OVER THE WEEKEND, Foo Fighters played a concert in Nashville, Tennessee.
At this gig, they decided to bring an 8-year-old boy from Venezuela on stage so that he could showcase his serious musical talent for the crowd of 20,000.
The young drummer, known as Little Fonzie, took over for the band's drummer Taylor Hawkins and proceeded to do a drum solo that was almost 3.5 minutes long.

He was clearly having the time of his life, because he did not have any plans to clear off.
"Hey, uh, do you want a Coke?" Grohl asked, pointing backstage. "They're right over there."
Once the little boy had made his way off stage, Dave Grohl told the audience:

Dave Grohl had to coax him off stage with the promise of a Coke, because there's nothing 8-year-old kids love more than a soft drink.
