Drummer, Guitarist and Vocalist Dave is a man of many talents and is amazing at all of them. He inspired me to try guitar and now I am grade 4. He also inspired me to learn bass, this is because he plays guitar, drums and is a vocalist so I thought I could try another insrument.

When Freak Baby kicked out its bass player, Grohl decided to switch to drums, and the new band called themselves Mission Impossible.
