The Rockin' 1000 project went viral after a video of them playing Foo Fighters surfaced

Rockin ' 1000 , a band made up of a thousand people, shared a video playing "Killing in the Name" by Rage Against The Machine at the Commerzbank-Arena in Frankfurt.

The group became known after recording a video of Foo Fighters in order to get the band's attention and convince them to play a show in the small town of Cesena, Italy. In response, Dave Grohl and company gave a three-hour performance for the musicians.

Rockin' 1000 was founded by six people and accepts applications on its website from any musician who wants to participate. "No rankings, no prizes, no winners, no losers: everyone can be a part of this, whether as an audience member or a member of the 'greatest rock band on Earth'. No barriers here, all emotions are equal, the same intensity," the band wrote on its website.
