Everyone has an idol, somebody they look up to.
As an aspiring punk kid, Dave Grohl took inspiration from Ian MacKaye. Penning the Minor Threat/Fugazi musician a fan letter, it seems that the innocent missive has recently been uncovered.
Ian MacKaye found the letter, sending it on to Dave Grohl. Now a globally recognised rock star, the Nirvana drummer turned Foo Fighters frontman posted a segment of the letter online.
Check it out below.
Look what my hero Ian Mackaye (Minor Threat/Fugazi) just found: a letter I wrote to him when I was 14! Haha! pic.twitter.com/Ak8gxZz5m6
