This must be some kind of Guinness World Record. In Cesena, Italy, a thousand local musicians took part in a monumental cover of the Foo Fighters’ classic, “Learning to Fly”. Classic meaning lots of people know this song. Classic not meaning really great song that I’d like to hear over and over.
The effort was an attempt to convince the band to play the smaller Italian city. Did it work? Perhaps. The Foos tweeted out a couple of tweets in Italian.
