(applause) beer is never cold enough for americans. every commercial, frost brewed, colt filtered, ice bottle, we

pack hit in the glacier, put it on the back of a frozen truck driven by a polar bear. by the time it gets to you it's one degree below room temperature, that's the best we can do. why -- the drink culture. gatorade now, three different gatorade it is new commercial. gatorade series. you need three to survive. (laughter) one to prepare, one to perform, one to recover. (laughter) (applause) i just went from the fridge to the couch. how many electrolytes did i lose there? (laughter) who's got stuff for us? i went to the movies the other day, there's a new announcer in the movie theater mixed in with the trailers. "please pick up the garbage from around your seat after the movie." oh, okay. (laughter) maybe i'll bring my orange jufrp suit and a wooden stick with a nail in it, too. (laughter and applause)

in case i want to work my way down the highway after the credit. (laughter) i'm not picking up enough! i'm the one that threw it down! (laughter) why would i throw it down and then pick it up? (laughter) there is an agreed-upon deal between us and the movie theater people, whoever the hell they are. (laughter) and that deal is understood by every single person in this room. the deal is you're rippling us off. (laughter) okay? we get it. we're fine with it. (applause) a lot of overpriced oversized crap we shouldn't be eating to begin with. fine. it's all fine. in exchange for that, when i'm done with something i hope my hand. (applause)

(applause) what have they done for us? a cup holder. that is the son-in-law feature they have added, the cup holder growing out of the arm wrest. well, you're resting your arm, you certainly won't be able to hold a cup. the cup holder defines american culture at this point. we can't hold a cup. where is the cup holder in this car? this is insane! doe don't want to grip things. hands free. everyone's looking for hands free. whenever i go on amazon aalways set that one-click ordering, right? one click, that's it!

if you need me to click twice i don't even want it anymore! i'm not clicking! (applause) get some wheels on the luggage, get me a belt clip for think cell phone, get me an ear piece, too, and not one that you take in and out, drill it right into the side of my skull. (applause) you have a dog and they give you a leash with the extra leash wound up inside in case the dog pulls it, you hit the button, let the line out like he's a marlin. (laughter) nobody wants to do anything but lie in bed. anything -- if you're not in bed it's work. (laughter) even death people want to be in bed. i always read "he died in his deathbed." i always read that in the paper. why would you even buy a bed hike that? (laughter) how are you going to start

feeling better sleeping in a deathbed? (laughter) where is that section of the furniture store? these are our death beds over here. we also have a death side table, death reading lamp. is that a death clock radio? yes but there's no snooze, either you get up or you don't. (applause) >> dave: how about that? hey, how about that? jerry, how are you? jerry seinfeld, ladies and gentlemen. >> long time. >> dave: that's all right. what do you think?

(laughter) >> dave: but there are people -- there are people i never want to see again and people i would like to have on a regular basis. >> all right. >> dave: you come on a regular basis. last time you were here -- when was the last time? >> i think it was a year ago. >> dave: a year ago! 20 minutes. >> well, i don't need this. (laughter) >> dave: i'm so dumb. >> well what do you mean?

>> dave: out of friendship i thought -- >> well, friendship -- if you have a friend you usually don't have the to prepare a standup set. (laughter) to hang out with a friend. >> dave: well, true. >> dave: but it's nice to see you. >> thank you, that's all i want to hear. i'm a big believer in portion control. i think if i came as often as you want you wouldn't like me so much. >> dave: no, no, no, no. here's another thing, just a word to the wise. you have this little show on crackle -- (laughter) >> you can also eat it. >> dave: and you talk to -- you love automobiles. i have a fondness for automobiles. you love coffee; i love coffee. but if it weren't for the caffeine i'd have no personality whatsoever. (laughter) and then you and the comedians get in the the car and drive around drinking coffee. great. where's my -- how come -- when will i be invited to be in a car

with coffee? >> well, first of all, thank you for not putting me on the spot. (laughter and applause) >> dave: well, if you'd be here more often than every year we could hammer these things out. >> has anyone heard of this little show that i'm doing? (cheers and applause) >> dave: i saw one today. it was you and michael richards and you're driving a v.w. bus pickup that i had never seen before and i was fascinated by that. >> dave: do you think you could do it? >> do what? >> dave: could you pull it off. do you have the -- >> dave: pull what off? >> all you have to do is have coffee. that's all you've got to do to be on this show. see, i looked at your show and i thought, well, what about that show do i like? (laughter) >> dave: how much of this do i have to take? (laughter) >> you like it when somebody comes on that you like. >> sure. >> dave: so i decided why don't i do a show where i only do it where it's somebody i like. (laughter)

so that's why i don't do that many of them. i could never do your job. i don't have your -- >> dave: now wait a minute, right in the middle of all of this was a horrible thing to have said. (laughter) >> what? what'd i say? >> dave: you said you only want to have people on you like. >> right. >> dave: so that's why i'm not on! my god! (applause) >> would you like to be on? >> dave: here's the problem. i would love to be on. i'm sorry i wasn't on in the first run when you got your real good a-buddy friends on there. >> yeah. but now that it's a huge success i'm looking forward to it. my problem is, as i get older i have lessess and l to say that. 's not the problem. the problem is but yet i can't stop talking. (laughter) >> dave: that's why we edit. we edit. but if you want to be on the show i will make you the first guest of the new season. (applause) >> dave: thank you, that's very

nice of you. >> if you want to do it. >> dave: would i have to go somewhere? >> no. >> dave: where would we do it? >> anywhere you want. see, that's another thing i don't like about your show. (laughter) -- >> dave: for the love of god! >> you have to come here. well, i can't go anywhere. i don't want to be anywhere. >> dave: you live 20 minutes from here. you and i could walk home and be back before the commercial and we could get a sandwich. >> my concept is you take the talk show, get rid of the makeup and get rid of having to show up. >> dave: what i like about the show is you pick the guy up. so you would pick me up. >> i pick you up. >> dave: and i was fascinated. i was hookd from the beginning because it's you and michael richards. i see the. havew. bus. you run through the details of it. it's a split window three door or five door -- >> very good. th's correct. >> dave: primer and rust flat bed. i don't think i'd seen one of

those before and i wondered does jerry own it? >> that happens to be mine. most of the cars i borrow. >> dave: how do you borrow a car? you have plenty of your own cars. >> i actually will pick the car to suit the guest. >> oh! >> dave: now michael richards to me is a guy who's very pure about ms. comedy. and a v.w. bus is a purely -- >> what other cars have we had with comedians. like alec baldwin -- >> he was in a mercedes 280 s.l. because he's a very elegant guy. >> dave: what about me? (laughter) what are you thinking? >> let me have a talent coordinator get in touch with you. i would talk to you about what you're feeling right now. what do you want to be in? now that people know the show i can get anything. you just go on ebay or go on "bring a trailer" have you ever been on "bring a trailer?" >> dave: i don't know what that

is? is that another show on crackle? (laughter) i speculated i bet jerry's using his own cars and then he writes them off because they were used on the show. (laughter) >> dave, i don't have to do those things. if (applause) i graduated. i'm the pope who's leaving now. that thing -- anything >> he does what he wants, the fish hooks in the hat. i like that. but -- >> we'll talk about it. >> dave: i like the idea of it and it's only 11 minutes. >> but you have to do more than 11 minutes. it's 11 good minutes. (laughter) i generally -- how long does it take you to go out and have a cup of coffee with a friend? have you ever done that? >> oh, with a friend he? >> yeah. >> dave: oh --

>> couple hours. >> dave: i'm telling you, if you invite me on this show you will regret it from hello. (laughter) >> really. >> bauds i get coffee in me and i've got a pituitary problem. i can't stop talking. can ask your buddy alec baldwin. i was on his little podcast show and i was talking "time"-to-anymore the elevator after the interview. i couldn't shut up! >> you know what i recommend far guy with that problem? a talk show. (laughter) >> dave: we tried that, doesn't work. oh, my god! jerry, jerry, nice to see you. the family's doing well? >> everyone's good. >> dave: you look like a billion dollars, my friend. you can see that "comedians in cars getting coffee." it's fascinating. if you love cars it's great and you get to snow jerry's friends and speak outside the limited group of friends he has. (laughter) it will get you in practice to

find crackle. (laughter) jerry seinfeld, "comedians in cars getting coffee." good to see you, buddy, nice job. thank you. we'll be right back with dave grohl, everybody. ♪ (cheers and applause)

♪ ♪ >> dave: ladies and gentlemen, in addition to being the a founding member of one of the great rock 'n' roll bands, foo fighters, our next guest is also the director of a woond wonderful documentary entitled "sound city." the film is playing in selected cities and at online www.soundcitymovie.com. ladies and gentlemen, here's our good friend dave grohl.

dave? (cheers and applause) good to see you, dave. >> hi, dave. >> dave: thank you very much for being on the show. now you know-- if you don't know i'll tell you-- that i have a lot of respect for you and your career and your music and your buddies who come on generously and play for us many, many times. fantastic. >> thank you. >> dave: then i saw the "sound city" film and you're not a film director, you're not a writer, a producer, an actor, you're a musician and i saw the sound city film and i just loved it. >> thank you. >> i was just crazy for it. (applause) >> dave: i heard of sound city but didn't really know much more than it was like i guess a music -- a record company -- not a company but a studio. >> a recording studio. >> dave: and i was moved to los angeles in the -- 1975 so i

would have been there. tell people everything they need to know about you, sound city and the music. >> well sound city was a recording studio in van nuys, california, in the valley. they opened in the late' 60s and it wasn't until the early '70s that bigger artists started recording there. neil young went there and did at after the gold rush" and fleetwood mac made their record with stevie and lindsay there. it was actually where mick need wood joined fleetwood mack. and i went there in 1991 with nirvana. (applause) thank you, we booked into that studio because it was cheap. it was $600 a day and they had sort of kind of passed their prime, their heyday. in '73 they were state-of-the-art it was brown shag carpet on the walls, it was cool. by 1991 it was -- so we walked

in, it was a dump. it looked like a burned out chi-chi's. (laughter) it was a terrible place. but if you put the drums in this space in a spot in the big room and hit "record" it sounded like -- you know, you would just get this huge sound and so the 16 days we were there changed my life forever. so i stayed friends with the people that owned the studio and inevitably about two years ago they closed because bigger studios like that can't really compete with newer technology. the accessibility of digital recording stuff, you can make a record in your living room. you don't need those big places anymore. but i think those big places are like museums because generations of kids have changed. the world has changed from the music that was made in these places. to me music history is just as

important as the president and politics. (applause) >> dave: well, i think you're right. one of the great things about the movie is there's many facets to this story and the one is that digital music makes a huge inroad into music culture and it kind of kicks the legs out from under sound city which was analog. so i can remember and probably everybody's got there story, when i got my first c.d. player and you put the c.d. in and everybody would listen to it and they said "it's so quiet, you can't hear it." that doesn't mean it's better, does it? >> it's funny. in the movie we talk about technology, it has a lot to do with why sound city isn't around anymore. when i was a kid i would have killed to have that accessibility or opportunity to make records -- now you can make a record in your living room and with the click of a bus on the you can send it out to the world. does that mean there's a lot of great music coming out? that there's more great music? not really.

(laughter) but it's available to you so if you're passionate about what you do, what we talk about is the human element of music. when two people get together -- >> dave: making music with another person. >> with another person and it's the imperfection that gives you personality. >> dave: and how that dynamic is different when you're making it by yourself because you're interacting with another living breathing being. but you also talk about how mr. nine inch nails, what's his name? >> trent rez or in. >> dave: trent reznor. he uses that tool and makes music the way it was made at sound city. >> he's a brilliant dude. he's a classically trained musician but he also recognizes technology as an instrument that you can't do with other instruments. he can't do, which i think is one of the things that -- one of the things that's made music a little less exciting is you listen to a singer and it doesn't really sound like a human being, it's been flat

lined by some auto tune program or a drumer that doesn't sound like a drummer because it's been grided by a computer. when you listen to my favorite drummers they were insane, they would never get accepted into the berklee school of music because they played like they were on acid, you know? (laughter) and that's what inspired me to play music. >> dave: i want to articulate why music fans and others should gol see this film. it's got everything. it's a wonderful story, great music and we'll hear some great music with you and others and stevie nicks. ladies and gentlemen, the great dave grohl. (cheers and applause) we'll be back with the sound city players and stevie nicks. (cheers and applause)
