The Foo Fighters have been playing intimate shows to preview material from their upcoming album Wasting Light, but at a gig last week in Cologne, Germany, Dave Grohl and crew delivered a blistering set that featured the LP in its entirety. A crisp bootleg of the show has surfaced online. Check it out HERE!
“We’re gonna be here a while so get comfortable,” says Grohl at the start of the show, which was organized for contest winners of German radio station 1Live. “It’s gonna be a long fucking night! Ready?” And with that…they’re off, delivering a non-stop 98-minute set that starts with the tinnitus-inducing riffs of “Bridge Burning” and wraps with the Foo’s classic anthem “Everlong.”
As SPIN previously reported, the Foo’s new album finds Dave Grohl revisiting his grunge roots. The ex-Nirvana drummer tapped bandmate Krist Novoselic to contribute bass to the record, while Nevermind producer Butch Vig helmed the sessions. Nirvana’s touring guitarist Pat Smear — who played with Grohl in the Foos’ early days — has also re-joined the band on the road.
