Foo Fighters

Foo Fighters were formed by Dave Grohl in Seattle, Washington in 1995.  While Dave was drumming with Nirvana, he was recording original songs at home that never received public release. Those tapes would become the foundation of Foo Fighters after the death of Kurt Cobain. Like Nirvana, Foo Fighters melded loud, heavy guitars with pretty melodies and mixed punk sensibilities with a sharp sense of pop songwriting.  Foo Fighters play the ACC March 22nd.

For 100 free Jack Nation points, answer the following rock trivia question correctly:

The band got their name, Foo Fighters after a World War II secret force that allegedly researched what?

A) Volcanoes

B) Earthquakes

C) UFOs

Leave your answer under “comments” and I’ll send you a bonus code on Boxing Day if you get it right.

Merry Christmas!

Cheers,

 Mike
