So, you want to know about the drama-filled world of rock drummers? Well, buckle up, folks, because Ilan Rubin, the new drummer for the FOO FIGHTERS, is spilling all the tea 🍵! In a recent interview with Go With Elmo, Rubin talked about how he landed the gig, and let me tell you, it’s a wild ride 🎢. Apparently, Dave Grohl, the frontman of the FOO FIGHTERS, just casually called him up and was like, “Hey, Ilan, want to be our new drummer?” And Rubin was all, “Uh, sure, I guess 🤷♂️.” I mean, who wouldn’t want to join one of the most iconic rock bands of all time, right? 🤟
But, of course, there’s more to the story than that. Rubin had to audition for the role, and let me tell you, it was a real nail-biter 🎬. He had to play all the FOO FIGHTERS’ hits, and I’m sure he was just sweating bullets 💦 the whole time. I mean, can you imagine having to play “Everlong” in front of Dave Grohl? 🙅♂️ Talk about pressure! But, apparently, Rubin nailed it, and the rest is history 📚.
Now, you might be wondering, what about Josh Freese, the drummer who left the FOO FIGHTERS to join NINE INCH NAILS? 🤔 Well, Rubin says it’s all just a big coincidence 🙄. He claims that he didn’t know Freese was leaving the FOO FIGHTERS, and that he just happened to be available at the right time 🕰️. Yeah, sure, Ilan, we believe you 🙄. But, hey, who needs drama when you can just have a good old-fashioned rock ‘n’ roll story, right? 🤘
Rubin also talked about his experience playing with NINE INCH NAILS, and let me tell you, it sounds like a real blast 🎉. He said that Trent Reznor is a total genius 🤓, and that playing with the band was an incredible experience 🎊. But, of course, all good things must come to an end, and Rubin had to leave the band to join the FOO FIGHTERS 🚫.
So, what’s next for Rubin and the FOO FIGHTERS? 🤔 Well, they’re currently touring and playing all their hits 🎸, and Rubin says it’s been an amazing experience 🤩. He’s loving every minute of it, and who can blame him? 🙃 I mean, who wouldn’t want to play sold-out shows and rock out with one of the most iconic bands of all time? 🤟 It’s a tough job, but someone’s gotta do it, right? 😜
In conclusion, the world of rock drummers is a wild and crazy place 🌪️, full of twists and turns 🔄.
