Imagine you’re chilling at a beach bar and someone says, ‘Hey, that guy on drums? That’s Dave Grohl!’ Sounds too good to be true, right? Well, that’s exactly what’s got the internet buzzing recently.The band Fudge posted a video on Instagram, claiming that none other than Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl himself joined them on stage to play drums for Everlong.
At first glance, it’s the kind of magical rock-and-roll moment we all want to believe is real. But as always, the internet has questions, and a lot of fans are accusing the band of lying.
Let’s dive into the comments section, where things get… heated. One fan wrote, ‘You actually play with him, or is that your drummer behind the kit? Cuz I ain’t see his face.’ Another chimed in, ‘That is not Dave. Just hearing the drumming… it’s not him.’ Another wrote: ‘I can’t believe he hopped on for that.’
The drumming in the video sounds solid, good, but is it Dave Grohl level good? Fans who know Grohl’s playing style, claim that the style doesn’t quite match Dave’s iconic, hard-hitting precision. And fair enough, Dave’s drumming is kind of unmistakable.
Another thing raising eyebrows: the so-called ‘Dave’ in the video is never clearly shown. No close-ups, no signature Grohl charm beaming at the crowd. For someone like Dave Grohl, who’s known for connecting with fans no matter the setting, that feels a bit suspicious, doesn’t it?
And here’s the thing—if you’ve ever seen Dave Grohl perform live, you know he is high on energy. The drummer in this video? Not exactly bringing that same fire.
Dave Grohl never misses a chance to share the stage with talented fans. In 2021, Foo Fighters performed “Everlong” with 11-year-old drummer at The Forum in Inglewood, California.
