Foo Fighters Frontman Dave Grohl Stops Show To Fulfill Blind Fan's Request

Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl made someone very happy at the band’s show in Sydney last week, temporarily pausing the performance to fork over a drumstick to a blind fan in the front row.

“There’s a guy in the front row,” Grohl said, explaining his action to the crowd of more than 50,000 people. “He’s got a sign that says, ‘Drumstick for a blind guy please?'”

The band was happy to oblige, grabbing a stick from drummer Taylor Hawkins and passing it on as fans cheered the kind gesture.

Grohl has long had a reputation as an all-around good guy, once even reaching into a turbulent crowd to top off a fan’s beer:
