Foo Fighters formed a "superdupergroup" with the members of two legendary bands while they made a tour stop in England over the weekend. Taking over the Milton Keynes National Bowl on Saturday, September 5, Dave Grohl and Co. brought out Queen's drummer Roger Taylor and Led Zeppelin's bassist John Paul Jones mid-show for an amazing performance of Queen's "Under Pressure".
"Now look. I don't know if y'all have ever seen a supergroup. This is a 'superdupergroup,' " Grohl told the crowd as his guests walked onto the stage. "I don't even know what to say because this kind of s**t doesn't happen every day. Let me just tell you that the Foo Fighters, right now, are living out our rock n' roll fantasy with you tonight."
A part of Foo Fighters' "Sonic Highways" tour, the Saturday concert was the band's first in the U.K. since Grohl was forced to cancel a string of shows in the country after breaking his leg earlier this year.
The rockers' performance of "Under Pressure" was a tribute to Queen's late frontman Freddie Mercury, who would celebrate his 69th birthday that night if he were alive.
