Music news Foo Fighters play the White House on the 4th

Apparently President Obama is a Foo Fighters fan.

According to Rolling Stone, the Foo Fighters — who have been on hiatus since late 2008 — are set to play the White House on July 4 in honor of Independence Day. The band will entertain Obama and company with a short set on the South lawn.
