Frankly, if Dave Grohl was any nicer he'd be a Disney princess. A very hairy Disney princess.

Already known for being an almost unreasonably good guy in an industry which generally rewards bastardry instead, the Foo Fighters' main man has added to his list of good works by helping make a dying Australian's wish come true.

The NSW south coast man, Ken Powell, is known to some as Ken The Foo Fighter for his devotion to the band. How devoted? After a 14-year fight with melanoma, Powell still set himself to see the Foo Fighters at every show of their recent Australian tour.

Powell, who needs a wheelchair much of the time, also had a further, final goal: to meet Grohl, Pat Smear, Taylor Hawkins, Chris Shiflett and Nate Mendel.
