Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl Explains The Band’s Decision To Fire Drummer Josh Freese
During a recent interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music, Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl explained the band’s decision to fire drummer Josh Freese. According to him, the group had a “great time” with Freese and the decision “didn’t happen overnight.”
Grohl further discussed the band’s time with Freese:
“In those six or seven months, as a band, we talked about what to do next, a new direction, and thought, ‘OK, let’s call Josh and let him know that we are going to move on with a different drummer.’”
“We called, as a band, all of us called, it wasn’t just me. Basically, we called Josh, and were like, ‘Hey man, that was awesome. That was such a blast, thank you so much, but we are going to move on and find another drummer.’
After that, we didn’t make a press release, tweet anything or do interviews. We didn’t say anything. Since then, there’s been a lot of talk about it, but I think Josh said it best when he said that he didn’t feel our music really resonated with him, and that’s really important.”
