This past weekend Dave Grohl and the rest of the Foo Fighters hit Grohl's hometown of Warren, OH for a gig and got a little surprise on the side. City officials have already given him his own street, Dave Grohl Alley and now they've given him the world's largest set of drum sticks. 900lbs. to be exact!! The sticks were made from poplar trees and were set up outside the ampitheatre Saturday night. They'll stay there until they are moved and placed permanently at Grohl Alley. The Foo Fighters frontman and Nirvana drummer was more than taken away by the gesture of his hometown, as per his Twitter:
To the wonderful city of Warren, from the bottom of my heart I'd like to thank you all so much. For the childhood memories. For my family. For my very own alley. For the world's largest drumsticks! And for all of your support. But most of all for being such a great community. One that makes me proud to say I am from Warren, Ohio!
