Foo Fighters Rock Cleveland’s Quicken Loans Arena

September 21st, 2011

Dave Grohl and his Foo Fighters landed in Cleveland last night to a packed house at Quicken Loans Arena.

Now, in case you didn’t know, Foo Fighters was a term that World War II pilots used to describe a UFO or other unknown enigmatic aerial objects flying in the skies over Europe and the Pacific.  It was mostly thought that ‘foo fighters’ were secret weapons that our enemies were using…to this day, it is still left unexplained.

Rest In Peace Jane Scott.

She was the journalist that rock legends would always make time to chat with and she called many of them personal friends.

Tonight we remember legendary Plain Dealer rock and roll reporter Jane Scott. She died today at age 92 after a long illness.

Channel 3′s Monica Robins has a unique perspective on Jane’s life. Jane actually interviewed Monica about her band and she knew her as a family friend.
