Dave Grohl responds to creators of 1,000-strong Foo Fighters cover

You can’t always get what you want – unless you are one of the 1,000 musicians who covered Foo Fighters’ Learn To Fly.

We’ve all seen the amazing performance by the locals of Cesena, Italy, asking whether the band will go and play there.

The footage went viral, so it was never going to be long before it landed in the broken-legged lap of Dave Grohl.

Well, the frontman watched it and it looks like the band has answered their prayers. Replying in Italian, Grohl said: “Very nice Cesena” followed with “see you soon.”

Bellissimo Cesena!

Che bello, Cesena…. https://t.co/o3ThIE4QYV #Rockin1000

Now, London, if we could all grab our instruments to perform Bowie’s Life On Mars to lure David back to the stage, that would be great.
