Summary

Foo Fighters' line-up has featured three modern drumming greats.

Boll3t gives his take on how each drummer's approach, energy and technique has helped shape the sound of the Foo Fighters.

We also hear about the Brazilian-born musician's career as a producer and songwriter, his forthcoming solo album - and how Fooz Fighters have been in high demand across the United States since their successful appearance on the TV show 'Clash of the Cover Bands'.
