![]() ![]() What sleep Grohl does manage to get tends to be overstuffed with dreams. He saved time on wardrobe selection, at least, slipping into his usual black jeans, along with a thrifted black Yokosuka Beer T-shirt and brand-new mustard-colored Vans. He woke up at 5 a.m., and already spent an hour editing his upcoming memoir, The Storyteller, before driving one of his three daughters to school. “And I would fuckin’ just sit until six o’clock in the morning watching a bunch of stupid shit on YouTube.”Īt the moment, Grohl is cruising around Los Angeles’ Westside in a black Ram SUV the car company tossed his way after he did some ads for them. ![]() “I actually tried to get back into smoking weed last year, thinking it would help me sleep,” Grohl says one morning in mid-June, just before the Foos’ first shows since Covid-19 hit. He thinks of his schoolteacher mom grading papers late into the night, and gets to work. There’s always some kind of project he’s excited about: a documentary series he’s directing, a Foo Fighters album, a book, a tour, sometimes all of the above. Five hours a night, maybe, which qualifies him as a “total fuckin’ insomniac.” He just can’t wait to get back to his waking life, is the thing. Even a hospital visit for caffeine-induced chest pain a decade ago couldn’t persuade Dave Grohl to ease up on his manic coffee consumption, and he still doesn’t sleep much. ![]()
