'Che bello, Cesena' (live) - Learn To Fly - Cesna Italy by Rockin 1000 (A thousand Italian musicians)
“"The project is the brainchild of (Foo fighter) superfan #FabioZaffagnini, who calls it "a miracle that will not be repeated ever again in the music history". Whether it is the biggest band ever assembled for one song isn't yet known but it seems possible... A year in the making, Zaffagnini and his team raised $67,000 with a crowdfunding campaign to get the Rockin' 1000 project off the ground. At the end of the song Zaffagnini addresses the camera. "I guess this video is going to be seen by a huge amount of people all over the world, but to be true it's been conceived to be addressed just to five people," he says. "So to Chris, Pat, Nate, Taylor and Dave Grohl, the Foo Fighters. Italy is a country where dreams cannot easily come true, but it's a land of passion and creativity. So what we did here is just a huge miracle." <http://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/music/1000-foo-fighters-fans-stunning-performance-of-learn-to-fly-a-plea-to-play-in-italy-20150731-giodu0.html>; "”

The residents of Cesena, Italy make a special request for the Foo Fighters to come and play their hometown.

Once upon a time, this guy wanted his fave band The Foo Fighters to play in Cesena, Italy. People said it couldn't happen. He didn't listen to them. Instead he turned to fellow fans and fellow musicians, and they came from all over Italy to perform together. One performance. One song. One thousand people. Two hundred and fifty each of singers, guitarists, bassists, and drummers. I get chills watching this. If you don't get chills, I don't know what to tell you. I can't speak Italian, but Fabio Zaffagnini speaks rock n roll. I hear that. Music is the language of the universe. This event has never happened before. This will probably never happen again. This is rock and roll history, right here. Even if The Foo Fighters don't play Cesena, Fabio Zaffagnini and his Rockin 1000s of friends have made something very special out of something very special to them. Share and enjoy. This should be a shout heard round the world. Is this gonna be a happy ending fairy tale? We don't know yet.
