Both of them.

I don't even care much for Foo Fighters, but Dave Grohl is a hero. I live near his birthplace of Warren, Ohio and when they dedicated an alley in his name, I laughed at the prospect that he'd show up here. I sure ate those words. The next year he rode in on his Harley for Record Store Day at my friend's independent record store. He did an impromptu concert with members of the band and signed autographs at no charge.

I don't know how Nandi kept a dry eye through that. I didn't.

Whatta guy! Thanx for posting.
