"People created headlines from one quick, simple comment I made on a podcast not long ago, it's crazy. I've got to be careful about what I say about it. But I've got a lot to say about it and I've been just trying to figure out how and when, to go about really articulating it."
"I have a couple small theories, but I can't really go into them right now. I did really enjoy the two years I spent with those guys however, and they were good to me... until they weren't. I liked playing with them. And I loved having Dave [Grohl] as a bandleader. I truly respect him so much as a drummer first and foremost. To me, he's a drummer first and everything else is second. I've listened to him on all the great records he's played drums on more than I've listened to any Foo Fighters stuff."
Josh Freese was unexpectedly fired from Foo Fighters roughly nine months ago but did not retreat from music, promptly rejoining Nine Inch Nails and currently touring on their North American leg. Freese says no one should feel sorry for him and frames the firing as a minor blip in a successful career. He warns that Foo Fighters' mainstream profile amplifies and distorts his words, so he is cautious about speaking publicly. He enjoyed his two years with the band, appreciated playing under Dave Grohl, and emphasizes deep respect for Grohl as a drummer first and foremost.
