Dave Grohl BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Dave Grohl has been the center of rock and roll buzz over the past few days after orchestrating one of his most playful and headline-grabbing stunts in recent memory. Over the weekend, Grohl set social media alight by posting a shot of himself on Instagram suited in a purple Adidas tracksuit famously worn by Korn, cheekily captioned, “This time of year always makes me think of Kornfields.” The move immediately drew an enthusiastic response from Korn's Jonathan Davis, who offered to send Grohl one of his own suits, along with hype from James “Munky” Shaffer and Ray Luzier. The playful post was, in fact, teed up as a cryptic hint: Foo Fighters were about to announce a surprise pop-up show in Bakersfield—Korn’s hometown. Consequence of Sound and Loudwire both highlighted the Instagram moment and the ensuing flood of fan and artist comments.
The next morning, Foo Fighters officially confirmed an intimate show at The Nile Theater in Bakersfield for Monday, with tickets vanishing as soon as they dropped in person at the Fox Theater box office. Local press noted hundreds lined up and the speed with which tickets sold out, reflecting both the band’s enduring draw and fan readiness for a rare club gig. This event added to a string of recent pop-up concerts following the band’s live run in September, making these some of the first shows with new drummer Ilan Rubin at the kit.
The Bakersfield performance boasted a mammoth 26-song setlist, including the live debut of Foo Fighters’ cover of Minor Threat’s "I Don’t Wanna Hear It," a rarity first recorded back in 1995. Mainstays like "All My Life," "The Pretender," "Times Like These," and "Everlong" were, as always, met with thunderous reception. Community engagement extended beyond the stage: local record shop Going Underground ran a raffle for show tickets and a highly-coveted mixtape curated by Grohl himself, featuring cuts from Fugazi, The Jesus Lizard, L7, Shellac, St. Vincent, Jockstrap, Beastie Boys, and more.
On the business front, the Foo Fighters used this momentum to underscore their upcoming Take Cover Tour 2026. Announced on October 23 with stadium dates across North America, the tour will see Queens of the Stone Age joining as support, while smaller acts like Mannequin Pussy and Gouge Away rotate in select cities. At the same time, Foo Fighters dropped another new single, “Asking for a Friend”—the second of 2025—hinting, in Grohl’s words, at “many songs to come.”
Meanwhile, Grohl and wife Jordyn Blum were spotted at a charity event, making a rare public appearance according to AOL. There’s currently no confirmed Foo Fighters-Korn collaboration brewing, but fans are eager for more cross-band antics given how prominently the story played out online and in music media. No rumors of personal controversy have surfaced—speculation remains on planned future albums and the meaning behind these intimate “where will they play next?” shows, but for now, Dave Grohl is riding high on creative spontaneity and rock showmanship.
