Foo Fighters Covering The Who
Last week I posted about VH1’s Rock Honors: The Who, footage of the Foo Fighters performing “Bargain” (with Supergrass’ Gaz Coombes on vocals), is now available online over at VH1’s site.
Dave Grohl appears to be rocking out on some strange electric guitar…I think it might be a Gibson. If anyone reading this knows, please leave a comment and enlighten me as I’m mainly a Fender guy.
The event took place last Saturday at UCLA’s Pauley Pavilion and also featured Pearl Jam, The Flaming Lips, Incubus and Tenacious D as well as The Who themselves. The telecast premieres tomorrow.

Led Zeppelin and The Foo Fighters?
After a week of being away I’m back and there has been a ton of news and tidbits to report on…which I will try to catch up on this week. Here’s what I was checking out today though…
The Foo Fighters were joined by Led Zeppelin members Jimmy Page and Jon Paul Jones last Saturday, (June 7th) at Wembley Stadium in London.
“Drummer Taylor Hawkins took the microphone for the former, while frontman Dave Grohl sang the latter. Grohl, a lifelong Zeppelin fanatic who was on hand for the group’s one-off reunion last December in London, told the crowd Satruday’s experience constituted “the greatest day of my entire life.”
