giant in the Trees. Seattle you know marketing way.

91-94 was the peak of rock music.

This can make me cry

The video editing has bits & crumbs of "reality bites" that contributed to my immersion to Dave's experience as he tells his story...

Thank you

Very well created. Well done to everyone involved.

This is the best ad that I ever seen in KZread.
