Report: Dave Grohl to make his film directing debut for the big screen. He will make a documentary about, Sound City Studios…

Dave Grohl, most famous as the frontman for the Foo Fighters, and former drummer of Nirvana, may have years of musical experience, but he has been on and off in the movie industry as well. He’s got some acting experience through his own music videos, and he made cameos in a few movies/TV shows as well. I think he even directed a few videos for the Foo Fighters himself. Well, Dave is finally making his own film. He’s doing a documentary about Sound City Studios, a legendary studio that Dave owns himself. Many rock legends over the years have recorded in it.

See the website for his film, here.

I’m sure it won’t be a world wide release, it’s probably going to be released independently, but the film sounds cool.

Report: Does Dave Grohl have the hots for Frances Bean Cobain? Frances says no, and thinks her Mom should be banned from twitter…

This never ending feud between Dave Grohl and Courtney Love, has gotten much worse. Courtney Love accused Grohl of having an affair with, Frances Bean Cobain. She says Dave Grohl never hit on her, and says Courtney should be banned from twitter.

More on the story, here.

I don’t believe it’s true either. Dave Grohl is a married man himself and has children too, I believe. Plus, Dave is way too busy with the Foo Fighters that he won’t even have the time to get into this drama. I’m pretty sure Dave and Frances Bean are close friends, but not lovers.

Courtney is delusional and she needs to shut her mouth. She’s just a jealous woman that the Foo Fighters career is going somewhere with their music, while her career fails. I give kudos to Dave for staying out of her drama though. He should give her a big fat lawsuit and shut her up for good.

Cool Video: Dave Grohl kicks out fan for fighting at Itunes Festival concert…

Usually when kids cause trouble at rock concerts, the bands usually don’t do anything and let the security take care of it. Well, Dave Grohl decided to take care of it himself at the Itunes Festival, when a fan was fighting with other kids. Dave stopped the band in the middle of a song and started swearing and yelling at the kid. He told the fan to get out of his show.

Dave is the man for this. He just cared for his fans safety and he didn’t want this idiot to ruin the fun. Enjoy this hilarious video. I think this was real. It wasn’t an act or scripted or anything.

Thought: What would Kurt Cobain think of the Foo Fighters?

I’ve been listening to a lot of Nirvana’s “Reading Festival” and “Bleach’s 20th edition”, both albums are amazing as Nirvana always is. After listening to these albums, I’m sure everyone wonders what it will be like if Kurt Cobain is still alive.

If Kurt was still around today, Nirvana will still not be together ’cause before Kurt’s death, Nirvana was about to break up anyways.

You just wonder what Kurt would think of the Foo Fighters music. Do you think he would love it or would he hate it?

Me? Knowing Kurt Cobain’s musical style, of the type of music he likes. He mostly liked dark punk music, stuff like the Meat Puppets to the Pixies. Mostly stuff that we never heard of back in those days.

I would think Kurt would hate the Foo Fighters. He might think they are too pop and silly for Kurt to listen to. Don’t get me wrong, I love the Foo Fighters, I think they are great. The Foo’s are different from Nirvana. Kurt would feel uncomfortable with Dave’s songwriting. Sorry Dave, but I think Kurt is rolling in his grave about the Foo Fighter’s music.

It’s just something I can’t see Kurt getting into and can’t see him enjoying it.

I think Kurt would like Courtney’s music with Hole and her solo stuff, ’cause I believe Kurt helped launched Courtney’s career. Hole was already formed way before Kurt’s death. I also read that Kurt collaborated with Courtney in Hole on a few songs for the single, “Ask For It”. Knowing Kurt Cobain’s sense of humor, I’m sure he would make fun of  the Foo Fighters.

Kurt was an amazing singer and songwriter. Even though all of his songs in Nirvana had a few easy chords for each song, they were still amazing to listen to ’cause Kurt had his own style writing these simple songs.

Nirvana deserves to be Hall of Famers, definitely, but their first single “Love Buzz” still has four more years to go to be eligible. They are getting close to 25 years, don’t worry, they’ll be inducted soon.

Thought: I am angry at Activision too, aw man, they totally ruined Kurt, big time…

The reason Courtney Love, Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic is not happy about the use of Kurt Cobain for “Guitar Hero 5”, is not that they put him in the game without their permission. Courtney agreed to put Kurt in the game in the first place, she gave them permission. She gave them permission for Kurt to sing Nirvana songs for the game. She didn’t give them permission to use Kurt to sing songs by other artists.

This is why Courtney, Dave, and Krist are pissed off and on a warpath against Activision about it.

I totally agree with it. It’s totally embarrasing and sickening to have Kurt singing songs by other artists like Bon Jovi, Billy Idol, etc. I’m like, “What the hell is Activision thinking? The company are a bunch of fucking morons”. This is humiliating for Nirvana fans.

I am so glad not getting the game. I too am upset and dissapointed with Activision, and because of this, I will no longer by anymore future released Guitar Hero games.

I will still keep Guitar Hero III, Guitar Hero: Aerosmith and Guitar Hero: Metallica, of course, but I will no longer support Activision. They might ruin the upcoming Van Halen game as well.

This is so wrong having Kurt Cobain, singing songs by other artists, that is not Nirvana. So now you see why they are upset. I can’t blame ’em.

See the video below, this is terrible.

Report: Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic also upset at Kurt Cobain use for “Guitar Hero 5″…

Well, it looks like Courtney Love is not the only one in the music industry upset at Activision with the use of Kurt Cobain for “Guitar Hero 5”. It looks like Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic, the surviving band members of Nirvana, are pretty pissed too.

They aren’t really upset at Kurt Cobain being used for the game, however, they are just pissed that he could be played by other artists by unlocking a secret of the game.

The Associated Press reports:

Wow. Activision better do something fast or they’ll be battling in court with Courtney, Dave, and Krist all at the same time!

I’m glad I’m not getting the game now!

Report: Krist Novoselic announces, no more unreleased Nirvana music…

Krist Novoselic, the former Nirvana bassist, announced the shocking news, that he and Dave Grohl will no longer release unreleased Nirvana songs. The song “You Know You’re Right”, will be the final unreleased track. Of course, we’re all sure the band wrote tons of songs that they didn’t release for their albums, they will only be kept for themselves, not for the public.

Courtney Love have been feuding with Krist and Dave for years over the rights of releasing Nirvana songs. Krist reveals that the surviving members of Nirvana has buried the hatchet with Courtney Love and now in good terms with her.

Krist discussed more of Nirvana’s history with the Legacy Project.

More on it here:

That’s a good thing the band is doing. Keeping the band’s legacy to themselves and keeping Cobain’s wishes is a pretty smart thing to do. I actually don’t like it when the music industry releases unreleased tracks of dead musicians. Like Jimi Hendrix or Bob Marley for example, they shouldn’t release their unreleased material. Keep them hidden and kept secret. Don’t ruin their legacy.
