« Chez certains, c'est le goût qui provoque des réminiscences ; pour d'autres, c'est le regard ou l'odorat. Dans mon cas, c'est le son, jouant comme une mixtape jamais achevée en attente d'être envoyée. [...]Montez le son. Tendez l'oreille avec moi. » Dave Grohl, l'un des musiciens les plus brillants de sa génération, nous livre un portrait authentique, brut et honnête d'une vie extraordinaire faite de moments ordinaires. Toute mon histoire regorge de souvenirs : ses tournées punk effrénées avec Scream, son entrée chez Nirvana puis l'effondrement brutal du groupe, la création des Foo Fighters et ses tours du monde en tant que père de famille...
Avec un humour percutant et un regard lucide sur la célébrité, Dave Grohl nous raconte ses histoires comme il écrit ses chansons : avec toute son âme.
À propos de l'auteurDave Grohl est un musicien, chanteur, réalisateur et auteur-compositeuraméricain. Batteur du groupe Nirvana dans les années 1990, il fonde celui desFoo Fighters quelques années plus tard. Il y est aujourd'hui encore chanteur etguitariste, et écrit la plupart de ses morceaux. -
So, Ive written a book. Having entertained the idea for years, and even offered a few questionable opportunities (Its a piece of cake! Just do four hours of interviews, find someone else to write it, put your face on the cover, and voila!), I have decided to write these stories just as I have always done, in my own hand. The joy that I have felt from chronicling these tales is not unlike listening back to a song that Ive recorded and cant wait to share with the world, or reading a primitive journal entry from a stained notebook, or even hearing my voice bounce between the Kiss posters on my wall as a child. This certainly doesnt mean that Im quitting my day job, but it does give me a place to shed a little light on what its like to be a kid from Springfield, Virginia, walking through life while living out the crazy dreams I had as young musician. From hitting the road with Scream at 18 years old, to my time in Nirvana and the Foo Fighters , jamming with Iggy Pop or playing at the Academy Awards or dancing with AC/DC and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, drumming for Tom Petty or meeting Sir Paul McCartney at Royal Albert Hall, bedtime stories with Joan Jett or a chance meeting with Little Richard , to flying halfway around the world for one epic night with my daughtersthe list goes on. I look forward to focusing the lens through which I see these memories a little sharper for you with much excitement.
