-->'''Dave Grohl:''' "You know, I can see some garage band who depends on every single sale just to keep themselves going complaining about Napster, but when you're Lars Ulrich, a member of the biggest band on the planet, whose share of the last concert tour your band put on came to something like $80 million, I think you need to shut the fuck up and stop fucking whining!" (Naturally, CBS bleeped the profanity, but it was quite obvious what was being said.)

* When Dave broke his leg at a show in Sweden, [[http://pitchfork.com/news/60248-dave-grohl-plays-entire-foo-fighters-show-on-giant-light-up-throne/ he designed a throne to sit on during their 20th Anniversary show so he could play]]. He admitted, however, he was high on Oxycontin for the pain when he drew it, as evidenced by the fact that it's made of guitar necks (a la the Iron Throne from "Game of Thrones") and has the notes "Lasers and shit" written at the top.
