The Foo Fighters will be hosting a fundraising concert for President Obama's re-election campaign.
The afternoon concert—for which organizers hope to sell approximately 1,000 tickets-will be held at the home of soap opera writer/producer Bradley Bell in Holmby Hills, California on February 15, with ticket prices ranging between $235 to $1,500. A post-concert dinner will be held by Bell and his wife Colleen, with Will Ferrell co-hosting the $35,800-per-plate event.
Said Grohl of his band's decision to hold the event: "I would hate to hand the administration over to another party that is just focused on corporations, greed and money. You know, I'm a fun, peace-loving guy, but sometimes the right wing gets a little too selfish."
He added of Obama, whom he has vocally supported for years: "He's got the toughest job on earth."
