LONDON, Aug. 2 (UPI) — Foo Fighters front man Dave Grohl says the makers of an epic viral video have convinced him and his bandmates to book a concert in the Italian city of Cesena.
The clip featuring a 1,000 musicians performing “Learn to Fly” in a field has gotten nearly 16 million views since it was posted on YouTube Thursday.
It was intended to persuade the rock group to add the town to its tour schedule.
The stunt apparently worked because Grohl responded with his own video, saying in Italian that Foo Fighters will, indeed, be playing Cesena some time in the near future. No date for the show was mentioned, however.
“Hello Cesena. It’s David. Hi. I am sorry I don’t speak Italian, just a bit, a bit. This video, was good! Super nice. Thank you so much. We’re coming, I swear. We’ll see each other soon. Thank you so much. I love you. Ciao,” the BBC translated Grohl’s message as saying.
