Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl on music talent shows: 'Don't get me started'Rocker Dave Grohl, of the Foo Fighters fame, has revealed that he dislikes televised music talent shows because it gives the message that all it takes to become a well-known and respected musician is to stand in front of a panel and perform once. Speaking at a recent TV Critics Association event, the superstar explained that people are being shown that fame is something that can easily be achieved and that becoming a musician or finding success in the industry is actually quite simple: "I don't want my kid to think that the only way you can be a musician is to stand in line at a song contest audition, and then wind up having a bazillionaire tell you you're not a good singer. Don't get me started. To me, that's not what music's about." Follow us: @Pressparty on Twitter / Pressparty on Facebook. Watch Grohl talking about Nirvana below:
