Foo Fighters kicked off their 2024 tour (get tickets here) on Wednesday, May 1st at Dos Equis Pavilion in Dallas, Texas, and paid tribute to hometown hero Dimebag Darrell during the show. Fittingly, Dave Grohl dedicated “My Hero” to the late Pantera guitarist.
In fan-filmed video (watch below), Grohl starts playing “My Hero” on guitar and addresses the crowd: “This one’s for everybody. Actually, you know what, since we’re here in Dallas, I’m gonna dedicate this one to an old friend. He lived around here. His name is Dimebag Darrell. How ’bout that? We’ll sing it for Darrell.”

Kohei Horikoshi created the electrifying world of My Hero Academia, where quirks are distributed like lollies. People often refer to the series as one of the “New Age Big Three.” The franchise’s popularity led it to receive anime, games, live-action, light novels, and movies, all under the watchful eyes of the author. So, have you ever wondered how much dough Horikoshi has raked in from My Hero Academia? Spoiler alert: It’s pretty impressive.
Kohei Horikoshi never revealed his bank transactions, and nor did he ever hint at his earnings. The statements in this article are derived purely from an average of how much people typically get paid in his stature. So, take everything with a grain of salt.

Writer Paul Mayhew-Archer has penned comedy drama But When We Dance based on his own experience of Parkinson’s. Here are the details:
Work has finally started on veteran comedy writer Paul Mayhew-Archer’s next project: But When We Dance, a feature length drama which was meant to go into production for the BBC over three years ago, but the pandemic threw the schedule into chaos.
Johnny Campbell is on board to direct from Mayhew-Archer’s script, while the BBC is currently finalising the cast.
The story “centres on two people with lots in common: a great sense of humour, a love of dance, and Parkinson’s,” according to Deadline.
Mayhew-Archer is probably best known for co-writing every episode of The Vicar Of Dibley with Richard Curtis. He has worked behind the scenes in BBC comedy since the 1980s, script editing shows as diverse as Steven Moffat’s Chalk to...

On Tuesday, March 5, Foo Fighters will take a rare detour from stadium, arena and amphitheater stages to perform at a private, one-night-only concert in Washington, D.C. hosted by Power to the Patients, a non-profit fighting for a more affordable, accessible, and equitable healthcare system through true price transparency.
Find out more about the concert here.
Hip hop legends Fat Joe and Chuck D will also be in attendance.
“When we were asked by Power to the Patients to help raise awareness of the need for transparency in healthcare pricing, we immediately said yes. People suffering from illness and injury shouldn’t have to worry about being bankrupted by surprise charges for their treatment.” — Foo Fighters
With lawmakers, government officials, and their dedicated staff in attendance, Foo Fighters will join the drive to raise awareness about the inequality and uncertainty created for millions of patients when hospitals and insurers hide actual upfront prices.

Hayley Williams doesn’t have time for internet trolls. On Sunday, July 30th, the Paramore singer took to Instagram while recovering from a lung infection — which caused the postponement of some of the band’s tour dates — and slammed sexist “internet bros” for their critical outcries against her.
Sharing a screenshot of a post in which a Twitter user tried to give her shit for postponing the shows with the argument that Metallica and Iron Maiden are both older than her and still “manage” to perform, Williams served a slam-dunk response: “Neither James [Hetfield] nor Bruce [Dickinson] are gonna suck your dick for this, love.”
Williams then shared another screenshot, showing a Twitter user comparing her to Dave Grohl, who famously finished a Foo Fighters concert after breaking his leg in 2015. The twitter user called Williams “whiney,” but she eloquently responded with the truth. “I have a lung infection, you soft shit!

People who spend all day spewing hate on the internet have mastered the art of being loud and wrong. A subset of that community recently aimed at Hayley Williams following the postponement of several Paramore concerts while she recovered from a non-contagious lung infection. From their perspective, as people who likely haven’t performed even one percent of the number of shows that Williams has, she should have powered through — like Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl did when he broke his leg, apparently.

A total of 38 individuals received their first Primetime Emmy acting nominations in 2023, including “George & Tammy” stars Jessica Chastain and Michael Shannon and comedic leads Jeremy Allen White (“The Bear”) and Jenna Ortega (“Wednesday”). Of the newbies in this group, Pedro Pascal is the only one who scored bids for his live action work on multiple programs. In addition to landing in the Best Drama Actor lineup as a star of “The Last of Us,” he also earned a shot at the Best Comedy Guest Actor prize for hosting an episode of “Saturday Night Live.”
Pascal (who was also on the first-round drama lead ballot for “The Mandalorian” and picked up a narration bid for “Patagonia”) could become the seventh doubly-nominated first-timer to succeed on one or both of his mentions. The first to achieve this feat was Robert Cummings, who concurrently won for “12 Angry Men” and lost for...

Stern Pinball posted a new video (below) teasing its upcoming table, which we’ve heard is appearing at San Diego Comic-Con next week. Stern’s Venom pinball machine has been rumored as the next table from Brian Eddy, with the production of the table getting bumped by James Bond in the line of anticipated products.
Details about Stern Pinball’s Venom pinball machine remain a mystery, though we know it’s a Brian Eddy design with artwork by Zombie Yeti. A Venom pinball machine is Stern’s third most hyped pinball project, with Jaws and Back to the Future occupying the top two slots.

The rumors were true, after all: Foo Fighters performed a surprise set at Glastonbury Friday evening.
Dave Grohl and company took the Pyramid stage at 6:10 p.m. UK time, a block previously occupied on the schedule by placeholder alias The Churnups; real Foos heads might recall that the band’s first-ever Glastonbury performance in 1998 took place on the very same stage around the same time slot. Nowadays, it’s hard to imagine them not headlining, but Primal Scream was the main event on that very muddy evening. Foo Fighters did end up headlining the fest in 2017, after dropping out in 2015 due to Grohl’s infamous broken leg.
Foo Fighters’ nine-song setlist was mostly packed with greatest hits, including “All My Life,” “The Pretender,” “Best of You,” and “Everlong.” The band also played a pair of songs from their new album, But Here We Are, including “Rescued” and “Show Me How” with Violet Grohl.

On Sunday, Foo Fighters closed out Bonnaroo with a 19-song set that featured hits, guest appearances, a tribute to their late drummer Taylor Hawkins, and some fun covers, including a snippet of Beastie Boys’ 1994 classic, “Sabotage.”
“Fuck, let’s do it — go, Nate, go,” frontman Dave Grohl said onstage in front of the crowd in Manchester, Tennessee, cuing bassist Nate Mendel to kick off the song’s opening riff. As the intro burst into the first verse, Grohl hopped in, doing his best Ad-Rock impersonation.
The band made it a few lines before Grohl pulled the plug, saying “I can’t fucking rap and I don’t know the song, though I love it.” He then told the crowd: “Next year, we’ll come back to Bonnaroo, we’ll play at the fucking ‘Wha-What Stage’ and we’ll do a whole Beastie Boys set, how about that?” Watch a video of the performance below.

When the 2022 Primetime Emmy nominations were revealed, Rhea Seehorn and Sydney Sweeney both had the honor of seeing their names come up twice. In addition to landing slots in the Best Drama Supporting Actress lineup for “Better Call Saul” and “Euphoria,” respectively, Seehorn (“Cooper’s Bar”) also competed for Best Short Form Actress while Sweeney (“The White Lotus”) was included among the Best Limited Series/TV Movie Supporting Actress contenders. Since neither of them had been recognized by the TV academy before, they became part of a group of 24 doubly-nominated Emmy first-timers.
Neither Seehorn nor Sweeney succeeded on either of her bids, but that isn’t surprising given the fact that only six of this group’s two dozen members have actually pulled off wins. The first such victor was Robert Cummings, who also originally established the club back in 1955. He received what would now be considered the Best Limited/Movie...

Dave Grohl returned to his old stomping grounds in Washington, DC on Tuesday to help christen The Atlantis, a new 450-person capacity replica venue of the original 9:30 Club. Grohl’s Foo Fighters had the honors of becoming the first band to take the stage at The Atlantis, and they turned in a thrilling 22-song, two-hour performance.
Appropriately, the concert kicked off with Grohl reuniting with Pete Stahl, his old bandmate in the DC hardcore band Scream. Together, they covered the Bad Brains song “At The Atlantis.” From there, Foo Fighters launched into a set primarily consisting of greatest hits — plus a few more surprises.
After dedicating Foo Fighters’ performance of “Break Me” to Foghat, Grohl managed to work in a few lines from “Slow Ride.” He welcomed his daughter, Violet Grohl, to sing on “Shame Shame” and “Rope,” and invited friend and 9:30 Club owner Seth Hurwitz to drum on “Big Me.

The teenager then got behind the drums to join the band for a blistering rendition of “I’ll Stick Around”.

Foo Fighters played their first full-band concert of 2023 at Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion at Meadowbrook in Gilford, Nh on Wednesday. The show served as a sort-of warm-up ahead of the band’s run of summer festival appearances. It also marked Foo Fighters’ first public gig with new live drummer Josh Freese, who has stepped in for the late Taylor Hawkins.
The setlist spanned a total of 21 songs, kicking off with “Rescued,” the lead single from their new album, But Here We Are. They further previewed the album with performances of “Under You,” “Nothing At All,” and the album’s title track.
During the show, Dave Grohl also paid tribute to Hawkins with an emotional solo rendition of “Cold Day in the Sun,” which marked the first live performance of the song in five years. “This is something I never thought I’d have to do,” Grohl said prior to the performance.

Jimi Hendrix packed a lot of living into his short life. Although he was only 27 years old when he died, he helped shape the entire classic rock genre. Hendrix was also quite the character when he was offstage. In fact, some of his past comments are still making people laugh to this day.
Jimi Hendrix’s impressive career
Hendrix, who learned to play the guitar as a teenager, delighted audiences worldwide in the 1960s with his innovative electric guitar playing, as Biography reports. His first single, “Hey Joe,” was instantly popular in Britain, and his 1967 tour to promote his first album, “Are you Experienced?,” won over huge crowds.
One of the highlights of Hendrix’s career happened at the infamous Woodstock festival in 1969, when he performed “The Star-Spangled Banner.” One journalist once wrote that Hendrix “could get more out of an electric guitar than anyone else,” calling him “the ultimate guitar player.

Saturday, March 25th marks the first anniversary of Taylor Hawkins’ sudden passing. In honor of the longtime Foo Fighters drummer, 100 Belgian drummers recently got together for a massive group cover of “My Hero” at Sportpaleis Antwerp, the last venue Hawkins ever performed at in the country.
If this concept sounds familiar to you, you might be thinking of Rockin’1000, a band of 1,000 Foo Fighters diehards who covered “Learn to Fly” in a (successful!) attempt to lure Dave Grohl and company to their small Italian city. Rockin’1000 also convened in May 2022 for their own rendition of “My Hero” in an emotional tribute to Hawkins. While this Belgium crew is quite noticeably smaller, it still highlights just how impactful the drummer was and continues to be — not that we needed the reminder.
Filling out the rest of the arrangement on guitar, bass, and vocals is the Belgian rock band Black Box Revelation,...

Billie Eilish capped off her final of three “Hometown Encore” shows by bringing out Donald Glover, a.k.a. Childish Gambino, to perform “Redbone” Friday night at Los Angeles’ Kia Forum.
Although the show took place two days before Eilish’s Dec. 18 birthday, the singer celebrated early as Eilish’s family came out onstage to sing “Happy Birthday to You” to the soon-to-be 21-year-old.

The 24th edition of the festival set to run from April to May 2023.
South Korea’s Jeonju International Film Festival has appointed two co-directors – veteran actor Jung Joonho and former vice director Min Sungwook.
Former festival director Lee Joondong’s three-year contract ended earlier this year after he wrapped the festival’s 23rd edition, which was the first to be held as a fully fledged event since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Organisers stated that Jeonju is aiming to build on its solid cinephile following for its independent and alternative cinema programming but also lower the barrier for wider mass audiences.

Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins was honored for more than five hours during a London concert on Saturday night, but the highlight of the evening was the late artist's 16-year-old son, Shane Hawkins, playing drums with the band during an emotional rendition of "My Hero." The "Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concert" aired on CBS and is streaming now on Paramount+. Throughout the evening, several different drummers stepped up to play for Hawkins, with Shane rounding out the lineup for the last performance of the night.
Hawkins died on March 25 in in Bogotá, Colombia, after complaining of heart pains. The drummer was 50. In June, Hawkins's wife, Alison, shared a statement about her husband's passing on Twitter. "As Taylor's wife, and on behalf of our children, I want to share how much you meant to him and how dedicated he was to 'knocking your socks off' during every performance," her statement read in part.

On Saturday (3 September), Dave Grohl united numerous musicians for a six-hour fundraiser at London’s Wembley Stadium in honour of his former Foo Fighters bandmate.
Among those to perform were Paul McCartney, Liam Gallagher, Queen and Mark Ronson.
However, it was Hawkins’ son Oliver Shane Hawkins who impressed those in attendance, as well as those watching along at home, the most. He sat in his dad’s spot to drum for Foo Fighters song “My Hero”.
The performance was accompanied by images of Oliver and his dad on the screen behind.
Hawkins died in March, aged 50. He was found in a hotel room in Colombia, and the cause of death was ruled as cardiovascular collapse .

Taylor Hawkins was sunshine incarnate. The late Foo Fighters drummer – also a songwriter, singer and multi-instrumentalist – had an unrivalled sense of positivity and joie de vivre. His megawatt smile could power a stadium show all of its own.
The first of two tribute concerts to Hawkins, who died aged 50 in March this year, does its utmost to summon that same energy. Gathered here at Wembley Stadium are some of Hawkins’s closest friends – the surviving Foos members, of course – family, collaborators and admirers, for a six-hour marathon of a show. Understandably, the mood that fills the 80,000-capacity venue is a strange one. Hawkins’s favourite songs are played ahead of the late-afternoon start time – Abba, Elo, George Michael – but no one feels like dancing just yet.

Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl was overcome with emotion as he and his bandmates took to the stage at London’s Wembley Stadium, during a star-studded concert to remember their late drummer Taylor Hawkins.
It was the first time the band had performed live since Hawkins’s death in March this year, and Grohl struggled to compose himself while singing their hit Times Like These, pausing at the lyric: “It’s times like these you learn to love again.”
Musicians joining the Foo Fighters on stage at Wembley included members of Metallica, Queen, Paul McCartney, AC/DC, plus Nile Rodgers and Liam Gallagher.
A rotating set of drummers sat in for Hawkins on Foo Fighters’ numbers, including Travis Barker, Darkness drummer Rufus Tiger Taylor and, movingly, Hawkins’s own teenage son Shane on the song My Hero.

Fans flocked to London’s Wembley Stadium for the six-hour long concert, which saw Grohl joined by many stars, including Paul McCartney, Liam Gallagher, Mark Ronson and Ted Lasso star Jason Sudeikis.
In the most memorable moment from the event, Hawkins’ 16-year-old son Oliver Shane “crushed” a performance of Foo Fighters track “My Hero” after drumming in his late dad’s spot.
It all got too much for Grohl, though, who was commended for his energy during what must have been an extremely challenging day.

The Wembley Stadium in London witnessed an emotional tribute to the Foo Fighters drummer, Taylor Hawkins as the rock band took to stage to honour the memory of the drummer who passed away on March 25 earlier this year, reports Variety.
Two things seemed guaranteed when the great and the good of the rock world gathered at the stadium to pay tribute to the late Foo Fighters drummer, Taylor Hawkins: One, it would be emotional. And two, there would be drums.
The first Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concert (the second is in Los Angeles later this month) didn’t take long to deliver on either count.
According to Variety, at 4.30 p.m. sharp (London time), the Foo Fighters emerged and, as Dave Grohl stepped up to speak, the crowd gave him a huge ovation.
As he bowed his head, the applause grew. As he looked to the heavens, a chant of “Taylor!

Included among the 2022 Primetime Emmy contenders are five actors nominated for multiple performances. Julia Garner (“Inventing Anna” and “Ozark”), Bill Hader (“Barry” and “Curb Your Enthusiasm”), and Harriet Walter (“Succession” and “Ted Lasso”) have been recognized by the TV academy before, while the remaining two – Rhea Seehorn and Sydney Sweeney – are now part of a group of 24 doubly-nominated first-timers.

The 2022 class of Primetime Emmy nominees includes 50 first-time acting contenders, including “The Great” stars Elle Fanning and Nicholas Hoult and featured “Ted Lasso” players Toheeb Jimoh and Sarah Niles. Two of the newbies – Rhea Seehorn and Sydney Sweeney – have each nabbed bids for their work on multiple programs. In addition to their respective Best Drama Supporting Actress notices for “Better Call Saul” and “Euphoria,” Seehorn is up for Best Short Form Actress (“Cooper’s Bar”), while Sweeney is vying for Best Limited Series/TV Movie Supporting Actress (“The White Lotus”).
Either Seehorn or Sweeney could become the seventh doubly-nominated first-timer to triumph in at least one acting category. The first to achieve this feat was Robert Cummings, who concurrently won for “12 Angry Men” and lost for “My Hero” in 1955. He was followed by Jack Albertson, Eileen Brennan, Jane Lynch, Riz Ahmed, and Ann Dowd.
