Dave Grohl sorts out Hawkins and Lemmy

Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl says he healed a rift between Justin Hawkins of The Darkness and Motorhead's Lemmy by bringing them together over drinks.

It would seem that what The Killers and The Bravery need is an intervention from Dave Grohl, if he's available. Apparently the Foo Fighters frontman has managed to heal a rift between Justin Hawkins of The Darkness and Motorhead's Lemmy.

Grohl said: "Justin told me that the band had a beef with Lemmy. So I called Lemmy on the cell. He lives a block away. Lemmy had said he didn't like Justin's voice and Justin had said something back. You know... playground crap. Probably journalists stoking it all up and making work for Uncle Dave. But I sat them down with a couple of drinks and - hey presto! - you got a monsters of rock summit."
