How to woo the Foo Fighters - with a viral video and 1,000 rockers
Fabio Zaffagnini loves the American rock group the Foo Fighters - but they've never played in his home city of Cesena near Florence. So he took extreme action to try to lure the band. A year's work culminated in 1,000 willing musicians playing in unison to the band's hit song, "Learn to Fly". The video's been seen more than 20 million times online and now leadsinger Dave Grohl has responding to the appeal. Fabio's been speaking to Newsday's Julian Keane.
