Here’s a phone interview with Dave Grohl on the eve of Them Crooked Vulture's Australian tour.  He explains the origins of the new super group, which had its beginnings at Dave’s 40th birthday party at Medieval Times (I’m sure there’s some sort of joke in there).  He also talks about how he ended up playing on Slash’s new album that’s coming out. 
 
 
We get to see the man we hate the most behind the drums two weeks in a row as Them Crooked Vultures will be on Austin City Limits on February 13th (following the Feb 6 performances on Saturday Night Live) on your favorite PBS affiliate.  The episode actually taped on Sep 30 last year, after they only had a few shows under their belts, so it should prove interesting.  Watch a preview video of John Paul Jones (Led Zeppelin bass player), Josh Homme, Dave Grohl and some other dude playing slide guitar performing New Fang off their new album:
 
 
That's right ladies and gents, the critically acclaimed group, Them Crooked Vultures,  featuring Dave Grohl on drums, John Paul Jones on bass and Josh Homme on guitar and vocals is going to be on SNL a week from this Saturday.  So set your VCR's, DVR's, catch it later on the interweb or just stay up late to check them out.  Apparently this will be the first time that John Paul Jones (from Led Zeppelin) will have been on the show.  It will be Dave Grohl's seventh.

I hate Dave Grohl.
