As a kid of the 90s and a teenager in the 00s, I enjoy Nirvana and the Foo Fighters. It's interesting to hear Dave Grohl talk about all of his experiences from growing up to becoming a rock star to the musicians he's met along the way.

Easily the best autobiography by a musician I have read.  His music is the soundtrack to my own life.  He is an inspiration

I was unfamiliar with David Grohl and his journey as a musician. This book we an interesting look at the past, as well as at the way he grew into and around music. I liked hearing about the vibrant punk scene in DC, the evolution of Nirvana into the mainstream, and eventually how family became a part of his journey as well. 

He’s got a distinct voice, not always the smoothest read, and at points I found myself having to reread for clarity, but overall the stories live up to the title of “The Storyteller”
