In May 1998, when the Foo Fighters lit up the Roseland Ballroom, they were riding high on the momentum of their second studio album, "The Colour and the Shape." Released just a year prior, in 1997, this album catapulted them into the mainstream, featuring hits like "Everlong" and "My Hero." It's fascinating to note that at this point in their career, they were still navigating a phase of intense growth and change. This concert captured a band on the brink of superstardom, with their signature high-energy performances beginning to solidify their reputation.
