For those of us who didn’t make it to Glastonbury last week, Guns N’ Roses is sharing one of the UK festival’s biggest moments.
The band has shared pro-shot video of their set-closing performance of “Paradise City” – featuring special guest star Dave Grohl.
Introducing Grohl to the stage, Guns N’ Roses frontman announced, “There’s never such a thing as too many guitars.”
Grohl was a busy man during the festival – the Foo Fighters played a surprise set on Friday, and he also played drums for The Pretenders’ set on Saturday. During the group’s surprise appearance at Glastonbury, frontman Dave Grohl dedicated “Everlong” to their late drummer. The band played the festival slot marked for the ChurnUps, but leading up to the festival fans speculated that the ChurnUps was a cover for the Foo Fighters.
“You guys f***ing knew it was us this whole time, didn’t you?” Grohl asked the audience. “It’s nice to see you guys after all this time.”
“But I would like to thank every one of you for sticking around for the last 28 years and helping us learn how to start this whole thing over again,” Grohl told the audience. “I’d like to dedicate this song to Mr. Taylor Hawkins. So let’s sing this one loud as s**t for Mr. Taylor.”
Bay Area fans can see the Foo Fighters perform with new drummer Josh Freese at Outside Lands as they headline the festival on Saturday, August 12th.
