Dave Grohl has discussed his hearing loss, saying that he’s been lip-reading for years and that COVID mask-wearing has caused further issues for him over the past two years.The Foo Fighters frontman explained in a new interview how it impacts his life, highlighting that it somehow hasn’t affected his ability to tune into the specifics of recording music.“If you were sitting next to me right here at dinner, I wouldn’t understand a fucking word you were saying to me the whole fucking time,” Grohl told The Howard Stern Show. “There’s no way.
In a crowded restaurant – that’s the worst.”He added: “The worst thing about this pandemic shit is people wearing masks. “I’ve been reading lips for, like, 20 years… I’m a rock musician.
I’m fucking deaf. I can’t hear what you’re saying.”Despite his condition, Grohl said that decades of experience in the music industry has enabled him to still finely pinpoint sounds in the studio.“When we go in to make a record, and we’re mixing an album, I can hear the slightest little things,” Grohl said. “My ears are still tuned in to certain frequencies, and if I hear something out of tune or a cymbal that’s not bright enough or something like that.
In the mix, I can fucking hear the minutiae of everything we had done to that song.”He added that he also manages to perform live without wearing ear monitors.
