Solomon Burke I walked out of the Chinese restaurant with a fat check, a record deal, and a box of shrimp egg foo yung! – Solomon Burke
Sky Blu I love Foo with all my heart, that’s my man. Me and him we did this whole thing together. I have him to thank for a lot of stuff that’s going right in my life. Me and him are always good. That’s my uncle. I love him. – Sky Blu
Sheryl Crow It’s interesting when I jog, how much the music makes a difference. You can pretty much count on the Foo Fighters to get your heart rate up. – Sheryl Crow
Redfoo I actually named myself Redfoo because I want a name that describes my energy. Red stands for passion. Foo stands for foolishness and having fun. It’s passionate foolishness. – Redfoo
Rachael Ray My dream job is to be a rock drummer and the alternate drummer for the Foo Fighters. – Rachael Ray
Nate Mendel I have full confidence in the ability of Foo Fighters’ audiences to distinguish between questioning HIV and the obvious value of safe-sex practices. – Nate Mendel
Luke Hemmings I had the Foo Fighters’ ‘Live at Hyde Park’ DVD, and my dad had the AC/DC box set, and I used to watch them all the time. – Luke Hemmings
Joe Walsh I’ve been in all kinds of various arrangements of chain of command, and I was very comfortable – and everybody was – and I think the music shows that. I’m an honorary Foo Fighter, I guess. Or alumni or something. I’m proud to be one. – Joe Walsh
Jim Kerr If you speak to Iggy Pop, John Lydon or the Foo Fighters and ask them to name their favourite three gigs I know the Barrowlands will be there. – Jim Kerr
Jamie Zawinski I don’t get much sense of reward from having discovered how to get the Foo card to coexist with the Bar card. – Jamie Zawinski
Dave Grohl I can understand how some people might resent me for having the audacity to continue playing music, but it’d take a lot more than that to stop me from doing it. I started Foo Fighters because I didn’t want to retreat. – Dave Grohl
