It turns out we actually did it and Dave Grohl is finally going to host. My hands were shaking when I read the news because this felt like such a long shot for so long. Thank you for staying with me through all the times it felt like nothing was …

This as a petition to generate awareness to Lorne Michaels and the executives at NBC and Saturday Night Live so they know that the fans (Grohlies) want Dave Grohl to host SNL with musical guest Foo Fighters.

There have been numerous musicians who have hosted SNL over the years, however Dave Grohl is the only one to appear on the show over 12 times and frequent in sketches, but never host!

News Announcement
This petition has started getting press! Thanks to the media, online music sites, bloggers and all the ‘Grohlies’ around the world who have signed and shared this petition.

Let's continue to let our voices be heard by signing and sharing. We can make this happen, this year!

The grind is exhausting but I am still here pushing for this goal. We are near 5,000 signatures and I need you to reach out to people personally to get us over this hump today.

Seeing the momentum grow is draining but it proves we are not alone in this demand. I am exhausted by the silence from those in charge yet I refuse to let this goal fall away.

The silence from the office at NBC is heavy but I am not stopping this effort. Looking through the comments keeps me going because it is clear that I am not the only one who thinks this is long overdue.

My 16 year old daughter is a BAD ASS drummer on her way to Berklee in the fall. Dave Grohl is one of her idols and is a driving force behind her love for drums! He is looked up to by legions of kids BUT also adults like myself! I WANT MY DAVE TV.......on SNL!!

Dave Grohl is on of the funniest and engaging figures in the world of rock and pop, he has grown to become an American treasure. So not featuring him in hosting duties on the American comedy institution of SNL, would be a real bummer.

He's such a cool guy -- I was at Bamboozle 2012 for his gig when he flew by helicopter to keep his commitment to play on SNL that same night. Have him host the show -- he's proven his talent at comedy & you'll garner a whole new demographic of fans!!!

Dave Grohl would be great to host SNL! Besides being a fan of his music, I find him quite entertaining (like when he hosted the Chelsea Lately show). When it comes to performance, I don't think there is anyone in the rock world as funny or entertaining as Dave Grohl!

Dave Grohl needs to host SNL! He would attract so many viewers - he's rock royalty, a multi Grammy winner, an Emmy winning documentarian, he has a killer sense of humor, and he's probably the nicest guy in rock! Get with it Lorne, book Dave ASAP!

Going past his amazing musical talent, Dave is also a great personality. Look at the music video for "Big Me" and even the Ice bucket challenge they did in the style of "Carrie". SNL would be stupid not to let him host. Good luck Dave

Get rid of his appearances. He went after Taylor Swift who has never had b even one bad thing publicly about this man who is OLD ENOUGH TO BE HER FATHER.
