When MTV News caught up with the band on the Grammy red carpet – when they had already won four trophies, including Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance for ‘White Limo,’ Best Rock Song for ‘Walk,’ Best Rock Album for Wasting Light and Best Long Form Music Video for Foo Fighters: Back and Forth – we chatted them up about their pre-show wins, specifically the Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance trophy, which frontman Dave Grohl had expressed earlier was the one he wanted most.
“We got it!” Grohl said. “I feel so bad for the Dream Theater guys, because they actually had a metal performance, we didn’t, but it’s awesome. That’s kind of the coolest song we’ve ever written,” he said of the edgy ‘White Limo.’
