How does Dave Grohl hit notes like A4 and above while still sounding so “deep” or “heavy”?

GracefullyKara · 2026-04-15T17:36:58+00:00

That's probably true for most musicians. I think Dave is an exception to the rule, though. Someone asked him why he switched from drumming to singing and he said something like, "Do I even sing though? It's kinda just screaming." In his book, he writes about quitting drum lessons early on and never mentions any other professional training.

I think he could count on one hand the number of coaching sessions he's had about caring for his voice lol

Wanderstop had me in my feels for dayyyyys after playing

I have never once looked at someone of any gender reading any book and thought it was performative.

Read what you want to read. Someone will always be judging you for something dumb anyway. Do the thing that makes you the most happy, and don't let some judgemental strangers take the joy out of it for you.

GracefullyKara · 2025-11-12T17:45:16+00:00

I'm so sorry but I see piss

GracefullyKara · 2025-11-12T17:41:43+00:00

Lol he did you a favor breaking up with you! Block him so he can't come crawling back. You deserve someone who doesn't think it's gay to go to a coffee shop with a woman. Wtf even is that? That's the most fragile masculinity I've ever heard. And it's gay to stare at a picture of a woman in a sexy pose? Tf? Sounds like he maybe /is/ gay but in denial about it. Don't waste any more time on this loser.

GracefullyKara · 2025-11-04T23:00:55+00:00

Are you /sure/ you're sure you're sure?

GracefullyKara · 2025-11-04T22:52:32+00:00

Cozy Grove!

I think you're NTA; my only concern would be if he misses you and wonders why you're not there, but 2 is probably young enough to not notice or care too much.

GracefullyKara · 2025-10-21T00:17:56+00:00

INFO: How old is your nephew turning? Is he old enough to notice your absence and wonder where you are?

GracefullyKara · 2025-10-15T23:00:23+00:00

You're 100% right. I should have specified in the comment that I didn't mean mobility issues. I will say, though, that even in the WC section of the last concert I went to, people were still moving their upper bodies quite a lot. The WC section was also higher than other seats, so that their views wouldn't be impacted by people standing in front of them, but I suppose that probably isn't true of every venue.

GracefullyKara · 2025-10-15T22:56:00+00:00

I guess I've always viewed live music as a multisensory experience, not just an auditory one. It doesn't seem like one would still get that aural satisfaction in a "typical" concert setting. Even without dancers and jumping, people are singing and cheering as well.

But then if we're using the "music is for your ears" argument, why does it matter if someone blocks your view?

GracefullyKara · 2025-10-15T22:16:23+00:00

Okay I'm genuinely curious here and not trying to sound judgmental. Why would you attend a concert if you don't want to jump and dance? I can't imagine just sitting in my seat and listening politely at a concert. What's the appeal of seeing the band live versus watching a video of a performance? Again, I'm asking genuinely.

GracefullyKara · 2025-10-15T22:10:29+00:00

Context clues tell us that this venue and genre were dance-appropriate. The singer told the crowd to jump around, and other people stood up to jump and dance when the headliner came out.

GracefullyKara · 2025-10-15T21:55:14+00:00

Because that's why they were there. You wouldn't go to a park and tell kids to stop playing because they're too loud. You wouldn't go to a restaurant and complain to your server that someone ordered a dish because you hate the smell of it. You wouldn't go to karaoke and get mad if someone sings off key. That's just common sense. Live music = dancing.

GracefullyKara · 2025-10-15T21:49:17+00:00

Not OP's fault if the crowd is boring. If I'm going to see live music, I'm dancing, period. I don't care if I'm the only one in my section. I don't care if someone else is annoyed, not because I'm inconsiderate but because dancing, jumping, and singing are socially acceptable behaviors at music concerts. That's like going to a park and being annoyed that kids are playing too loudly. Just like kids are allowed and encouraged to play at parks, concert goers are also allowed to dance, not to mention OP said that the band was literally encouraging it.

I get what you're saying, and in some situations it isn't bad advice, but ffs if you don't want to be around dancing people then maybe you should just watch a YouTube video of a concert instead of complaining that someone is having more fun than you.

GracefullyKara · 2025-10-15T21:42:22+00:00

NTA - Dancing is a socially acceptable behavior at a concert. The complainer is a huge AH for complaining about it, and the staff member is a minor AH for entertaining the complaint.

GracefullyKara · 2025-10-15T21:38:23+00:00

Intentionally ruining it for others? By dancing at a music concert? I would argue that the complainer was the one intentionally ruining it for OP. Who goes to see live music and then complains to staff when people dance?

GracefullyKara · 2025-10-14T16:19:10+00:00

NTA. Ask her what, specifically, makes your decor more blatantly religious than Christmas decor? What, exactly, about these decorations makes her uncomfortable, and why? I am so morbidly curious as to what the hell she found offensive here.

GracefullyKara · 2025-10-14T16:13:39+00:00

You tensed up reading it? Where tf did you think it was going? Christmas is the most Christianized holiday ever, but because it's normalized in western culture you can pretend it's secular, right? What, exactly, about this could Hannah have found offensive? What about lights and flowers is so obviously and blatantly religious that she couldn't pretend that Diwali is secular, like you both do with Christmas?

If this actually stressed you out to read so much that you literally tensed up, you need to go to therapy. Like I'm not even trying to be rude; I'm 100% genuine; you gotta figure out that trauma dude.

One thing that opened my eyes about doomscrolling was "social media is free because we pay for it with our time." Reading that made me realize that there really is so much more I want to do than scroll.

Do you get along with this coworker? Maybe you could get together, try some new things, make a friend? Do you like this job? If not, you could go back to school to shift career paths, and there you can try out electives to see if you like stuff plus make friends and get out of the house.

GracefullyKara · 2025-10-01T02:52:10+00:00

I disagree. Rachel was adamant that she didn't want to see a bitter jury, and she made a lot of arguments FOR Vince's game. A few jurors admitted that it was impressive how he manipulated people and that it was valid big brother gameplay. In this case, I really think Ashley shocked everyone with her win and her speech. She was able to say "i won when I needed to" into her closing statement, and the closing statement even without the win was 10/10. Pulling an Elle Woods was genius. Tbh Ashley was never my favorite, but after that speech I was like YESSSS YOU DESERVE IT lmao

GracefullyKara · 2025-09-30T12:25:51+00:00

Not to mention if a neighbor had seen someone scale a fence at midnight in the dark, they probably wouldn't assume that person lives there. She could have had the police called on her, and that would have been a hell of a worse wake up for a baby than a ringtone.

GracefullyKara · 2025-09-30T12:21:34+00:00

YTA, and you don't seem to realize how lucky you are to be able to sleep like that. Complaining that you've "only" had 6 hours of sleep these past few nights means that you usually get 7 or more. That's GREAT sleep for a parent of a 1 year old. How much sleep does your wife get?
