Foo Fighters got the "Led" out at the 2012 Kennedy Center honors. The band performed a cover of Led Zeppelin's 'Rock and Roll,' and it did so with plenty of venom and vigor. Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and co. should be proud.
Foo Fighters, Kid Rock and Lenny Kravitz were among the musicians that rocked Led Zeppelin classics during the Kennedy Center Honors tribute to the legendary rock band, which took place a few weeks ago but aired last night (Dec. 26) on CBS.
Dave Grohl. Maybe you've heard of him? SInger/drummer/guitarist/songwriter for a couple of decent bands...Nirvana? Foo Fighters? Yeah, that's him. If that weren't enough to put on a resume, now he has to throw 'movie director' in the mix.
Sadly, the Foo Fighters are taking break (which won't last long, as Dave Grohl can't sit still.) But Taylor Hawkin's isn't sitting on his hands. He was just spotted jamming with Jane's addition and it was caught on video
Yes, Dave Grohl can pound the drums with the best of them, but he may have a little trouble dealing with the drumsticks presented by the city of his birth – Warren, Ohio.
Some people decide to join a rock band for the chicks. Some do it for the money. And some do it because they just love to play music. I dare say Dave Grohl fits into the latter. You can't get more famous than Dave. Safe to say he's got a few bucks in his wallet. Chicks? I'm sure he's got that covered. But fame and fortune don't seem to affect him.
In 2002, the Foo Fighters were at a crossroads...
When they went into the studio to work on material that eventually became the "One By One' album, they had just come off a two-year tour, various members were battling inner demons (read: Taylor Hawkins drug problems), and the sessions were going nowhere fast.
Reason #3,274 why my life sucks: The Foo Fighters are playing Jazz Fest in New Orleans on May 6th. I have tickets. I have a place to stay. I also have a 'mandatory' station promotion that weekend. One of those 'show up or else' things. Can they hold hold me liable if I come down with a screaming case of herpegonnasyphallaids and have to be rushed to New Orleans? And make a miraculous recovery on Tuesday?
As the 2012 Grammy Awards slowly become a spotlit memory, one of the most successful and featured winners of “music’s biggest night” were Foo Fighters. With his band having captured five Grammy awards (only one less than pop star Adele), including Best Hard Rock / Metal Performance, frontman Dave Grohl revealed to MTV that he feels bad for beating out Dream Theater for that very award.
Dave Grohl has fashioned a documentary about the famed Sound City Studios – Nirvana‘s ‘Nevermind’ and Fleetwood Mac‘s ‘Rumors’ are part of the studio’s repertoire, to name few. A super short and not-very-informative but utterly evocative trailer has been released. It’s more of a teaser than anything.
Rock music and comedy go hand in hand (mostly because we are usually stoned and drunk but that's a whole other post for a whole other time), and there have been some hysterical music videos produced over the years. Eve
