On Saturday, Foo Fighters performed at Brazil’s Rock In Rio where Grohl revealed to the crowd their plans to work on new music.

“I don’t know when we’ll be back down here again, but we will,” Grohl said. “We go home next week and we start making a new Foo Fighters record. It’s good, it’s good.”

Last week, the band released a surprise EP “01070725” that features a few live recordings, some demo songs and a few covers.

Foo Fighters released live covers of Arcade Fire’s “Keep The Car Running” and Dead Kennedys’ “Holiday In Cambodia” on the EP. Both of those were recorded in 2007.

The band did not post on social media about the new EP, so it showed up on streaming services as a surprise.

The Foo Fighters just made Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian’s son the happiest kid alive as they brought the eight-year-old on stage to perform with them during a gig.

Ian’s son Revel joined the band during their set at the Bourbon & Beyond festival in Louisville, Kentucky.

Ian shared the moment on Instagram of his son jamming out on guitar to “Everlong” with his “favorite band”.

“Because it’s a special occasion, we’re going to bring out somebody that’s going to play guitar with us on this song,” Dave Grohl said to the crowd before introducing Revel.

Revel was a natural, sporting a sleeveless denim jacket covered with studs and throwing out the bull-horns like a natural.

“Proudest dad moment ever? How about when your son gets to join his favorite band on stage to play Everlong in front of 40,000 people and NAILS IT! Thank you Dave, Taylor, Pat, Nate, Chris, Rami, Gus, Kerwin, Sean, Patrick, Simone and everyone else on the Foo crew for being the best!!! “ Ian captioned his video of the moment.

You can see Revel kill it with the Foo Fighters in the video below.
