Once again, Dave Grohl has reaffirmed his status in my mind as my idol.

Dave Grohl has said he will go drinking with two miners who listened to his band while they were trapped underground for two weeks. The men were stuck in a Tasmanian mine when it collapsed in May, and passed the time listening to the Foo Fighters on MP3 players handed to them.

Grohl said he would meet the two when the band tour Australia in November.

"I'm not just having one beer with those dudes - we're going for it," he said. "This is going to be a big night."
