FOO ON YOU: Interested in reading former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl’s thoughts about his future following Kurt Cobain’s suicide last year?

Don’t look for his interview in the latest issue of Rolling Stone, Spin or Alternative Press.

The only place you’re going to find his comments, at least for now, is in the Capitol Records press kit accompanying the release of the debut album from Grohl’s new band, the Foo Fighters.

“After Kurt’s death, I was about as confused as I’ve ever been,” he says. “To continue almost seemed in vain. I was always going to be ‘that guy from Kurt Cobain’s band’ and I knew that. I wasn’t even sure if I had the desire to make music anymore.

“I received a postcard from fellow Seattle band 7 Year Bitch, who had also lost a member [Stefanie Sargent]. It said, ‘We know what you’re going through. The desire to play music is gone for now, but it will return. Don’t worry.’

“That . . . letter saved my life, because as much as I missed Kurt, and as much as I felt so lost, I knew that there was only one thing that I was truly cut out to do and that was music.”

As for actual interviews, Grohl, who is apparently loath to deal with inevitable questions about Cobain and his widow, Courtney Love, will apparently do very few.

“I understand why he’s gun-shy,” says Spin’s Craig Marks. “Whoever does interview him will have to do a pretty sensitive job. He’s just trying to be respectful to Kurt and probably doesn’t want to say bad things about other people. He is legitimately suspicious about why certain people want to talk with him.”
