With everyone united in the goal of becoming the biggest rock band in the world, bad behaviour that risked sabotaging everything was not tolerated. There was some danger/drama in 2001 when drummer Taylor Hawkins ended up in a two-week coma after a heroin overdose in London - an incident that he said scared him straight - but outside of that, the Foos appeared to have been squeaky clean. The night before John Lennon was shot, singer Darby Crash died of a heroin overdose.
Foos guitarist Pat Smear was not only a touring guitarist with Nirvana back in 1994, but in 1980, he’d been a member of an LA punk band called The Germs. Dave Grohl had no intention of reliving the trauma that followed the death of Kurt Cobain.
One of the knocks against the Foo Fighters has been that they’re not dangerous or consumed with drama.īut that’s been very much by design.
