one last thing before i quit..

And he's fixated on his music. He emerged from the bitter, messy wreckage of his last band, carving a career that has outlasted - and outclassed - that of all of his peers. "I never imagined in my wildest dreams that I'd be here ten years later," he says, drawing deep on another Parliament Light and shaking his head. "I used to swear I'd retire at 33 - you can't be in a rock band if you're over 33! Well, my knees hurt a little bit more now but I'm not done yet."
- independent magazine, june 2005

Kay so I've been in love with the foo fighters since april of 1997, people! And as time went on, Dave Grohl, MY IDOL OMG WHA??, started saying he was going to retire at 33. then it became 35. then it became 37.

But guess what? January 14, 2008 has come. Dave Grohl turned 39 years old. And guess what? HE'S SO NOT RETIRING ANYTIME SOON.

so anyway, yeah. dave grohl. birthday. 39. not retiring. woot woot.

one last dave quote to finish this:
Lyric you wish you'd written:
"Do do do/ Do do do do," Third Eye Blind, "Semi-Charmed Life"
