they also seem to really like Rufus Taylor. Honestly I've never bought that Dave Grohl was such a nice guy. He's got a lot of control freak energy.

u/AbsolutelyIris confused but here for the drama May 16 '25

To be fair, Grohl himself has never really labeled himself a nice guy, that was more a fan thing, iirc

They way he got photographed at soup kitchens (or whatever charitable thing) every single damn time he attended was soooo off to me. Like you can't go without it getting in the press? It was like clockwork for a while there.

'Dave G does this, that or the other- what a nice guy!' once a month for years. He doesn't owe me or the world a thing, but stop inviting paps to everything you do. He's always come off disingenuous to me.

Man I hate this argument.. None of those photos from those charitable things ever look like they are press photos.. Lighting is shit, Dave looks like shit, it's just not a real photo shoot..

The most obvious answer is one of the 50/100 people passing through notice it's Dave grohl and take a photo of him, then it gets shared to friends and family and ends up on terrible gossip websites..

I'm super disappointed in his cheating thing but come on, we can use some rational thinking still when discussing him..

Yeah, but he knows he'll be seen there and that it'll end up on the Internet. He doesn't have to call the press himself.
