The Foo Fighters Rickrolled the Westboro Baptist Church Was Beautiful

The Foo Fighters are hated by the Westboro Baptist Church. Given, the Westboro Baptist Church hates many people, but since 2011—when the Practitioners created a phony gay adult, then countered the church’s Kansas City, Mo demonstration by doing “Keep it Clear (Hot Buns)” on the flatbed truck—it’s been secured within an particularly humorous grudge match with Dave Grohl’s group.

On Friday evening, the chapel once more picketed the group in Iowa City—until, that’s, Grohl and buddies went by in a collection blaring Ron Astley’s “Never Gonna Provide You With Up.” As Standing publisher Gabriel Roth records, this isn’t, within the strictest sense, a Rickroll (that will need the great ol’ url lure-and-change), but it’s nevertheless some expert trolling from the Foo. WBC, your transfer.
