"Sometimes there are nights when I question myself about what I'm trying to do here," Grohl says. "But in the end, playing rock music and being in a rock band are about the most fun things I can ever imagine doing.

This is one of the few things in life that I have, extreme passion for. There are obstacles everywhere, but you have to climb over them." "I slept on Kurt's floor for eight months before we actually went down to record Grohl says. "Three of those months we didn't have a window in the living room, and this was during the winter. It was the first time ever in my life that I'd been so far away from anyone or anything that I knew." After "Nevermind" was recorded, he says, the group's ambitions remained modest: "We wanted to not have to sell our equipment for food." The harsher and more adventurous 1993 release, "In Utero," solidified lnm.nii.i-.il i i i.r. -J Foo Fighters, from left: Pat Smear, Dave Grohl, William Goldsmith and Nate Mendel.

ARTS CRAFTS read as if Grohl were determined to keep the Cobain-aholics from reading too much into them, and the singer also notes that most of the dozen songs that made the final cut on the album were written before Cobain killed himself. Instead, the record's emotional power comes from the music itself, the canny way in which Grohl's boyish voice rides the rough currents of overdriven guitar and walloping drums. In the way it melds melody and mayhem, noise and nuance, the soft-and the shattering, "Foo Fighters" evokes Nirvana. But Grohl does more than just sound like his old band. He evokes its brilliance with the way he packs pop hooks into every cranny of the arrangements.

The music doesn't just assault the senses, it's bursting with so many well-executed ideas that it dazzles them. Setting himself apart In 1990 Grohl got the call from Nirvana, and instantly established that he wasn't like all of the group's other drummers. That is, he wasn't a fill-in, a stop-gap or simply a problem. Though Grohl, Cobain and Novoselic instanSy hit it off musically, with Grohl's huge yet savvy rhythms and tireless energy pushing the group's sound to a new plateau, the drummer had no inkling that the group's 1991 "Nevermind" album would become one of rock's milestones. 6 AFTs 1101 ARTS Oil a lot of things since Kurt died, about heroes and celebrities," he says.

"When it comes down to it, you're talking about a human being. People try to ask me questions about Kurt in interviews and I say, 'How long have I known you? I met you five minutes ago and I don't know you. Say your best friend died and I met you five minutes ago, do you tliink I'm going to ask you about it, and then go tell Grohl says he was able to cope by throwing himself into his music, recorded with producer Barrett Jones down the street from his house in Seattle in October 1994. He worked so quickly on recording vocals and over-dubbing guitar, bass and drum parts that he had no time to feel sorry for himself, or anyone else for that matter. "These 15 songs, you have to understand there was not too much involved," he says.

"I wrote the lyrics really quickly, and the recording schedule did not allow for a lot of sitting around and brooding about things. It was quick, painless." If there's a shortcoming on the "Foo Fighters" album, it is the slight-ness of some of the oblique lyrics.

CLEMENS Of THIS WHY II I VjmJjjJ THIS WLIK1ND By Greg Kot Chicago Tribune To appreciate how fulfilled Foo Fighters frontman David Grohl is you need to understand how emp-; ty he felt in April 1994.

That month, Grohl's Nirvana band-mate and friend, Kurt Cobain, killed himself, And throughout the bleak "summer that followed, the Nirvana drummer wondered if he would ever play music again. It was a private struggle, because in the media satura-; tion that followed Cobain's death, the three surviving members of Nirvana drummer Grohl, bassist Krist Novo-. elic, guitarist Pat Smear were conspicuous by their silence. Since then, "Foo Fighters" a critically acclaimed album that Grohl wrote, sang and played nearly every note on has gone on to sell nearly a million copies. The band of the same 'name singer and guitarist Grohl, jJmear, bassist Nate Mendel and drum-' mer William Goldsmith has gelled into one of the hottest concert tickets of the spring, and that includes a sold-' out stop at the State Theatre Saturday.

-And Grohl finally is addressing what happened in the last two years. Numbed by grief In a recent interview, Grohl, 27, how, after Cobain died, he spent weeks at home in Seattle too numb to do anything other than "watching 'Jenny Jones' in the morning, drinkmg coffee at noon and closeting myself in the house at night." While the world clamored for Co-ijain gossip, the Nirvana survivors re- treated into mourning and gritted their Ueeth. Their views on the sudden de-imise of their band remain closely guarded. "Practically every time some-Jhing's written about it, Krist and I will get on the phone and scream," Grohl -says. "But you have to realize that one of the things that Nirvana represented "was true soul and being a real human being.

One of the things about the music that was so powerful was the honesty and the integrity. So why on Earth would anyone think we'd come Dut and change and join this tabloid circus mentality? "I've made a pact that till the day I die, I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever tell anyone the way I feel about this," Grohl says. "It's'no one's business. And I feel terrible about it, because I have as many unanswered questions as -anyone else. But, e'est la vie," Grohl is a bright, cheerful conversationalist.

But like Novoselic who has emerged in the post-Nirvana guise of a political lobbyist fighting for artists' free-speech rights in Washington state he hardens when the death of one of his closest friends is broached.
