(Radio.com) After Richmond successfully crowd-funded a Foo Fighters concert in their city, the idea seems to have struck a chord in other Foo-loving towns. But, not simply wanting to repeat a previous success story, an Italian village has come up with a unique plan to get the successful rock band to visit their home (via Stereogum).

As portrayed in a new online video, the locals of Cesena, Italy, are assembling a 1,000 person Foo Fighters cover band to record a version of their hit, "Learn to Fly."

Apparently the move is to impress the band, who are on the verge of launching a massive support effort of their recent Sonic Highways album in 2015. Ideally, Dave Grohl and company will be so enamored that they will make Cesena an impromptu tour stop.

Check out the promotional video for the attempt to woo Foo Fighters here.
