Dave Grohl, Bruce Kalman, Duff Goldman and Nick Shipp cooked both onstage and at the BBQ at the Eat, Drink and Support music and food festival on Saturday, Dec. 22, raising thousands of dollars for the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank at its 100,000-square-foot facility in Vernon on Saturday.

“We want to help because we can and because we should,” Kalman told L.A. Weekly.

The food bank was started in 1973 by Tony Collier. Since then, the L.A. Regional Food Bank has distributed the equivalent of more than 1 billion meals across the L.A. community.
