Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian’s 12-year-old son, Revel, lived out a rock star fantasy by jamming out with Foo Fighters on “Everlong.”
In a video of the jam session filmed by Anthrax (and Pantera) drummer, Charlie Benante, Revel can be seen playing Pat Smear’s Les Paul alongside Dave Grohl and rest of Foo Fighters, chugging out a guitar part for the beloved tune. Ian posted the clip on Wednesday with the caption: “Rev gave Pat the day off. He deserves it.“
Continuing, Ian expressed his gratitude for Smear and the rest of Foo Fighters. “He’s the nicest guy ever,” he wrote. “All of these dudes are. I love you Foos. There, I said it.” Ian then closed out his message with “#hugs.”

Revel previously appeared on-stage with Foo Fighters in September 2019, performing “Everlong” during their headlining set at the Bourbon & Beyond Fest in Louisville, Kentucky. Last year, Revel — now 12 years old — and his band, Honeybee, shared their self-titled debut album.
Foo Fighters’ rehearsal comes ahead of their upcoming tour dates, including an Australian leg this winter and a run of stadium shows in North America next year. Check out the band’s full list of upcoming dates, and grab your tickets here.
Foo Fighters’ rehearsal space of choice is Grohl’s Studio 606 complex in Los Angeles, which also happens to be where Anthrax has been busy recording their first new album in a decade. Just days ago, Grohl stopped by their recording session to cheer the band on and play a cover of Nirvana’s “Scentless Apprentice.” Anthrax posted photos from the session, and a little bit of fun foreshadowing: Revel is pictured smiling alongside them and Grohl.
Beyond sitting in with them, Revel and his dad have covered Foo Fighters too. In 2022, the two released a multi-song tribute to the band’s late drummer, Taylor Hawkins. Before that, they shared covers of Sepultura, System of a Down, and more.
