In November 1994, Dave Grohl played alongside Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers on Saturday Night Live, serving as their temporary drummer. At the time, the band were in search for a new stickman, following the departure of original member Stan Lynch.
While he'd eventually go on to recruit Steve Ferrone, Petty would first offer the position to Grohl, who gave an impressive performance behind the kit during their brief onstage collaboration, and was, at the time, in-between projects due to the April 1994 death of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain.
