Loading... Mags sent me a request a little while back, this is me coming through on that. His words below:
The Foo Fighters live in some dude's garage. If Dave Grohl wasn't already #1 on my list of "rock stars who seem like cool dudes and I want to hang out with", this definitely would have put him there.
