Grohl refutes death claims

Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl has told NME that internet rumours of his death are untrue, saying friends had even left condolence messages for his wife Jordyn.

Foo Fighters man Dave Grohl says that recent internet rumours of his death have been greatly exaggerated, because he is, in fact, alive. He told NME that it got to the stage where even friends believed the rumours and began calling with condolences for Grohl's wife Jordyn: "I got a phone message from a friend saying "Er I guess... Jordyn... this is maybe... for you. I'm so sorry to hear what happened". I heard this message and went 'What the fuck?'. They were leaving a message on my cell phone saying 'I'm sorry Dave died'."

He continued: "That was weird, but I guess I've finally graduated to that status of being an internet rumour. It weirded me out a bit, but it's stupid. I'm like a cockroach, don't worry, I'll be around for a long time."
