I remember several years ago some friends who own a record store and a tee shirt shop told me they were designating an alleyway in his name and were inviting him to come for the unveiling. I laughed at their naivety and unrealistic dreams. They dedicated the alley and Grohl showed up. I ate those words and gained more respect for the Foo Fighter front man.

A couple years later my friend who own a record store here invited him to stop in for Record Store Day. I kept my mouth shut on that on, and it's a good thing because they were playing Cleveland that week. Grohl came wheeling in on a Harley and had the Fighters play a short concert in the empty store next door to the Record Connection.

What a guy and a hometown hero. I took some pix of Dave Grohl Alley:
