Many of these same names appeared at Foo Fighters’ first Taylor Hawkins tribute concert in London earlier this month. That concert spanned six hours and saw 50 songs performed; Foo Fighters served as a backing band for much of the evening before staging their own headlining set. Highlights included Taylor Hawkins’ son, Shane, joining Foo Fighters on drums for “My Hero,” and Dave Grohl’s daughter covering Jeff Buckley and Amy Winehouse songs. What’s more, Them Crooked Vultures reunited for their first performance in 12 years, and Paul McCartney made a surprise appearance.
Tickets and merchandise sales from both Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concerts will benefit Music Support and MusiCares per the Hawkins family’s request.
