Watch Foo Fighters Cover “Under Pressure” With Queen’s Roger Taylor & Led Zeppelin’s John Paul Jones
After Dave Grohl took his spectacular tumble earlier this year, Foo Fighters were forced to cancel a number of dates in the UK, including Glastonbury Fest. Last night, the band finally made their triumphant return to the UK in Milton Keyes — “We came back for you,” Dave Grohl declared. “We waited a long time to be here.” During their recent shows, Grohl has been bringing out a whole bunch of special guests to make up for his lack of mobility, and last night he continued the streak, covering Queen and David Bowie’s “Under Pressure” — which Foo Fighters have covered before — with Queen’s Roger Taylor & Led Zeppelin bassist/Grohl’s former Them Crooked Vultures bandmate John Paul Jones. As Grohl announced before launching into the performance, “I don’t know if y’all have ever seen a supergroup. This is a super-duper group … Let me just tell you that the Foo Fighters, right now, are living out our rock and roll fantasy with you tonight.” Watch below.
