Enjoying Foos Files? Support the show with a one-off tip. -- Summary It's been a busy week for Foo Fighters on the airwaves. In this news round-up, we recap three major media appearances by the band – so if you've missed them, you're covered. Dave Grohl sat down with Jimmy Kimmel as the band began a week-long residency on Jimmy Kimmel Live, reflecting on meeting Taylor Hawkins for the first time, the advice he gives daughter Violet on the road, and the stories behind new songs 'Window' and 'Child Actor'. Dave then dialled into The Morning Rumble on New Zealand radio station The Rock ahead of the band's shows in Christchurch and Auckland in January, talking new venues, how the setlist is put together and the "tearful" moment he jammed 'Highway to Hell' with AC/DC. Finally, Chris Shiflett called in to Guys @ 5 on KSVY in California to preview his first solo shows in a couple of years – and opened up on how losing his home in the Palisades fire put his solo career on hold.
