Member of the homophobic, ultra-conservative, Westboro Baptist Church in KS were holding a protest of the upcoming Foo Fighters concert (devil’s music), so Dave Grohl decided to roll out an epic troll by singing, “You Should be Dancin” to them the bed of a truck.

And I mean that in the best way possible.

He's likely the nicest person in the music industry.

Joan Jett & Chrissie Hynde both speak very highly of him, and he became pretty good friends with Bowie before David died. Butch Vig was effusive in his praise of Dave's ability to work with others
Seems like everyone is willing to jam with him.

at one event or another. Essentially they are not even noticed around here anymore. Everything they have tried to do they have been beaten. I do not even know who is really running it now and I never hear a word about them.

Good for Dave Grohl.
