Dave Grohl Takes Part in Grease Sing-A-Along

(Radio.com) At famed Los Angeles venue the Hollywood Bowl, the Grease Sing-A-Long has become an annual tradition, with fans packing the amphitheater to belt out the hit songs from the enduring 1978 movie musical starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John. This apparently now involves Dave Grohl.

To mark the film's 35th anniversary for the 2013 event (July 13), the Hollywood Bowl secured actress Didi Conn (she played "Frenchie" in the original movie) and the band Sha Na Na, who were cast as the band Johnny Casino and the Gamblers in Grease and are featured on six songs from the soundtrack.

During Sha Na Na's warm-up set, the Foo Fighters frontman, resplendent in a shiny red blazer, joined the band on drums during a cover of Little Richards' 1957 Grease-era hit, "Lucille."

In fan-shot video from the moment, Grohl can be seen rocking out with the band, with singer John "Jocko" Marcellino shouting-out Grohl's jacket at the song's conclusion. more on this story
