There is very little that Foo Fighters haven't done in their storied 31 year career. The band started by Dave Grohl as a solo project in the wake of the passing of his Nirvana bandmate Kurt Cobain have become true global superstars, racking up number one albums across the globe, and headlining some of the most iconic music festivals on earth. But as Grohl's band gear up for the April release of their twelfth studio album, Your Favorite Toy, they have been reminded that there remains one major landmark achievement that they've yet to tick off.
In an interview conducted for Kerrang! Radio by DJ Sophie K, it was put to Grohl that his band have yet to play Download festival in the UK. The DJ told Grohl that, every year, commentators on the Download website forums express their hopes that Foo Fighters will be announced to play, but those hopes and dreams have yet to materialise.
