kimmel, musician dave groll from nirvana and the foo fighters. have a good night >> dicky: from hollywood, it's “jimmy kimmel live”! tonight -- dave grohl. billy porter. and music from violet and dave grohl & friends. and now, jimmy kimmel! [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: hi, eveyone. hi, i'm jimmy. i'm the host of the show. thaenlg thanks for watching it. thanks for joining us at our headquarters here in hollywood, l.a., california. hollywood got a little shout-out from the former president of the united states today. apparently he's been thinking about the oscars down there at mar-a-lago. and today he committed those thoughts to paper. “statement by donald j. trump, 45th president of the united states." [ laughter ] somebody. >> somebody brought this into

room, oh boy, this is good to be good, what is it? “what used to be called the academy awards, and is now called the “oscars”, a far less important and elegant name, had the lowest television ratings in recorded history, even much lower than last year, which set another record low. if they keep with the current ridiculous formula, it will only get worse, if that's possible. go back 15 years, look at the formula they then used, change the name back to the academy awards, don't be so politically correct and boring, and do it right. also bring back a great host. these television people spend all their time thinking about how to promote the democrat party, which is destroying our country, and cancel conservatives and republicans. that formula certainly hasn't worked very well for the academy." then that's the end. [ laughter ] then he passed out in his oatmeal. [ laughter ] this is what happens when you're banned from social media. instead of tweeting like everybody else, you have to fax a statement two days after everyone forgot the oscars happened. [ laughter ]

[ applause ] the academy in an unusual move fired back this afternoon with their own statement. they wrote, "statement by the academy of motion pictures arts and sciences."p[ laughter ] "what used to be called the president of the united states and now some guy called don, a far less important and elegant name, has the lowest approval rating of any president in modern history. your hair is ridiculous, your tan is ridiculous, everything you say is dumb. go back 15 years, get a new reality show, pretend to write another book, and go back to bed. p.s., our show sucked this year because you gave everybody covid." [ cheers and applause ] the end. very well said, well put. donald trump's idea of the perfect oscars show would be three hours of jon voigt praising his two seconds on-screen in “home alone 2.” but he does make some valid points. and so we put our heads

together this afternoon to come up with an oscars show that would have been more entertaining for donald trump. these are nominated movies trump would have probably enjoyed. “the father -- who never showed me affection.” [ laughter ] “ma rainey's black bottom that i spanked with a forbes magazine”" [ laughter ] “promising young woman -- 130 grand to keep her mouth shut." [ laughter ] "the trial of the chicago seven layer dip." [ laughter ] and "grab her by the octopus teacher." [ laughter ] [ applause ] funny, donald trump basically is the oscars. old, bloated, completely self-involved, and obsessed with gold. [ laughter ] he's them. at the white house today, president biden had no thoughts on the oscars. but he did give us some new guidelines for wearing masks. >> starting today, if you're fully vaccinated and you're outdoors, you need -- and not in a big crowd, you no longer need to wear a mask. >> jimmy: that's good news. where are we on pants, are those still required?

[ laughter ] that wasn't all, the president had a pest message for the millions of americans who still have not been vaccinated. >> for those who haven't gotten their vaccination yet, especially if you're younger or think you don't need it, this is another great reason to go get vaccinated. now. now. >> jimmy: all right, you don't have to get weird about it. [ laughter ] [ applause ] >> jimmy: now. calm down. this mask mandate has been -- it's been particularly tough on people like me, who have very kissable lips, right, guillermo? >> guillermo: oh, yeah. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: so to recap. if you're outside, not in a big group, and you're fully vaccinated, you don't have to wear a mask. if you're outside and not vaccinated, go back inside and get vaccinated. okay? [ laughter ] and brush your teeth too. i'd like to bring that back. [ applause ] this new, loosening of our collective muzzle could not have come sooner for tucker carlson of fox news. he's very upset. america's favorite man-karen is

so concerned about -- [ laughter ] children being forced to wear masks, he's encouraging other like-minded individuals to get authorities involved. >> children being forced to wear masks outside, that should be illegal. your response should be no different to your response being someone beat a kid at walmart, call the police. child protective services. keep calling until someone arrives. what you're looking at is abuse, child abuse, and you are morally obligated to attempt to prevent it. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: tucker is, of course, very sensitive to the needs of children, since he is one himself. [ laughter ] the guy said nothing after sandy hook. now he want you to call the cops. there's a kid with cotton on his face! >> if it's your own children being abused, act accordingly. say your kid's school emailed you to announce, every day your sixth grader was going to get punched in face by a teacher.

how would you respond? that's precisely how you should respond when they tell you your kids have to wear a mask on the soccer field. >> jimmy: right, spoken like someone who got punched in the face on the soccer field every day in sixth grade. [ laughter ] what kind of analogy is that? who's at home nodding along with that? is it possible that tucker carlson is actually a top secret sasha baron cohen character he's going to reveal to us? it's the only explanation. at least the mypillow guy was a crackhead. [ laughter and applause ] >> jimmy: tucker has no excuse. the pillow man will be here tomorrow night. [ laughter ] mike lindell is excited and he's been busy hyping his appearance on our show. >> in the meantime, tune into "jimmy kimmel" wednesday night. my friends and stuff -- we're going to have watch parties, we're all getting together, like watching this event on tv. >> we are. we've already invited people over. melissa's making dips and chips and all kinds of things like we were watching the super bowl.

>> jimmy: all right. [ laughter ] well, i'm glad melissa's making chips. i don't know how she does that. but the only thing this will have in common with the super bowl is one of the key players appears to have suffered a traumatic brain injury. [ laughter ] i don't know. are you ready? >> guillermo: i'm read. >> jimmy: mike lindell said people are going to try to kill him. >> guillermo: i hope he's bringing pillows for everybody. >> jimmy: he is. >> guillermo: okay, good. >> jimmy: you're missing the point, i'm not worried about you getting pillows, i'm worried about me getting killed, pillowed. >> guillermo: don't worry, i'm here, nothing will happen to you. [ applause ] >> jimmy: i'd be safer if the pillows were guarding the show. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: in a way one is, yes. [ laughter ] i don't know if you heard about this. a battle is bringing between billionaires jeff bezos and elon

musk. their companies, blue origin and space x, were both up for the same multi-million dollar government contract to build a ship that cantake astronauts to the moon. don't we have that already? anyway. last week, nasa awarded the contract to elon musk. now jeff bezos is challenging it. he filed a protest with the government accountability office, accusing nasa of moving the goalposts for bidders at the last minute. musk, who owns spacex, fired back with a tweet that said, “can't get it up to orbit lol.” [ laughter ] that's the guy who's hosting “saturday night live.” [ laughter ] a feud between jeff bezos and elon musk is how we all die, right? [ laughter ] they're eventually going to get nuclear weapons and we will be killed. i have an idea. instead of astronauts, let's send jeff bezos and elon musk to the moon. [ applause ] that's right. first person to get a jar of peanut butter delivered there gets the contract. loser has to stay on the moon forever. winner, too. [ laughter ] we had some disappointing news today for thrill-seekers and

drug-takers. for the second year in a row, the burning man festival, and the annual running of the bulls in pamplona, spain, have been cancelled. the mayor of pamplona said that with covid, it's just too dangerous to do something that dangerous. [ laughter ] so they're not. going to push it to next year. it's always interesting to think back on what we were doing and thinking in the thick of the virus last year. when we didn't know how long it was going to last, when we are we were hearing all sorts of mixed messages. and with that said, it's time to look back at the news from one year ago this week, in a new edition of “this week in covid history.” >> this week in covid history, as we end april 2020, americans are doing dandy. >> an effort is under way to make hand sanitizers taste worse so that children and adults won't drink it. >> okay. maybe not dandy. speaking of drinking disinfectant, say hello to president trump. he's full of pep.

and the buck stops -- elsewhere. >> we inherited a very broken test. a broken system and a broken test. i could tell you nancy pelosi was dancing in the streets in chinatown. even professionals like anthony were saying this is no problem, this is late in february, this is no problem, this is going to blow, this is going to blow over. it could have been stopped. but people chose not to stop it. >> talk about a blame duck president. meanwhile, the head of the corona task force visits sick patients in the hospital. why isn't he wearing a mask? >> that's a great question, i'm glad that you asked me. >> thank you. >> it was actually after he left mayo clinic that he found out that they had a policy of asking everyone to wear a mask. >> mother knows best. so when will things go back to normal? >> i think by june a lot of the country should be back to normal, the hope is by july, the country's really rocking again. >> he's ready for white boy summer. at least for now, covid is the only thing we have to worry about. >> murder hornets. >> murder hornets.

>> giant murder hornets are here in the u.s. >> oh for [ bleep ] sake. this has been "this week in covid history." [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: well. we've got a good show for you tonight. billy porter is with us. [ cheers and applause ] as is -- you see that van pull up, that's dave grohl. [ cheers and applause ] dave directed a new documentary about bands doing their early tours. dave's driving the van the too fighters drove around in on their first tour. there he, dave grohl. [ cheers and applause ] that is a fire lane. dave grohl is parked in a fire lane. when we come back, we'll get to see dave grohl getting towed. we'll be right back! today let's paint with behr ultra scuff defense... so that you can live that scuff-free life. honey, i'm home from my really important job! scuff defense.

>> jimmy: hi, welcome back to the show. tonight, from “pose” on fx. the multi-hatted billy porter is with us. tomorrow night -- oh, yeah, you should watch the show tomorrow night, justin theroux will join us as will mypillow ceo mike lindell. mike will be in-studio, provided the people who are chasing him don't get to him first.

[ cheers and applause ] ♪ >> jimmy: how are you doing? >> i'm all right. >> jimmy: boy, you really keep busy, don't you? a lot of guys will sit around. you're always up to something, whether it be barbecuing or making movies. you directed this movie. >> i don't do well on vacations. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: i guess not. >> and honestly, you know, the last year that we spent at home not being on the road, i think i've probably been busier than i ever have in my entire life. >> jimmy: yeah it seems like you have. i mean, i know we don't know exactly what you're doing day to day. but you have things coming out all the time. including this documentary that, first of all, i can't believe no one has ever done this before. because it's such a great subject. and you got so many great people. and you put it together so beautifully. the idea, as i mentioned, is the early days when you were on the road with a bunch of guys trying

to make it. >> yeah. >> jimmy: and you got -- who's in this thing? ringo starr? >> ringo's in there. >> jimmy: pretty good one. >> the edge from u2. steven tyler from aerosmith. >> jimmy: steven tyler was very stevie tyler-y. [ laughter ] >> i interviewed him for about 2 hours 20 minutes. those 10 minutes of stuff i could actually understand? [ laughter ] solid gold. but the advantage that i have when interviewing musicians is we speak the same language. >> jimmy: except for steven, except steven. that's another planet. but you know, we really -- we sit down, we talk to each other about shared experiences. and what i found in talking to all these musicians is that it all really does come from the same place. when you're a kid and you fall in love with rock 'n' roll, you can't live without it.

and then eventually you throw everything away, you leave your life behind, jump in a stinky old van with your friends, go share it with the world with no guarantee it will ever pay off. >> jimmy: in fact, the odds are against it. some guy, i forget who was saying it, the sentiment seemed to be, when i sat down with that band and i played my first, whatever, peter frampton song, whatever, everybody got excited at school, that's when i knew. i think the edge was talking about that. >> it was -- yes, u2's first live performance, they played "show me the way" by peter frampton. which explains everything, to me. >> jimmy: funny. >> that was the springboard for them to become the biggest band in the world. >> jimmy: for them to show us the way from then on. >> yes, absolutely. >> jimmy: steven tyler i think is of the same mind as you, he recognized the importance of the vehicle that they got around in.

this van we saw you drive in on, that van is the van, the foo fighters' van. i have to ask you a couple of questions. because the idea that you packed the guys and the equipment into idea that you probably made he - millions of dollars with nirvana before vyiie buying this van. [ laughter ] i would think if i was asked to be in your band, i would be like, this is awesome. i don't have to travel in a van. >> then i kidnap you in a dodge ram van. yeah, i mean, i think that when the foo fighters started as a band, it was important to us that it felt real. because we had -- pat and i had come from being in nirvana. william, our original drummer and our bass player, nate, they had come from another band. both wands ended prematurely but we weren't finished making music. knowing we could have done that,

just jump on a private plane, fly around the world, play shows, we felt more comfortable doing it this way because that's the way we had always done it. and when you begin with something like an old van and your friends, it really lays that comes next.for everything - and it makes you appreciate all of the rewards that come after that. so when we were touring in that van, or when i was 18 years old, the first time i went on tour was in a van like that with six people, for months on end. we didn't get hotels. we would sleep in that van, every night, on top of our equipment. so if you found someone who had a house that you could crash in, then you could actually sleep on a couch. oh my god, it's like the four seasons. [ laughter ] this is unbelievable! you know. you're not sleeping on top of an amplifier anymore. so we knew this when we were starting the foo fighters, but it was important to me that it

came from a real place. so that we could appreciate it forever. >> jimmy: do you think you will ever go through that process again? >> well, i tell you. one of the reasons why we made this film was because we were planning on doing a 25th anniversary tour where we would re-do our first tour all over again. not in the same corner bars we played 25 years ago, like hockey arenas and stuff like that. we would pull into the arena in the van, jump out, rock for three hours, back the thing out, and split. [ applause ] that's what we wanted to do. >> jimmy: what happened? >> well. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: i have the feeling that the real underlying secret is you're just cheap. [ laughter ] >> it might be that, too. but our 26th anniversary is going to kick so much ass. >> jimmy: do you use that van, drive the kids to school? >> when i do barbecue stuff, if i'm doing charity barbecues or cooking for hundreds of people,

i fill this thing with all the gear and tow the smoker behind it. it's got 220,000 smiles on mil it. on the way here, going down the 101, on the highway, the windshield wipers started clacking. i'm like, oh my god, i'm going to take flight! i'm going to fly there! stuck straight up. when i first pulled up to the theater, i had these two windshield wipers -- well, that's embarrassing. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: do your kids get in it? >> not that one. it's like a rolling ball of tetanus. [ laughter ] typhoid. i don't want -- i do have that i drive the kids in. 60s - >> jimmy: tetanus-free? >> it's clean. clean. >> jimmy: what bands were you into in high school? what music were you into? >> when i was a kid, i fell in love with rock 'n' roll like most kids. fell in love with the beatles.

kiss. i listened to rush. stuff like that. then by the time i was 13 or 14 i started listening to punk rock music. i put the classic rock is records away and was listening to crazy, dissonant punk rock stuff. >> jimmy: by the time you were 16, you were in a real band? >> by the time i was 12 i was in a neighborhood band. by the time i wa was 15, i made my first record with a punk rock band. by the time i was 17, i made another -- my first lp. yeah, i've been doing this since i was little. >> jimmy: yeah. that's so crazy. now you're an adult. we'll talk about your daughter. she's going to be performing with you. >> yes. >> jimmy: right about the same age where you started making your first record. >> yes. >> jimmy: dave grohl, his documentary is "what drives us." we'll be right back. >> dicky: portions of "jimmy kimmel live" brought to you by bailey's colada, available nationwide for a limited time.

>> jimmy: dave grohl's documentary "what drives us." you know what? i have to tell you, i was watching that, and the idea that the beatles fart, it might be the greatest question of the year. [ laughter ] did you kno that the beatles fart? >> i don't think i asked him that question. i think he just offered up that nugget of wisdom to me. yeah, no, i mean, i never imagined. the only thing i imagined coming out of the beatles was beautiful music. >> jimmy: i bet their farts soundeded melodic >> four-part harmony? "four-fart harmony," the next documentary. where did you meet ringo, how do you know him? >> the first time i met him was, he was releasing a book called "photograph." he took a lot of pictures back

in the day. and i met him then. you know, it's funny when you meet these people that are so influential and instrumental in your life, that they book lik figure, they're human beings. >> jimmy: yeah, you write that. >> you forget it, you've been looking at album covers your whole life. ringo is the sweetest, funniest, nicest, most down to earth person your whole life, and he's a beatle. >> jimmy: most people won't get that chance, this is the closest most of us will get. [ laughter ] >> you don't often get to talk to him about his farts. >> jimmy: rarely does he share that. he has to really love you to tell you something like that. >> i suppose. drummer to drummer. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: drummer to drummer. singing with your daughter. whose idea was this? >> in the documentary there's a

band called x, legendary punk rock band. >> jimmy: l.a., local band. >> 30 years ago i got a letter from my grandmother that said -- it said, dear david, you might be related to this young man, love, grandma. a newspaper clipping from a youngstown, ohio, newspaper, that said x was coming to town. my grandma is the least punk rock person in the world, why would she care? she circled the name d.j.bonebrake. i realized, oh my god, that was my grandmother's maiden name. the bonebrake family -- >> jimmy: what a maiden name that is. >> amazing. >> jimmy: what? >> the bonebrake family -- >> jimmy: that wasn't a fake name? >> it wasn't a punk rock name. everyone else had punk rock names, it was the best punk rock name but it was his actual name. i met him, the two of us are indeed related through this

bonebrake family tree. so -- >> jimmy: how old were you when you met him, still a kid? >> no, too frig rno, foo fighte, we invited them to the show. i brought my mother and sister. i remember when he walked in we were expecting to see like -- [ laughter ] you know. he kind of looks like grandma! or whatever. laugh so we found out we were actually related to each other. so when we were finishing the movie i thought, okay, well, i want to record a song to put in the movie. i thought, wait this makes sense. x is in the movie, d.j. bonebrake is my long-lost cousin, this represents something more than just a song to roll in the credits, it has to do with lineage and family and inspiration. and i thought, who better to sing it than my daughter violet? i said to violet, i said, hey, i have this idea. i want to record this cool punk rock song. she's like, oh, okay, send it to me. [ laughter ]

so i send it to her. 9:00 at night. she texts me, oh my god, this is awesome, let's do it now. i ran up to my home studio, i recorded the instrumental, did the bass drums, guitar and stuff in 20 minutes. she came up and sang it. it's the first time she and i have recorded together, just the two of us. and i'm so proud of it because i love her very much. and she's an amazing singer. but it kind of follows this lineage and family history. >> jimmy: yeah. >> you know, from this guy in switzerland in the 1600s, to now my daughter violent, it's this bonebrake family tree that means a lot. >> jimmy: really interesting and crazy, and also, i've heard the song, and you're right, your daughter does have a beautiful voice. >> she's great. >> jimmy: think she's going to load a van with her friends and travel the country? >> i hope that she does. >> jimmy: will you give her the red van? >> it will probably an tesla.

[ laughter ] >> jimmy: you also did a project with your mom. >> i did. >> jimmy: which is another interesting angle that you've taken, which is talking to -- you guy wrote a book about this too, right? >> yeah, my mother wrote a book about mothers of musicians. >> jimmy: mothers of musicians. >> called "from the cradle to the stage." she interviewed dr. dre's mom and pharell's mom and brandi carlile's mom and miranda carlisle's mom. what she found in these interviews was that there are really strong parallels in all of these relationships between a parent and an artist. at some point these musicians deci decide, this is who i am, this is what i'm going to do. and then it's the parent's job to show love and facilitate whatever they can do to help their kids follow their passion. and we turned it into a documentary series, which is really beautiful, because you get to know so much more about the artist, but more than that,

you realize that the real rock stars are these parents that had to deal with little hoodlums like us. >> jimmy: yeah, like you know, when you give a kid a drum set, that means he's a troublemaker. [ laughter ] >> pretty much yeah. then when that kid buys their mom a house. [ cheers and applause ] >> jimmy: beautiful circle. >> yes. >> jimmy: so that is called -- what is the name of that documentary? that is called "from cradle to stage." premieres may 6th on paramount plus. "what drives us" premieres friday on amazon prime video. pick your daughter up from soccer practice or wherever right now. later on, we'll hear music from violet grohl, dave grohl, and some very important -- >> chris from nirvana playing bass, and dave lombardo from share drums, and dave kristin, it's a super group. >> jimmy: a family super group.
