Finally band geeks can get some goddamn recognition around here. Because let's face it, you probably weren't the coolest kid in high school and you had to wear those dorky costumes at football games. We can only hope that these entertaining memes will serve as some sort of consolation prize!

The Foo Fighters have had a fantastic year so far but nothing good lasts forever. The band is currently taking a break and rumors have started about a split. Have tensions between Dave Grohl and his drummer Taylor Hawkins risen so high that Grohl has decided to go solo? Finally, this official video has the answers you were looking for.
Maybe they just need some downtime to actually enjoy their success after a whirlwind tour and a surprise album release in 2015.
We assume the "break" is so drummer Taylor Hawkins can focus on his cover band Chevy Metal:

David Spargo apparently really wanted to meet the band "Peking Duk," so much so that he was willing to poorly edit the band's Wikipedia entry in order to convince a security guy he belonged backstage. Lucky for him, it worked.
The ill-placed and poorly formatted "Family David Spargo" was legit enough to dupe a surprisingly gullible security guard into letting David past him, where he introduced himself to the band:
"We ended up having a bunch of beers with him and he was an absolute legend. He wasn’t a creep or anything. He was like the most normal dude we’ve ever met. That’s what makes it more hilarious."
Was it worth it? Absolutely.
Would it work a second time? Probably not.
Playing in band and then a rest appears. WE WILL ALL DIE!!!
At long last, we've discovered the reason for the breakup between Blake Sennett and Jenny Lewis! - Matty Malaprop
