The huge sticks went on display at the Warren Amphitheater in Grohl's hometown of Warren, Ohio at the weekend in honour of the Foos frontman and former Nirvana drummer.

As a gesture of thanks, Grohl tweeted "To the wonderful city of Warren, from the bottom of my heart I'd like to thank you all so much... For the childhood memories. For my family. For my very own alley. For the world's largest drumsticks! And for all of your support... But most of all for being such a great community. One that makes me proud to say... I am from Warren, Ohio!"

The sticks are made from two poplar logs and they will be exhibited at the city's amphitheater until September before being moved to Dave Grohl Alley, which was opened in 2009.
