Dave Grohl
Most people think that Jason Bonham, the son of the late Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, should play drums on the legendary rock group's "reunion" tour, but Foo Fighters' Dave Grohl thinks he should get the job instead.

"Here's my new mission. Led Zeppelin is doing a reunion tour. John Paul Jones, Robert Plant. I gotta get that drumming gig. I gotta do it if Starkey don't get it," Dave tells writer JT LeRoy in the next issue of Flaunt magazine. (Starkey, of course, being Ringo Starr's drummerboy Zak Starkey, another obvious choice.)

"This is my mission. I have John Bonham tattoos ... one on my wrist, one on my shoulder, another on my shoulder. This is the first time I've ever said this in an interview. When I was a kid, I actually had this freaky séance thing where I lit all these candles and I was sitting in front of this three-circled thing, like I sold my soul to Led Zeppelin. It's so retarded."

Yes, Dave, it is.
