Dave Grohl spent over 24 hours volunteering at a Los Angeles shelter to prepare barbecue for hundreds of people experiencing homelessness. The Foo Fighters frontman cooked up everything from brisket to pork butt to ribs and more. Grohl and his companions smoked the meat well past midnight, unpreterbed by a rare winter storm that rolled through Southern California. Grace Ancheta, the director of the shelter that Grohl served at, said, “He actually served to our guests, he came out and was very gracious and took pictures with the people that recognized him…He wanted no glory for it, he was like, ‘I just want to do this for you guys and give back in that way.”
Yesterday, Foo Fighters announced three stand-alone dates in New Hampshire, Arkansas, and Alabama to go along with their busy, festival-heavy summer. Information on all Foo Fighters touring dates can be found here.
