As promised, Dave Grohl today (Wednesday) posted his complete Instagram Story about the time David Bowie told him in an e-mail to “[eff] off.”
In the 10-page screed, the head Foo Fighter uses reading that line from the late singer as a launching point for all his intersections with the Thin White Duke, from listening to David Live as a kid, to playing “The Man Who Sold the World” at Nirvana’s MTV Unplugged taping, to participating in Bowie’s 50th birthday concert at Madison Square Garden, to guesting on a Bowie recording at a studio in L.A.
We won’t spoil the ending, which you can read on Grohl’s Instagram Story (@davestruestories), but we will say it’s worth your time and effort.
