Grohl commented “That’s the great things about a Foo Fighters show”.
Still sitting on crutches after breaking his foot earlier in the summer, Grohl gets up and has Anthony sit in his chair. “OK, I think this is how you’re supposed to play the drums. I mean put me at the fucking Grammys, and I know everybody there, and I’ve got a bottle of whiskey in my hands the whole time, but we’ll see what happens”. Grohl spoke to the audience with humility and comedy about what he had just done, while laying on the floor in the front row awaiting EMT’s.
‘When you accomplish something like that, you do feel a bit of pride because nobody told you what to do, ‘ he said.
After urging the crowd not to let Anthony cry again, Grohl stands and sings to Anthony, encouraging him to join in throughout.
And now, The Grohlenator has made a fully grown man cry during a recent Foo’s concert in Denver, Colarado, and responded with perhaps one of the best Good-Guy-Grohl moments yet.

At one point, Grohl asks the crowd to sing to Anthony, putting him in the spot as the hero of the night. Grohl teased the man briefly but obviously touched by the fan’s Public Display of Emotion, he invited him on stage and dedicated the rest of the song to him.
