Rock icon turned Storyteller Dave Grohl wrapped his all too brief book tour with a tour de force one-man show at the Ford Theater in L.A.
One artist holding a stage for three hours is Laurence Olivier level stuff. Okay, maybe Olivier meets Bowie, because Grohl snuck a few songs in there, Of course his playing drums to Nirvana's"Smells Like Teen Spirit" was the most viral moment of the tour. And he performed a few Foos songs,"This Is A Call,""My Hero,""Everlong."
Turns out Grohl might need to be the next rock star, after Springsteen, to hit Broadway. Because his pacing, his delivery, the way he paused, the performance, the authenticity, the honesty, the emotion were a revelation. This wasn't a guy going up there reading some stories from a book. The three-hour journey worked as a complete story, even if Grohl, by his own telling, had 20 minutes to squeeze in the last 20 years near the end thanks to curfew, so it's hard to select certain stories as standouts. Obviously his talking about Cobain and the dire consequences of fame was haunting and sadly spot on.
