The link wasn't working so I am pasting this somewhat long story he told. He's funny.
“So, we were at a party and Paul was there. We were hanging out, having fun. There was a piano in the room. Paul gets up and starts playing a song. Amazing… And he’s cool, man. He’s fun to hang out with. So he gets up on the piano, he starts playing the song on the piano. It was in the house, it was in the living room. He’s blowing everyone’s f*cking mind. New song. Wow. New Paul song! Weird.” “Then he finishes the song, and everybody looks at me and they’re like, [imitates British accent] ‘Go on Dave! Play a song!’ And I’m like, ‘Wellll, I don’t know how to play piano!’ I don’t know know what to do, man. I can’t play the f*cking piano. And then I look around, and Paul McCartney is left-handed. All of the guitars are left-handed… Shit! God, I’m screwed! And also, I maybe smoked a little pot [Laughs]. So I was already challenged enough…”
“All of a sudden, Taylor Swift stands up! She’s like [imitates Swift’s voice] ‘I’ll play a song!’ I’m like, ‘Oh, thank god, Taylor Swift’s here. F*cking Batman when you need him. Wow.’ So she gets on the piano and I think, ‘Okay, I’ll jam with her.’ So I pick up one of Paul’s left-handed basses off the wall. I’m super high. ” She starts playing, I’m just trying to figure out how to play along to what she’s doing. It’s kind of like one of those nightmares where you’re running backwards… She was playing this really beautiful thing on the piano, and I look at my wife like, ‘Wait, I know this f*cking song.’ And she was f*cking playing [Foo Fighter’s song] ‘Best of You’!
As if I wasn’t high enough. That shit blew me to outer space, man. So I felt obligated to sit next to her and duet.”
And I'll be damned. He DID IT, man!
Why? What's wrong with two dudes hanging out and jamming?
Swift's music has more edge to it than Grohl's
So he's in LA and goes to a party. The way he tells it- he was admiring a guitar on the wall of this house when a scruffy homeless looking dude comes up and says "you play?". So he goes yeah man and spends 15 minutes telling him about his garage band in New York. So he turns to the guy and says "what about you?" The guy in a complete deadpan looks at him and says yeah my band is called Foo Fighters and I was in Nirvana. My friend nearly died from embarrassment but said he was a really cool regular dude.

no jewelry?
Yet Grohl is still more relevant than you are...You know, in the bigger scheme of things.
