The Storyteller: Tales of Life and Music by Dave Grohl
5.0
Wow, what a book. I loved every minute of this story. While the basis of the memoir revolves around Dave's path to becoming a world renowned artist, there is an emotional layer to the book that I did not expect. Highlighting his experiences in Scream, Nirvana, and Foo Fighters, Grohl includes raw elements of the human experience that any reader could relate to. From his estranged relationship with his dad that made him become a doting and ever-involved father to how the loss of friends along the way shaped him as a person, The Storyteller is raw, real, and heartfelt. If you're a fan of any of the bands Grohl is in (Nirvana and Foo Fighters is what initially even drew me to this book) this will be a real treat. Getting to hear wild stories from Grohl's time in both bands first hand gave me a new appreciation for artists and musicians alike. Normally, audiobooks are my least favorite way to consume any type of book but, getting to hear Grohl narrate his own life story made me feel like I was listening to one of my dad's friends tell me some crazy shit they got into, and I loved it. Highly recommend LISTENING to this!
