Heroes To Humanity: #94 - Dave Grohl

After reading this article ("Dave Grohl: F**k Glee") this morning, it made me so happy that I felt it was finally time to honour a man who really needs no introduction...I'll give him one anyway.

For anyone living in musical purgatory for the past 20 years, our Dave began his glittering career as the drummer for Nirvana - his inclusion almost instantly propelling them to rock n' roll royalty - before moving on and becoming front man and chief songwriter for the Foo Fighters. He has also worked with many other bands in varying guises (most notably, Queens of the Stone Age on their epic album "Songs For The Deaf") and is quite simply the finest drummer, and possibly musician, of my generation. Also, in a world rife with Madonna's and Kanye West's, it's nice to see someone at the top of his game who is down to earth, humble as can be and seemingly enjoying every minute of the ride, as evidenced by the Foo's latest video:



Mr. Grohl, we salute you. Now, altogether...."F**k Glee!"

JB.
