When we were 10, we were happily gobbling down our chicken drummets but kids nowadays are really up to great things and we are just ‘shooketh’!

10 year-old Nandi Bushell, who has mind-blowing drumming skills, tweeted a video saying that it’s her dream to one day jam with Dave Grohl, Taylor Hawkins and all of the Foo Fighters!
It caught Lenny Kravitz’s attention and the series of events unfolded.
But first, watch this little girl toying around with a pair of sticks while playing Foo Fighter’s 1997 hit, ‘Everlong’!
My dream is to one day jam with Dave Grohl, @taylorhawkins and all the @foofighters! Mr Grohl I would love to have a drum battle with you! I LOVE Everlong it’s really hard to play as it’s so fast but so much FUN! #foofighters pic.twitter.com/Pmdhvl57uu

Whoa! That’s amazing!
That spread like wildfire and soon Dave Grohl (who doesn’t have a Twitter account) responded with a video on the rock band’s official account.
Here’s what he said, and played:
Hey @Nandi_Bushell!

Ooo, a new song challenge! This sounds interesting. To those who didn’t watch the video till the end (we know you sneaky people), Dave played another song called ‘Dead End Friends’ from a band called Dead Crooked Vultures and said “This is my response to your challenge. So now the ball is in your court.”
And of course, Nandi accepted the challenge.. The battle is now on!
The Rock Gods of old! If legend be true. Bonzo, Baker, Peart, Moon, I call on you! These beats give me power, my screams are for you! Mr Grohl is a LEGEND, it’s an honour to battle you! THE GREATEST ROCK BATTLE IN THE HISTORY OF ROCK!!! @foofighters #teamnandi #teamgrohl pic.twitter.com/FmZk9SoPvb

Which team are you on? We are waiting with popcorn to see her masterpiece, hopefully soon.
Are you a fan of the Foo Fighters?
