The band have asked their dedicated fanbase to get involved in The People Of Rock And Roll by sharing the memories they have of Dave Grohl and co., with hundreds of photos and stories already uploaded.
“Welcome to The People of Rock and Roll!” announces the homepage. “Share in the memories of Foo Fighters fans from all over the world. Hit the heart to like your favourites and create your very own rock'n'roll zine.”

In February this year (and before the world was turned upside-down), Dave confirmed that Foos had finished work on a new album. Speaking to Kerrang! about the record, he said, “I’m fucking excited for people to hear it and I can’t wait to jump on that fucking stage to play it. There are choruses on this record that 50-fucking-thousand people are gonna sing, and it’s gonna bring everyone’s fucking hearts together in that moment. And that’s what it’s all about.”
Reflecting on the Foos’ journey up to this point, the frontman continued: “Honestly, it doesn’t feel like we’ve been doing this for 25 fucking years. It’s funny, some people measure time in days and months and years. But with me, I measure time in musical terms. When I think about 1995 to ’96, that was one thing. When I think of ’90 to ’99, that’s another, and so on.
“I see my life in these markers that are represented by our music. I feel like I’ve been writing this big story, and specific lyrics and songs relate to specific things that happened to me at those times.”
