How much does your favourite rock star mean to you? No, really - how much? We're talking actual $$$$ here.

One Foo Fighters fan has put a figure on his idol Dave Grohl, and that figure is $35,000 (approx. €30,000) - and he's asking for help to crowdfund the figure so that he can 'purchase' the frontman and spend time hanging out with him.

Frank Pain, a radio host on Texas station Texas Rock 108, set up a GoFundMe page, saying "I'm his biggest fan and figured I can round up enough scratch to purchase him so we can hang out and high five and shit. Heck, I may give him a bro-hug or two as well."

He continued: "If it is indeed illegal to purchase another human (or if Mr. Grohl isn't a willing purchasee) then I'll spend the money on beer because Dave seems like the kind of person that would want me to drink beer."

On a later update, he revealed that he didn't expect anyone to take the campaign seriously, and would donate any money raised to charity Autism Speaks.

Considering Grohl is allegedly one of the nicest guys in rock - and there's a good cause behind it all - we wouldn't bet against it actually happening.

The fund currently stands at just over $1000 after two days at time of writing, so there's a long way to go.
